Answer:

187.5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of sand = 2/5

Fraction of clay = 2/5

Fraction of peat = 1/5

Pounds of sand = 75

The total pounds of soil required to make Correct mixture : let that be x

Hence,

Using the sand Fraction and pounds which we know :

2/5 of x = 75

2x / 5 = 75

Cross multiply :

2x = 75 * 5

2x = 375

x = 375 / 2

x = 187.5

Required pond of sand =187.5 pounds

torisob [31]

Answer:

m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, simply use this equation:

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Now we need to insert some points:

m = 10 - 0 / 11 - 6

m = 10/5

m = 2

Therefore, the slope of the line is 2.

Widget Wonders produces widgets. They
navik [9.2K]
Find the total cost of producing 5 widgets. Widget Wonders produces widgets. They have found that the cost, c(x), of making x widgets is a quadratic function in terms of x. The company also discovered that it costs $15.50 to produce 3 widgets, $23.50 to produce 7 widgets, and $56 to produce 12 widgets.
OK...so we have
a(7)^2 + b(7) + c = 23.50 → 49a + 7b + c = 23.50 (1)
a(3)^2 + b(3) + c = 15.50 → 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 subtracting the second equation from the first, we have
40a + 4b = 8 → 10a + b = 2 (2)
Also
a(12)^2 + b(12) + c = 56 → 144a + 12b + c = 56 and subtracting (1) from this gives us
95a + 5b = 32.50
And using(2) we have
95a + 5b = 32.50 (3)
10a + b = 2.00 multiplying the second equation by -5 and adding this to (3) ,we have
45a = 22.50 divide both sides by 45 and a = 1/2 and using (2) to find b, we have
10(1/2) + b = 2
5 + b = 2 b = -3
And we can use 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 to find "c"
9(1/2) + 3(-3) + c = 15.50
9/2 - 9 + c = 15.50
-4.5 + c = 15.50
c = 20
So our function is
c(x) = (1/2)x^2 - (3)x + 20
And the cost to produce 5 widgets is = $17.50

Which choice shows the result of substituting 3x – 5 into the second equation for y?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:  The answer is (B) 2x + 3(3x – 5) = 51 .

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given three options and we are to select which choice shows the result of substituting 3x – 5 into the second equation for y.

So, y = 3x - 5.

Since the standard form of a linear equation i two variables is ax + by = c, so the second equation as given in the options must be of the form 2x + 3y = 51.

If we substitute y = 3x - 5, then this equation becomes

2x + 3(3x - 5) = 51.

Thus, (B) 2x + 3(3x – 5) = 51  is the correct option.
