Leah is having a brunch. She wants to serve her guests 2 gallons of juice that is 75% orange juice and 25% pineapple juice. She

has several gallons of 100% orange juice. She also has several gallons of a mixture of 60% orange juice and 40% pineapple juice.
How many gallons of each type of juice should Leah combine to make 2 gallons of a juice mixture that is 75% orange juice and 25% pineapple juice?

Let p represent the number of gallons of 100% orange juice and let m represent the number of gallons of the 60% orange juice-40% pineapple juice mixture.

Which of the below equations can represent one of the equations in the system?

A. p = 2 + m

B. 0.6p = 1.5 + m

C. p + 0.6m = 1.5

She wants to serve --------- >  2 gallons of juice that is 75% orange juice and 25% pineapple juice

then 

2*0.75------------------ > 1.5 gallons of orange juice

2*0.25------------------ > 0.5 gallons of pineapple juice


2 gallons------------ >1.5 gallons of orange juice+ 0.5 gallons of pineapple juice

if 1 gallons pineapple juice mixture--------------------- > 0.40 gallons pineapple juice

X------------------------------------------------------------------- > 0.50 gallons pineapple juice

X=50/40=1.25 gallons juice mixture

1.25 mixture gallons---- > 0.50 gallons pineapple juice+0.75 gallons orange juice

Therefore

(2-1.25)=0.75 gallons of orange juice

2 gallons------------ >0.75 gallons of orange juice+ <span>1.25 mixture gallons  </span>

0.75*(p)+1.25*(m)=2--------------- > (0.75/1.25)*(p)+(1.25/1.25)*m=2/1.25

0.60p+m=1.6

 The answer is 0.60p+m=1.6

What’s the pattern of -1, -8, -27, and -64
AURORKA [14]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

a(n) = (-n)^3  where n = 1,2,3,...


Discussion:

The pattern  1,8,27, 64... is immediately recognizable as the the cube of the positive integers. But this question has a minus sign appearing before  each entry, suggesting we try this:


 - 1  =  (-1)^3

 -8  = (-2)^3

-27  = (-3)^3

-64  = (-4)^3

That's what the problem statement asked for . The answer is equivalently

-1 * (n^3)


Thank you,

MrB

Mathematicians 4: Who is Who?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

a. x = -9 or x = -2

b. -5(x - 4)

c. x = -3 or x = 5

d. x = ±7

Step-by-step explanation:

a. First person;

y = x² + 11x + 18

y = x² + 9x + 2x + 18

y = x(x + 9) + 2(x + 9)

y = (x + 9)(x + 2)

y = x = -9 or x = -2

b. Second person;

y = -5x + 20

The common factor is 5.

y = -5(x - 4)

c. Third person;

y = x² - 2x - 15

y = x² - 5x + 3x - 15

y = x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5)

y = (x + 3)(x - 5)

y = x = -3 or x = 5

d. Fourth person;

y = x² - 49

Applying the difference of squares formula;

(a² - b²) = (a - b)(a + b)

y = x² - 49 = x² - 7² = (x - 7)(x + 7)

y = (x - 7)(x + 7)

y = x = ±7

Audrey has $111 to spend on a tennis racket and lessons. The racket costs $55 and the lessons cost $14 per hour. Define a variab
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Audrey can afford 4 hours of lesson.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount Audrey has to spend = $111

Cost of racket = $55

Cost per lesson = $14

Let,

y be the total cost

x be the number of hours

According to given statement;

y = 14x + 55

111 = 14x + 55

111 - 55 = 14x

14x = 56

Dividing both sides by 14

\frac{14x}{14}=\frac{56}{14}\\x=4

Hence,

Audrey can afford 4 hours of lesson.

Please solve this problem because tomorrow is my exam.<br><br>​
jonny [76]

Step-by-step explanation:

a). A = {x  ∈ R  I  5x-8 < 7}

5x - 8 < 7 <=> 5x < 8+7  <=> 5x < 15  =>

x < 3  => A = (-∞ ; 3)

A ∩ N = {0 ; 1 ; 2}

A - N* = (-∞ ; 3) - {1 ; 2}

b).  A = { x ∈ R  I  7x+2 ≤ 9}

7x+2 ≤ 9 <=> 7x ≤ 7  => x ≤ 1 => x ∈ (-∞ ; 1]

A ∩ N = {0 ; 1}

A-N* = (-∞ ; 1)

c). A = { x ∈ R  I  I 2x-1 I < 5}

I 2x-1 I < 5  <=> -5 ≤ 2x-1 ≤ 5  <=>

-4 ≤ 2x ≤ 6  <=> -2 ≤ x ≤ 3  => x ∈ [-2 ; 3]

A ∩ N = {0 ; 1 ; 2 ; 3}

A - N* = [-2 ; 3) - {1 ; 2}

d). A = {x ∈ R I I 6-3x I ≤ 9}

I 6-3x I ≤ 9  <=> -9 ≤ 6-3x ≤ 9  <=>

-15 ≤ -3x ≤ 3 <=> -5 ≤ -x ≤ 3  =>

-3 ≤ x ≤ 5  => x ∈ [-3 ; 5]

A ∩ N = {0 ; 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 ; 5}

A - N* = [-3 ; 5) - {1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4}

How to integrate with steps:<br><br> (4x2-6)/(x+5)(x-2)(3x-1)
joja [24]

\displaystyle\int\frac{4x^2-6}{(x+5)(x-2)(3x-1)}\,\mathrm dx

You have a rational expression whose numerator's degree is smaller than the denominator's. This tells you you should consider a partial fraction decomposition. We want to rewrite the integrand in the form

\dfrac{4x^2-6}{(x+5)(x-2)(3x-1)}=\dfrac a{x+5}+\dfrac b{x-2}+\dfrac c{3x-1}

\implies4x^2-6=a(x-2)(3x-1)+b(x+5)(3x-1)+c(x+5)(x-2)

You can use the "cover-up" method here to easily solve for a,b,c. It involves fixing a value of x to make 2 of the 3 terms on the right side disappear and leaving a simple algebraic equation to solve for the remaining one.

  • If x=-5, then 94=112a\implies a=\dfrac{47}{56}
  • If x=2, then 10=35b\implies b=\dfrac27
  • If x=\dfrac13, then -\dfrac{50}9=-\dfrac{80}9c\implies c=\dfrac58

So the integral we want to compute is the same as

\displaystyle\frac{47}{56}\int\frac{\mathrm dx}{x+5}+\frac{10}{35}\int\frac{\mathrm dx}{x-2}+\frac58\int\frac{\mathrm dx}{3x-1}

and each integral here is trivial. We end up with

\displaystyle\int\frac{4x^2-6}{(x+5)(x-2)(3x-1)}\,\mathrm dx=\frac{47}{56}\ln|x+5|+\frac27\ln|x-2|+\frac5{24}\ln|3x-1|+C

which can be condensed as

\ln\left|(x+5)^{47/56}(x-2)^{2/7}(3x-1)^{5/24}\right|+C
