Answer:

The correct equation in terms of s is: 4s=260

  • The number of strawberry ice cream produced per day, s=65.
  • The number of chocolate ice cream produced per day ,c=130.
  • The number of vanilla ice cream produced per day ,v=85.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of containers of strawberry ice cream produced per day=s

Let the number of containers of vanilla ice cream produced per day=v

Let the number of containers of chocolate ice cream produced per day=c

Total Number of Ice Cream Containers=280

  • s+v+c=280

Given:

The factory produces twice as much chocolate ice cream as strawberry ice cream. This is written as:

  • c=2s

The factory produces 20 more containers of vanilla ice cream than strawberry ice cream. This is written as:

  • v=s+20

Therefore substituting c=2s and v=s+20 into the first equation: s+v+c=280

s+s+20+2s=280

4s=280-20

4s=260

Divide both sides by 4

s=65

The number of strawberry ice cream produced per day is 65.

The number of chocolate ice cream produced per day =2s=2(65)=130.

The number of vanilla ice cream produced per day =s+20=65+20=85.

Answer:

54$

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6% per year for 3 years, we can do 6 x 3 = 18 to find the total interest percent over all the years. Then we can do 18% of 300 = 54 Therefore, you will gain 54$ of simple in three years.

A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 20% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 70% pure anti
andre [41]

Answer:

First brand of antifreeze: 21 gallons

Second brand of antifreeze: 9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of  first brand of antifreeze. 20% pure antifreeze

Let's call B the amount of second brand of antifreeze. 70% pure antifreeze

The resulting mixture should have 35% pure antifreeze, and 30 gallons.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

A + B = 30

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:

0.2A + 0.7B = 0.35 * 30

0.2A + 0.7B = 10.5

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.7 and add it to the second equation:

-0.7A -0.7B = -0.7*30

-0.7A -0.7B = -21

-0.7A -0.7B = -21

               +

0.2A + 0.7B = 10.5

--------------------------------------

-0.5A = -10.5

A = \frac{-10.5}{-0.5}

A = 21\ gallons

We substitute the value of A into one of the two equations and solve for B.

21 + B = 30

B = 9\ gallons

Jenna is correct.  This is because the square root of 2 is an irrational number.  And if the number is a prime number, the answer is less likely to have a rational square root.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

First you'll need to understad what Perpendicular Bisector Theorem is:

The Perpendicular Bisector Theorem states that a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment if and only if it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.

so X=45 degrees

and Y= 90 degrees

I'm not sure about X

but I hope this helps

:D
