Answer:

$5.64

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the solution, first we need to find the rate per oz. For 5 ounces it is 2.35 so to find the rate per oz we need to find the solution to 2.35/5

$2.35/5=.47$

tea leaves sell at a rate of 47 per oz

Now to find how many Taylin needs for 12 oz of tea we simply multiply .47 by 12

0.47 x 12=5.64

Taylin needs $5.64 to buy 12 ounces of tea leaves

Use the augmented matrix method to solve the following system of equations. Your answers may be given as decimals or fractions.

Answer:

$x\ =\ \dfrac{21}{5}$

$y\ =\ \dfrac{3}{5}$

z = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are

x - 2y - z = 2

x + 3y - 2z = 4

-x + 2y + 3z = 2

from the given equations the augmented matrix can be written as

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2&-1:2\\1&3&-2:4\\-1&2&3:2\end{array}\right]$

$R_2=>R_2-R_1\ and\ R_3=>R_3+R_1$

$=\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2&-1:2\\0&5&-1:2\\0&0&2:4\end{array}\right]$

$R_2=>\dfrac{R_2}{5}$

$=\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2&-1:2\\0&1&\dfrac{-1}{5}:\dfrac{2}{5}\\0&0&2:4\end{array}\right]$

$R_1=>R_1+2.R_2$

$=\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&-1-\dfrac{2}{5}:2+\dfrac{4}{5}\\\\0&1&\dfrac{-1}{5}:\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\0&0&2:4\end{array}\right]$

$=\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&\dfrac{-7}{5}:\dfrac{14}{5}\\\\0&1&\dfrac{-1}{5}:\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\0&0&2:4\end{array}\right]$

$R_3=>\dfrac{R_3}{2}$

$=\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&\dfrac{-7}{5}:\dfrac{14}{5}\\\\0&1&\dfrac{-1}{5}:\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\0&0&1:2\end{array}\right]$

$R_1=>R_1+\dfrac{7}{5}R_3\ and\ R_2+\dfrac{1}{5}R_3$

$=\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0:\dfrac{14}{5}+\dfrac{7}{5}\\\\0&1&0:\dfrac{2}{5}+\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\0&0&1:2\end{array}\right]$

So, from the above augmented matrix, we can write

$x\ =\ \dfrac{21}{5}$

$y\ =\ \dfrac{3}{5}$

z = 2

Pipe A can fill a tank in 40 minutes, while pipe B takes 60 minutes to fill the same tank.

ella [17]

Answer:

24 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question shows up in a great many places in math or physics, so it is a pretty good question to learn how to do.

First you should note that answer will be under 40 minutes.

1/40 + 1/60 = 1/TimeTotal

The common denominator on the left is 120 minutes

3/40*3 + 2/60*2 = 1/timetotal

3/120 + 2/120 = 1/ timetotal

5/120 = 1/time total Now to use to the key stop

What you do now is you always turn the left side over. You do the same thing to total time.

120/5 = total time

24 = total time

What this means is that if you let both pipes run for 24 minutes, they will fill the tank working together.

Aliun [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify left and right parts separately.

Left part:

$\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\tan^2A}\right)\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\cot ^2A}\right)\\ \\=\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\frac{\sin^2A}{\cos^2A}}\right)\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\frac{\cos^2A}{\sin^2A}}\right)\\ \\=\left(1+\dfrac{\cos^2A}{\sin^2A}\right)\left(1+\dfrac{\sin^2A}{\cos^2A}\right)\\ \\=\dfrac{\sin^2A+\cos^2A}{\sin^2A}\cdot \dfrac{\cos^2A+\sin^A}{\cos^2A}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A}\cdot \dfrac{1}{\cos^2A}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A\cos^2A}$
