Priya needs 13⅓ cups of orange juice

Diego 15 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

......................................................................................................................

Priya

......................................................................................................................

Cup of water = 2½

Cup of orange = ⅓

If 2½ cups of water requires ½ cup of orange juice concentrate

Then 100 cups of water would require x cup of orange

Representing the above statement mathematically

2½ : ⅓ = 100 : x

5/2 : 1/3 = 100 : x ------------------Convert ratio sign to division

5/2 ÷⅓ = 100/x

5/2 * 3 = 100/x

15/2 = 100/x ---------------Multiply both sides by x

15/2 * x = 100/x * x

15x/2 = 100 ------------------ Multiply both sides by 2

2 * 15x/2 = 2 * 100

15x = 200 --------------- Divide both sides by 15

x = 200/15

x = 13⅓

So, 13⅓ cups of orange is needed by Priya

......................................................................................................................

Diego

......................................................................................................................

Cup of water = 1⅔

Cup of orange = ¼

If 1⅔ cups of water requires ¼ cup of orange juice concentrate

Then 100 cups of water would require x cup of orange

Representing the above statement mathematically

1⅔:¼ = 100:x

5/3 : ¼ = 100:x

5/3 ÷¼ = 100 ÷ x

5/3 * 4/1 = 100 ÷ x

20/3 =100/x----------------------- Multiply x to both sides

20/3 * x = 100/x * x

20x/3 = 100 ------------------------ Multiply 3 to sides by 3

3 * 20x/3 = 100 * 3

20x = 300 ------------- Divide both sides by 2

20x/20 = 300/20

x = 15

So, 15 cups of orange is needed by Diego

18 cajas de manzanas y peras fueron llevadas a la escuela. Las peras trajeron 210 kg en 6 cajas. ¿Cuántos kilos de manzanas fuer
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

504 kilos de manzanas fueron llevados a la escuela.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean x, y la cantidad de cajas de manzanas y peras, respectivamente. De acuerdo con el enunciado, tenemos el siguiente sistema de ecuaciones:

Total de cajas

x+y = 18 (1)

Masa de cada caja de peras

y\cdot m_{P} = 210 (2)

y = 6 (3)

Masa de caja de manzanas

m_{M} = m_{P}+7 (4)

De (2) en (3), tenemos que la masa de cada caja de peras es:

m_{P} = 35\,kg

Por (4), encontramos que la masa de cada caja de manzanas es:

m_{M} = 35\,kg+7\,kg

m_{M} = 42\,kg

Finalmente, de (1) tenemos la cantidad de cajas de manzana:

x = 18-y

x = 12

La cantidad de kilos de manzanas llevada a la escuela se obtiene al multiplicar la cantidad de cajas de manzana por la masa de cada caja:

M = (12)\cdot (42\,kg)

M = 504\,kg

504 kilos de manzanas fueron llevados a la escuela.

What is the area of the composite figure? (use 3.14 for pi). Explain how you arrived at your answer. Please round to the nearest
maksim [4K]

The area of the given diagram is 29.817 square centimeters. The given diagram is combination of rectangle and semi circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                 Given diagram is combination of Rectangle and Semi circle.

Step:1

         Res the attachment,

                      Area of given diagram = Area of A + Area of B..............(1)

Step:2

         For A,

         The A section in the given diagram is semi circle,

                     Diameter of semi circle = Total distance - ( 2+3)

                                          ( ∵ 2, 3 are top distance in the given diagram)

                                                             = 10 - 5

                                        Diameter, d = 5 cm

                                             Radius, r = \frac{d}{2}

                                                          r = \frac{5}{2}

                                                         r = 2.5 cm

                                          Area, A_{A}  = \frac {\pi r^{2} }{2}........................(2)

                                                    A_{A}  = \frac {\pi (2.5)^{2} }{2}  

                                                           = \frac {\pi ( 6.25) }{2}

                                                           = \frac{19.63}{2}

                                                     A_{A} = 9.8174 cm^{2}

Step:3

               For B,

               Area of rectangle is,

                                                      A_{B} =lb.....................(3)

              Where, l - Length = 10 cm

                          b - Width = 2 cm

              Equation (3) become,

                                                            = (10)(2)

                                                            = 20

                                    Area of B, A_{B} = 20 cm^{2}

Step:4

               From the equation (1),

                               Area of given diagram = 20+ 9.81747

                                                            Area = 29.817 square centimeters

Result:

            The area of the given diagram is 29.817 square centimeters. The given diagram is combination of rectangle and semi circle.
