Answer:

138 gallons - milk containing 8% butterfat , 92 gallons -  milk containing 3% butterfat

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, find the quantity of butterfat in  the dairy needs of milk

230/100*6= 2.3*6=13.8 gallons of butterflat

1) Consider gallons each of milk containing 8% butterfat and milk containing 3%, suppose we need x gallons of milk containing 8 percents butterfat, then we need 230-x gallons of milk containing 3percent butterfat.

Then the quantity of the butterfat in the 8percents fat milk is x/100*8= 0.08x

the quantity of the butterfat in the 3percents fat milk is (230-x)/100*3=

=0.03 (230-x) = 6.9-0.03x The amount of butterfat of the both milk containing 8% butterfat and milk containing 3%is equal to 13.8 gallons

Then 0.08x+6.9-0.03x=13.8

0.05x=6.9

x=6.9/0.05= 138 -milk 8 percents

230-x= 230-138= 92

Answer:

The toy's maximum height is 10.12\ \text{feet}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that models the toy's height in feet from the ground at t seconds after  he threw it is given by :

h = -2t^2 + 7t + 4 .....(1)

It is required to find the toy's maximum height. For maxima or minima, put

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=0

Plugging the value of t in above equation,

\dfrac{d(-2t^2 + 7t + 4)}{dt}=0\\\\-4t+7=0\\\\t=\dfrac{7}{4}\\\\t=1.75\ s

Now put t = 1.75 s in equation (1) such that,

h = -2(1.75)^2 + 7(1.75) + 4\\\\h=10.12\ \text{feet}

So, the toy's maximum height is 10.12\ \text{feet}.

HELP PLZZZZZ !!!!!!!! I DON'T UNDERSTAND
denis23 [38]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

As seen below, the equation of a circle is (x - h)^2 + (y - k)2 = r^2.

In this case, h = the x-value of the center of the circle, which is -2, and k = the y-value of the center of the circle, which is 3. The radius r is 4.

(x - (-2))^2 + (y - (3))^2 = (4)^2

(x + 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 16

This corresponds to answer choice C.

Hope this helps!
