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

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter of sphere B is 42, that means the radius is half, so it is 21.

The question is asking what multiplied by 24 is 21, or 21 divided by 24. 21/24 can be simplified to 7/8.

Describe the end behavior of the given function f(x)=2/3x-2
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The end behavior of f(x)=2/3x-2 is: as x->+ infinity, f(x)->+ infinity

as x->- infinity, f(x)->- infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are asked about the end behavior of a function, look to see where the function is traveling on the graph. For instance, this graph is linear, so you should look to see if the slope is positive or negative. This linear function is positive, so as x is reaching positive infinity the f(x) would also be reaching positive infinity. As x is reaching negative infinity, f(x) would also be reaching negative infinity. The end behavior of a function describes the trend of the graph on the left and right side of the x- axis. (As x approaches negative infinity and as x approaches positive infinity).

Calculating area of rectangle.
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Your measurements; Area = 216.108 cm²

Another student's measurements; Area = 216.9404 cm²

- Difference in area could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they made use of different measuring tools.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Your measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.70 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.44 cm

Area of rectangle is given by; A = length × width = 20.7 × 10.44 = 216.108 cm²

For Another student's measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.74 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.46 cm

Area = 20.74 × 10.46

Area = 216.9404 cm²

The areas they both obtained are not of equal values and this could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they used different measuring tools.
