Answer:

56.25 pound of the coffee that costs $5 per pound is needed

18.75 pound of the coffee that costs $9 per pound is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pounds be x and y respectively

The total pounds is 75;

So;

x + y. = 75 •••••••(i)

Total cost of first type

9 * x = $9x

Total cost of second type;

5 * y= $5y

75 pound at $6 per pound; total cost of this is;

6 * 75 = $450

Thus;

9x + 5y = 450 ••••••••(ii)

From i, x = 75-y

Put this into ii

9(75-y) + 5y = 450

675 -9y + 5y = 450

4y = 675-450

4y = 225

y = 225/4

y = 56.25

x = 75 - y from i

x = 75-56.25

x = $18.75

Round to the nearest tenth wa hit is the perimeter of the triangle
klio [65]

Answer:

D. 11.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is a 30°-60°-90° triangle. There is a shortcut to find the lengths of the sides of a 30°-60°-90° triangle. The longest side is the hypotenuse. The longest side is double the shortest side or, the shortest side is half the longest side. Here the longest side is 5, so the short leg (shortest side) is 2.5

The other shortcut is that the longer leg is the

short leg×sqroot3

Here, the short leg is 2.5, so the long leg is 2.5×sqroot3

Perimeter is all the sides added together.

5 + 2.5+ 2.5×sqrt3

Do the times first.

5 + 2.5 + 4.3

= 11.8

PLZ HELP ASAP AREA OF A SECTOR
timama [110]
The relationship of arcs is:
 S '/ S = ((1/9) * pi * r) / (2 * pi * r)
 Rewriting we have:
 S '/ S = ((1/9)) / (2)
 S '/ S = 1/18
 Therefore, the area of the shaded region is:
 A '= (S' / S) * A
 Where A: area of the complete circle:
 Clearing we have:
 A = (A ') / (S' / S)
 Substituting:
 A = ((1/2) pi) / (1/18)
 A = ((18/2) pi)
 A = (9pi)
 Answer:
 The area of the circle is:
 
A = (9pi)

Don't go by my answers pls
Illusion [34]

Answer:

19)  ( \frac{-2}{5})^2 = \frac{4}{25}

20) -9^{2} = -81

21)  2^{4} = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The only wrong ones are

19)  ( \frac{-2}{5})^2 = \frac{4}{25}

20) -9^{2} = -81 ... negative is not inside a parenthesis that's why it is still negative

21) you can add another way is 2^{4} = 16

Everything else looks good.  Great job!
