Answer:
150
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to find what number 80 is 2/5 of, to do this do the reciprocal of 2/5 which would be 5/2. Multiply 80 by 5/2 and you'll get 200, then find what 3/4 of 200. Multiply 200 by 3, then divide by 4 to get the answer of 150.
425.69+298.72=724.41
29.72+135.47+208.28=373.47
724.41-373.47=350.94
350.94-5=345.94
The answer is c
Answer: C. 56 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
224 miles divided by 4 hours = 56 miles per hour
For the mix you need 60 Ib of nuts and raisins, and 60 lb of mix will sell for $300.
Let <em>x</em> be the weight of nuts and <em>y</em> the weight of raisins needed for the mix.
Total weight = <em>x</em>+<em>y</em> = 60, so <em>y</em> = 60 - <em>x</em>
Total value = 6<em>x</em> + 3<em>y</em> = 300. From the above, we can substitute the <em>y</em> for 60 - x:
Total value = 6<em>x</em> + 3(60 - <em>x</em>) = 300, which we can simplify to:
6<em>x</em> + 180 - 3<em>x</em> = 300, and simplify again to:
3<em>x</em> = 120, and again to:
<em>x</em> = 40. We can now calculate<em> y</em> from the first equation y = 60 - <em>x</em>, so:
y = 20.
40 lb of nuts and 20 lb of raisins. Check:
40 lb x $6/lb = $240, and 20 lb x $3/lb = $60, $240 + $60 = $300.
