Answer:
2/3 + 1/5 = 13/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the weight of soymeal be s, and let the weight of cornmeal be c.
You need a total of 280 lb, so that gives us one equation.
s + c = 280
Now we use the protein to write another equation.
The protein in s lb of soymeal is 0.14s.
The protein in c lb of cornmeal is 0.07c.
The protein in 280 lb of 0.09% protein mix is 0.09(280).
This gives us a second equation.
0.14s + 0.07c = 0.09(280)
Now we solve the two equations as a system of equations.
s + c = 280
0.14s + 0.07c = 0.09(280)
Solve the first equation for s and plug in tot eh second equation.
s = 280 - c
0.14(280 - c) + 0.07c = 25.2
39.2 - 0.14c + 0.07c = 25.2
-0.07c = -14
c = 200
Now we substitute c = 200 in the first equation to find s.
s + 200 = 280
s = 80
Answer: 200 lb of soymeal and 80 lb of cornmeal
Answer:
x + y = 4 Equation 1
y = 2x -1 Equation 2
-2x + y = -1
x + y = 4
Subtract
You will get
- 3x = -5
Divide by -3
-3x / -3 = - 5 /-3
x = 5/3
Substitute x into equation 1
x + y = 4
x = 5/3
5/3 + y = 4
y = 4 - 5/3
y = 7/3
x = 5/3 y = 7/3
Hope this helps.
Answer:
Only one circle can be drawn through three non nonlinear points, No circle can be drawn through three nonlinear points
Step-by-step explanation:
A circle has a curve. As long as the three non nonlinear points both have the same amount of distance from the center of the circle it can be a circle drawn. No circle can be drawn through three points on the line.
Answer: 15/4 or 3 3/4
Explanation: You make 2 1/2 into 5/2 (improper fraction) and 1 1/2 into 3/2.
You multiply the two together (5/2 x 3/2) equaling 15/4 (improper fraction) or 3 3/4 (mixed fraction)
