Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost (C) depends on the number of miles traveled (x).

So C is the dependent variable.

Or C(x) if they want you to be more specific.

x is your independent variable.

Miles driven do not depend on anything.

The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is 55% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 80% p

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

First type of fruit drinks: 48 pints

Second type of fruit drinks: 32 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of first type of fruit drinks. 55% pure fruit juice

Let's call B the amount of second type of fruit drinks. 80% pure fruit juice

The resulting mixture should have 65% pure fruit juice and 80 pints.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

$A + B = 80$

Then the total amount of pure fruit juice in the mixture will be:

$0.55A + 0.8B = 0.65 * 80$

$0.55A + 0.8B = 52$

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.8 and add it to the second equation:

$-0.8A -0.8B = -0.8*80$

$-0.8A -0.8B = -64$

$0.55A + 0.8B = 52$

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

$-0.25A = -12$

$A = \frac{-12}{-0.25}$

$A = 48\ pints$

We substitute the value of A into one of the two equations and solve for B.

$48 + B = 80$

$B = 32\ pints$

PQ is rotated 180 degrees clockwise about P. What are the coordinates of P' and Q'?

Salsk061 [2.6K]

The co ordinates of P' is (-7,-2) and Q' is (-16, -8)

Explanation

PQ is rotated 180 degrees clockwise about P. It means P and P' are the same points.

According to the graph, the coordinates of P is (-7, -2) and Q is (2, 4)

When PQ is rotated 180 degrees clockwise about P, then P or P' will be the mid-point of Q and Q'

Suppose, the co ordinate of Q' is (x, y)

Now according to the mid-point formula, the coordinate of P or P' will be: $(\frac{x+2}{2},\frac{y+4}{2})$ , which is actually at (-7, -2)

Thus.....

$\frac{x+2}{2}=-7\\ \\ x+2=-14\\ \\ x= -16\\ \\ and\\ \\ \frac{y+4}{2}= -2\\ \\ y+4= -4\\ \\ y= -8$

So, the co ordinates of P' is (-7,-2) and Q' is (-16, -8)

Trava [24]

Answer:

79%

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 100% to start off. If he puts 21% into savings you subtract that from the starting amount. 100 - 21 = 79. Therefore the answer is 79%.
