Tems11 [23]

Answer:

glasses of milk=4

quatar pounds servings of meat =5

two slices of whole grains bread =8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m= milk

r=meat

b=bread

0.1m+3.4r+2.2b=35 (1)

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (2)

m+20r+12b=200 (3)

Multiply (1) by 85 and (2) by 1

8.5m+289r+187b=2,975 (4)

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (5)

Subtract (5) from (4)

267r+177b=2,751 (6)

Recall,

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (2)

m+20r+12b=200 (3)

Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 8.5

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (7)

8.5m+170r+102b=1700 (8)

Subtract (7) from (8)

148r+92b=1,476 (9)

Recall,

267r+177b=2,751 (6) and

148r+92b=1,476 (9)

Multiply (6) by 148 and (9) by 267

26196b=407,148 (10)

24564b=394,092 (11)

Subtract (11) from (10)

1,632b=13,056

Divide both sides by 1,632

b=13,056/1,632

b=8

Substitute the value of b in (9)

148r+92b=1,476 (9)

148r+92(8)=1,476

148r+736=1,476

148r=1,476-736

148r=740

Divide both sides by 148

r=740/148

r= 5

Substitute the value of b and r in (1)

0.1m+3.4r+2.2b=35 (1)

0.1m+3.4(5)+2.2(8)=35

0.1m+17+17.6=35

0.1m+34.6=35

0.1m=35-34.6

0.1m=0.4

Divide both sides by 0.1

m=0.4/0.1

m=4

4 glasses of milk, 5 quatar pounds servings of meat and 8 two slices of whole grains bread will supply the required nutrients.

Divide 1/2 by 1/8 by doing Keep change flip. 1/2 divided by 1/8 turns to 1/2 x 8/1 =9/2 and then divide 9/2 like this 9 divided by 2= 2 1/2

I need to know the improper fractions answers for:

zmey [24]

Answer:

Part 1) $x=\frac{15}{2}\ units$

Part 2) $z=\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}\ units$

Part 3) $y= \frac{15\sqrt{3}}{4}\ units$

Part 4) $b= \frac{45}{4}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the value of x

In the large right triangle

$cos(60^o)=\frac{x}{15}$ ----> by CAH (adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse)

Remember that

$cos(60^o)=\frac{1}{2}$

substitute

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{x}{15}$

solve for x

$x=\frac{15}{2}\ units$ ---> improper fraction

step 2

Find the value of z

In the large right triangle

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$15^2=x^2+z^2$

substitute the value of x

$15^2=(\frac{15}{2})^2+z^2$

solve for z

$z^2=15^2-(\frac{15}{2})^2$

$z^2=225-\frac{225}{4}$

$z^2=\frac{675}{4}$

$z=\frac{\sqrt{675}}{2}\ units$

simplify

$z=\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}\ units$

step 3

Find the value of y

In the right triangle of the right

$sin(30^o)=\frac{y}{z}$ ---> by SOH (opposite side divided by the hypotenuse)

substitute the given values of y and z

Remember that

$sin(30^o)=\frac{1}{2}$

so

$\frac{1}{2}=y:\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}$

solve for y

$\frac{1}{2}= \frac{2y}{15\sqrt{3}}$

$y= \frac{15\sqrt{3}}{4}\ units$

step 4

Find the value of b

In the right triangle of the right

$cos(30^o)=\frac{b}{z}$ ---> by CAH (adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse)

substitute the given values of y and z

Remember that

$cos(30^o)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

so

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=b:\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}$

solve for y

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}= \frac{2b}{15\sqrt{3}}$

$b= \frac{45}{4}\ units$
