Answer:

  • Rift Valley: 37 31/33 ≈ 37.94 lb
  • Terraza: 2 2/33 ≈ 2.06 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the number of pounds of Terraza blend required. Then 40-t is the number of pounds of Rift Valley blend needed. The cost of the mix will be ...

  13.50t +10.20(40 -t) = 10.37(40)

  3.30t = 6.8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 408

  t = 6.8/3.30 = 68/33 = 2 2/33 ≈ 2.06061 . . . . pounds of Terraza

Then the quantity of Rift Valley blend required is ...

  40 -2 2/33 = 37 31/33 ≈ 37.93939 . . . . pounds of Rift Valley

What are the zeros of this quadratic function?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = (x - 7)(x + 8)

To obtain the zeros , let f(x) = 0, that is

(x - 7)(x + 8) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

A square patio has a side length of (x − 8) feet. It is surrounded by a flower garden with a uniform width. The side length of t
Andre45 [30]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  32x ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the garden plus patio is ...

  (x +8)² = x² +16x +64

The area of the patio is ...

  (x -8)² = x² -16x +64

The area of the flower garden is the total area less the patio area:

  (x² +16x +64) -(x² -16x +64) = 32x . . . area of the flower garden

The ball is shaped like a hemisphere with a radius of 5 inches. Find the volume of the bowl
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The volume of the bowl is V=\frac{250}{3}\pi\ in^{3} or V=83\frac{1}{3}\pi\ in^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a hemisphere (bowl) is equal to

V=\frac{4}{6}\pi r^{3}

we have

r=5\ in

substitute

V=\frac{4}{6}\pi (5)^{3}

V=\frac{250}{3}\pi\ in^{3}

V=83\frac{1}{3}\pi\ in^{3}

The longer leg of a right triangle is 4m longer than the shorter leg. the hypotenuse is 8m longer than the shorter leg. find the
liubo4ka [24]
Let the shorter leg = a.
The longer leg, b = a + 4.
The hypotenuse, c = a + 8

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + (a + 4)^2 = (a + 8)^2

a^2 + a^2 + 8a + 16 = a^2 + 16a + 64

a^2 - 8a - 48 = 0

(a - 12)(a + 4) = 0

a - 12 = 0   or a + 4 = 0

a = 12   or   a = -4

a = -4 is discarded because it is negative.

a = 12
b = 16
c = 20

The lengths are 12 m, 16 m, and 20 m.
