52.08/3 = x/5
Multiply 52.08 by 5 and divide by 3.
260.4/3
$86.8 is the amount 5 men would get paid.

Start with the brackets. Then do 5 multiply 1 which is 5 then divide that 5 from 20 which gets you 4. Times the outside of the brackets with the inside which will give you the answer of 16

Solve for x in the equation x2 - 12x+36 = 90.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is A. x = 6 + 3 √10</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x:

x² - 12x + 36 = 90

Factoring this quadratic equation, we have:

(x - 6) (x - 6) = 90

(x - 6)² = 90

x - 6 = √90 (Square root to both sides of the equation)

x = 6 + √90 (Adding 6 to both sides of the equation)

x = 6 + √9 * 10

x = 6 + √3² * 10

x = 6 + 3 √10

<u>The correct answer is A. x = 6 + 3 √10</u>

A new mixture of self-tanning & moisturizing lotions for everyday use is being developed. This mixture is made by mixing 70

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

450 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the cost of the mixture $C_m$ must be the cost of the everyday moisturizing lotion $C_e$ plus the cost of the self-tanning lotion $C_s$ , which means $C_m=C_e+C_s$ .

The cost of any substance will be the cost per ounce of the substance (c), multiplied by the number of ounces (n), which means C=nc, so we have from the previous formula that we have:

$n_m c_m=n_e c_e + n_s c_s$

But we also know that the number of ounces of the mixture must be the sum of the number of ounces of the everyday moisturizing lotion with the number of ounces of the self-tanning lotion, so we have

$n_e c_e + n_s c_s=n_m c_m=(n_e+n_s) c_m=n_e c_m+n_s c_m$

We want to calculate the number of ounces of the self-tanning lotion ( $n_s$ ), so we solve for that variable:

$n_e c_e + n_s c_s=n_e c_m+n_s c_m$

$n_s c_s-n_s c_m=n_e c_m-n_e c_e$

$n_s (c_s-c_m)=n_e(c_m-c_e)$

$n_s=\frac{n_e (c_m-c_e)}{(c_s-c_m)}$

And substitute our values in this formula, to get:

$n_s=\frac{(700\ ounces) (\$1.6-\$0.7)}{(\$3-\$1.6)}=450\ ounces$
