Mathematics

Answer:

-3 +   4sqrt(2)

-3  -  4sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x – 4)(x + 10) = -17

FOIL on the left hand side  (First outer inner last)

x^2 +10x-4x-40 = -17

x^2 +6x-40 =-17

Add 17 to each side

x^2 +6x-40+17 =-17+17

x^2 +6x -23 = 0

Using the quadratic formula

-b + - sqrt(b^2 -4ac)

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

   2a        

where ax^2 +bx+c=0

-6 + - sqrt(6^2 -4*1*-23)

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

   2*1

-6 + - sqrt(36 +92)

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

   2

-6 + - sqrt(128)

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

   2

-6 + -  8sqrt(2)

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

   2

Divide top and bottom by 2

-3 + -  4sqrt(2)

The vendor of a coffee cart mixes coffee beans that cost $9 per pound with coffee beans that cost $5 per pound. How many pounds
lidiya [134]

Answer:

56.25 pound of the coffee that costs $5 per pound is needed

18.75 pound of the coffee that costs $9 per pound is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pounds be x and y respectively

The total pounds is 75;

So;

x + y. = 75 •••••••(i)

Total cost of first type

9 * x = $9x

Total cost of second type;

5 * y= $5y

75 pound at $6 per pound; total cost of this is;

6 * 75 = $450

Thus;

9x + 5y = 450 ••••••••(ii)

From i, x = 75-y

Put this into ii

9(75-y) + 5y = 450

675 -9y + 5y = 450

4y = 675-450

4y = 225

y = 225/4

y = 56.25

x = 75 - y from i

x = 75-56.25

x = $18.75
