To prepare for a bake-off, Chad used 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks. How many kilograms did Chad use in those 2 weeks?

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

7.280 k

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 1 g = 0.001 k

If he uses 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks, since there are 7 days in a week, the total weight of flour used in two weeks

= 520 g * 2 * 7

= 7280 g

In kilograms

Since

1 g = 0.001 k

7280 g = 7280/1 * 0.001 k

= 7.280 k

LOTS OF POINTS GIVING BRAINLIEST I NEED HELP PLEASEE

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Segment EF: y = -x + 8

Segment BC: y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two similar right triangles, ΔABC and ΔDEF, for which we must determine the slope-intercept form of the side of ΔDEF that is parallel to segment BC.

Upon observing the given diagram, we can infer the following corresponding sides:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{BC}\:\: and\:\:\overline{EF}}$

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{BA}\:\: and\:\:\overline{ED}}$

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{AC}\:\: and\:\:\overline{DF}}$

We must determine the slope of segment BC from ΔABC, which corresponds to segment EF from ΔDEF.

<h2>Slope of Segment BC:</h2>

In order to solve for the slope of segment BC, we can use the following slope formula:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{Slope\:(m)\:=\:\frac{y_2 \:-\:y_1}{x_2 \:-\:x_1}} }$

Use the following coordinates from the given diagram:

Point B: (x₁, y₁) = (-2, 4)

Point C: (x₂, y₂) = ( 1, 1 )

Substitute these values into the slope formula:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{Slope\:(m)\:=\:\frac{y_2 \:-\:y_1}{x_2 \:-\:x_1}}\:=\:\frac{1\:-\:4}{1\:-\:(-2)}\:=\:\frac{-3}{1\:+\:2}\:=\:\frac{-3}{3}\:=\:-1}$

<h2>Slope of Segment EF:</h2>

Similar to how we determined the slope of segment BC, we will use the coordinates of points E and F from ΔDEF to find its slope:

Point E: (x₁, y₁) = (4, 4)

Point F: (x₂, y₂) = (6, 2)

Substitute these values into the slope formula:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{Slope\:(m)\:=\:\frac{y_2 \:-\:y_1}{x_2 \:-\:x_1}}\:=\:\frac{2\:-\:4}{6\:-\:4}\:=\:\frac{-2}{2}\:=\:-1}$

Our calculations show that segment BC and EF have the same slope of -1. In geometry, we know that two nonvertical lines are <u>parallel</u> if and only if they have the same slope.

Since segments BC and EF have the same slope, then it means that $\displaystyle\mathsf{\overline{BC}\:\: | |\:\:\overline{EF}}$ .

<h2>Slope-intercept form:</h2><h3><u>Segment BC:</u></h3>

The <u>y-intercept</u> is the point on the graph where it crosses the y-axis. Thus, it is the value of "y" when x = 0.

Using the slope of segment BC, m = -1, and the coordinates of point C, (1, 1), substitute these values into the <u>slope-intercept form</u> (y = mx + b) to solve for the y-intercept, <em>b. </em>

y = mx + b

1 = -1( 1 ) + b

1 = -1 + b

Add 1 to both sides to isolate b:

1 + 1 = -1 + 1 + b

2 = b

Hence, the <u><em>y-intercept</em></u> of segment BC is: <em>b</em> = 2.

Therefore, the linear equation in <u>slope-intercept form of segment BC</u> is:

⇒ y = -x + 2.

<h3><u /></h3><h3><u>Segment EF:</u></h3>

Using the slope of segment EF, <em>m</em> = -1, and the coordinates of point E, (4, 4), substitute these values into the <u>slope-intercept form</u> to solve for the y-intercept, <em>b. </em>

y = mx + b

4 = -1( 4 ) + b

4 = -4 + b

Add 4 to both sides to isolate b:

4 + 4 = -4 + 4 + b

8 = b

Hence, the <u><em>y-intercept</em></u> of segment BC is: <em>b</em> = 8.

Therefore, the linear equation in <u>slope-intercept form of segment EF</u> is:

⇒ y = -x + 8.

A 20% solution of fertilizer is to be mixed with a 50% solution of fertilizer in order to get 180 gallons of a 40% solution. How

anyanavicka [17]

Answer: 60 gallons of the 20% solution and 120 gallons of the 50% solution should be mixed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gallons of 20% solution that should be mixed.

Let y represent the number of gallons of 50% solution that should be mixed.

A 20% solution of fertilizer is to be mixed with a 50% solution of fertilizer in order to get 180 gallons of a 40% solution. This means that

0.2x + 0.5y = 0.4×180

0.2x + 0.5y = 72- - - - - - - - - - - -1

Since the total number of gallons is 180, it means that

x + y = 180

Substituting x = 180 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.2(180 - y) + 0.5y = 72

36 - 0.2y + 0.5y = 72

- 0.2y + 0.5y = 72 - 36

0.3y = 36

y = 36/0.3

y = 120

x = 180 - y = 180 - 120

x = 60
