(2·3.5 + 4·3.25 + 2·1.9 + 1·1.2)·(1 - 0.05) = $23.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Turn the ratio into a fraction
2in /25 mi
You want to have miles so you can flip the fraction and mutiply to cancel out the inches
(25mi / 2in) x 5in = (25 mi x 5in) / 2in

10 pounds of candy costing $1.20 per pounds must be mixed with 40 pounds of candy costing $ 0.95 per pound to obtain a 50 pounds of candy costing $ 1 per pound
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the pounds of candy at $ 1.20 per pound
Then (50 - x) is the pounds of candy at $ 0.95 per pound ( since 95 cents is equal to 0.95 pound)
Therefore, x pounds of candy costing $1.20 per pounds must be mixed with (50 - x) pounds of candy costing $ 0.95 per pound to obtain a 50 pounds of candy costing $ 1 per pound
Then the equation becomes,
1.20x + (50 - x)0.95 = 50 x 1
On expanding we get,
1.20x + 47.5 - 0.95x = 50
0.25x = 50 - 47.5
0.25x = 2.5
x = 10
Then (50 - x) = 50 - 10 = 40
So we need 10 pounds of candy worth $ 1.20 per pound and 40 pounds of candy worth $ 0.95 to obtain 50 pounds of candy worth a dollar a pound
The answer is -3 because
-|28|= -28 now the problem looks like -28+(-5)^2
(-5)^2=25
-28 +25= -3
