So the best way to do these is concentration1 (%) × volume1 = concentration2 × volume2
Or C1V1 + C2V2 = C3V3, where C1 = 100% (bc ALL pecans), V1 = 6 lbs, C2 = 70%, C3 = 82%:
100%×6 + 70%×v2 = 82%×(6+v2)
100%=1.00, 70%=.7, 82%=.82
note: if none is poured out then v3 = v1+v2
6 + .7v2 = .82 (6+v2)
6 + .7v2 = 4.92 + .82v2
6 + .7v2 -.7v2 = 4.92 + .82v2 -.7v2
6 = 4.92 + .12v2
6-4.92 = 4.92-4.92 + .12v2
1.08 = .12v2
.12v2/.12 = 1.08/.12
v2 = 9 lbs
that's only v2!!!

For the final poundage, we need v3:

v3 = 6 + v2 = 6 + 9 = 15 lbs

PLEASE HELP ME GUYS :((​
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

8 - 8\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem you have to use the 45-45-90 triangle theorem and 30-60-90 theorem.

For 45-45-90, the isosceles sides = 4, so the hypotenuse of the 30-60-90 triangle is 4 times 2, which is 8. If x is 8, then since y is the side across from the 60 angle, y is 8\sqrt{3. Since this really can't be simplified after y is subtracted from x, the final answer is just 8 - 8\sqrt{3}.

If m<FHI=142, what are m<FHG and m<GHI​
lisabon 2012 [21]
<h3>Answers:</h3>

angle FHG = 42 degrees

angle GHI = 100 degrees

=========================================================

Explanation:

FHI is the largest angle. It is split into two pieces FHG and GHI which have measures of (3x+6) and (9x-8) degrees respectively.

Put another way, those two smaller angles (FHG and GHI) combine to form the larger angle (FHI)

This is the angle addition postulate.

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

(angle FHG) + (angle GHI) = angle FHI

(3x+6) + (9x-8) = 142

3x+6+9x-8 = 142

(3x+9x) + (6-8) = 142

12x - 2 = 142

12x-2+2 = 142+2 ... adding 2 to both sides

12x = 144

12x/12 = 144/12 .... dividing both sides by 12

x = 12

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

Use that x value to find the angles we're after

angle FHG = 3x+6 = 3*12+6 = 36+6 = 42

angle GHI = 9x-8 = 9*12-8 = 108-8 = 100

Note how

(angle FHG) + (angle GHI) = 42 + 100 = 142

which is the measure of angle FHI. This confirms the answers.
