It takes 40 units of maple sap to produce 1 ounce of maple syrup. Jane and her family are bottling maple syrup in 20 -ounce bott

les. She notices that they leave about 2 ounces of air every time they fill a bottle, to avoid overfill. How much maple sap did they need to collect to fill 15 bottles? How much less maple sap did they need than if they would have filled each bottle to the top? Express your answer as a negative number.

Answer:

10,800

-1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

40 units of maple sap = 1 ounce of maple syrup

Using a 20 - ounce bottle, 2 ounces of air is left

Ounces of actual syrup = (20 - 2) = 18 ounces

Number of maple sap required to fill 15 bottles :

Number of maple saps required to fill 18 ounces bottle :

40 units = 1 ounce

x = 18 ounces

Hence, for 18 ounces of maple syrup :

(40 * 18).= 720 units of maple sap

For 15 bottles of 18 ounces maple syrup:

(720 * 15) = 10,800 units of maple sap

If they had filled each bottle to the top:

(40 * 20 * 15) = 12000 units of maple sap

10,800 - 12000 = - 1200 units of maple sap

Answer:

y = -4x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to assume you are trying to write the equation of a line.

4x + y = 10

4x - 4x + y = 10 - 4x

y = -4x + 10

The measure of angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree is: A 18.5 B 19.5 C 20.5
Andrew [12]

Answer:

B


Step-by-step explanation:

<u>This is a right triangle as shown by the right angle.</u>

  • The side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse, which is 9.
  • The side opposite angle A is 3.

So we have the opposite of A and the hypotenuse.

The trigonometric ratio that relates opposite side to hypotenuse is SINE.

sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Since, we need angle A, \theta is A, opposite side is 3, and hypotenuse is 9, we substitute:

sinA=\frac{3}{9}\\sinA=\frac{1}{3}

<em>To solve for the angle, we use our calculator and find the inverse sin of \frac{1}{3} :</em>

A=sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{3})\\A=19.47

<em>Rounding to nearest tenth of a degree:</em>

A=19.5

B is the right choice.
