Mathematics

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A grocer has 18 kg of black tea worth $3.5 per kg. She wants to mix it with green tea worth $2.6 per kg to sell the mixture at $2.9 per kg. How much of green tea should she use?

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of the green tea used be x kg.

From the question:

We have:

18 kg of black tea at $ 3.5 per kg. Thus total cost of black tea is 18 x 3.5 = $ 63

Cost of green tea is $2.6 per kg. Total cost of green tea is 2.6 * x = $2.6x

Total weight of the mixture is 18 + x kg.

Total cost of the mixture is = $2.9 (18 + x)

Thus,

Total cost of black tea + total cost of green tea = Total cost of the mixture

$63 + $2.6 x = $2.9 (18 + x)

$63 + $2.6x = $52.2 + $2.9x

63 – 52.2 = 0.3 x

10.8 = 0.3 x

x = 10.8/0.3

x = 36

36 kg of green tea is needed

Find the measure of the indicated angle.<br> Please can you help?<br> I need to show work.
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

64°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠RQP = 46°

∠PRQ = 180° - 110° = 70°

∠PRQ + ∠RQP + <u>∠RPQ</u> = 180°

70° + 46 + <u>∠RPQ</u> = 180°

116° + <u>∠RPQ</u> = 180°

Find <u>∠RPQ</u>

<u>∠RPQ</u> = 180° - 116° = 64°

Remove parentheses and simplify 7a+6b-4 (3a-3b)
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Normally, you would do whatever is inside of the parenthesees first then do the rest but we cant get any further so we remove the parenthasees by distrubtion

7a+6b-4(3a-3b)
-4(3a-3b)
a(b+c)=(ab)+(ac)
-4(3a-3b)=-12a-(-12b)

7a+6b-12a+12b
7a-12a+6b+12b
-5a+18b
that's the asnwer
