Eggplant has a yield of 81%. If you purchase 12lb of eggplant, how many pounds will you be able to use?(round to the nearest hun
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

9.72 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Yield = the amount or quantity produced or returned.

Given:

  • Yield of eggplant = 81%
  • Amount of eggplant purchased = 12 lb

To determine how many pounds of eggplant you will be able to use, calculate 81% of the amount of eggplant purchased.

\begin{aligned}\sf 81\% \: of \: 12 \: lb & = \sf \dfrac{81}{100} \cdot 12\\\\& = \sf  \dfrac{81 \cdot 12}{100}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{972}{100}\\\\& = \sf 9.72\:lb\end{aligned}

Therefore, you will be able to use 9.72 lb (nearest hundredth).

The expression sin 50 cos 40 + cos 50 sin 40 is equivalent to
enyata [817]
Sin (a+b) = sin a. cos b + cos a. sin b

a= 50° and b=40°, then

sin(50+40) = sin 50° . cos 40° + cos 50° . sin 40°

sin(50+40) = sin 90° = 1 and

sin 50° . cos 40° + cos 50° . sin 40° = 1

Show that 5x^2 + 2x - 3 < 0 can be written in the form | x + 1/5 | < 4/5
Sliva [168]

Step-by-step explanation:

First let solve the inequality

5 {x}^{2}  + 2x - 3 < 0

Factor by grouping

5 {x}^{2}  + 5x - 3x - 3 < 0

5x(x + 1) - 3(x + 1)

So the factor are

(5x - 3)(x + 1)

So the factor are

x =  \frac{3}{5}

and

x =  - 1

Solutions to a quadratic can be represented by a absolute value equation because remeber quadratics

creates 2 roots and/or double roots.

The inequality

|x - b|   <  c

works as

b is the midpoint between 2 roots. And c is the

|x + b|  = c

We know that the midpoint between both roots is-1/5.

so

|x - ( -  \frac{1}{5} )|  < c

|x +  \frac{1}{5} |  < c

Let use roots 3/5

| \frac{3}{5}  +  \frac{1}{5} |  =  \frac{4}{5}

-1 works as well.

| - 1 +  \frac{1}{5} |  =   |   -   \frac{4}{5} |  =  \frac{4}{5}

So the absolute value equation is

|x +  \frac{1}{5} |  <  \frac{4}{5}
