Answer:

Cost of 1 bushes = a = $9

Cost of 1 tree = b = $73.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

13 bushes and 4 trees cost = $411

Missing;

6 bushes and 2 trees cost = $201

Find:

Value of bushes and tree

Computation:

Cost of 1 bushes = a

Cost of 1 tree = b

So,

13a + 4b = 411 ...........eq1

6a + 2b = 201 ................eq2

From Eq1 and Eq2

Cost of 1 bushes = a = $9

From eq 1

13a + 4b = 411

13(9) + 4b = 411

Cost of 1 tree = b = $73.5

I only need someone to put it in the quadratic formula I already have solutions. Please answer ASAP!!! I will give brainliest!!!

KengaRu [80]

The quadratic formula is $\frac{-b+-\sqrt[2]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

and in the equation ax^2+bx+c=0

so now all you have to do is substitute the numbers into the quadratic formula

Doug hits a baseball straight towards a 15 ft high fence that is 400 ft from home plate. The ball is hit 2.5ft above the ground

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

$125.4\ \text{m/s}$

Step-by-step explanation:

u = Initial velocity of baseball

$\theta$ = Angle of hit = $30^{\circ}$

x = Displacement in x direction = 400 ft

y = Displacement in y direction = 15 ft

$y_0$ = Height of hit = 2.5 ft

$a_y$ = g = Acceleration due to gravity = $32.2\ \text{ft/s}^2$

t = Time taken

Displacement in x direction

$x=u_xt\\\Rightarrow x=u\cos\theta t\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{x}{u\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{400}{u\cos30^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{400}{u\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{800}{u\sqrt{3}}$

Displacement in y direction

$y=y_0+u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow y=y_0+u\sin\theta t+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow 15=2.5+u\sin30^{\circ}(\dfrac{800}{u\sqrt{3}})+\dfrac{1}{2}\times -32.2\times (\dfrac{800}{u\sqrt{3}})^2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{400}{\sqrt{3}}-\dfrac{10304000}{3u^2}-12.5=0\\\Rightarrow 218.44=\dfrac{10304000}{3u^2}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{\dfrac{10304000}{3\times218.44}}\\\Rightarrow u=125.4\ \text{m/s}$

The minimum initial velocity needed for the ball to clear the fence is $125.4\ \text{m/s}$

A chemical company makes two brands

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

16 bags for the first(30% pure) and 64 bags of the second(80% pure)

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are mixed in a ratio of x bags to y bags

(0.3x+0.8y)/(x+y) = 0.7

0.3x + 0.8y = 0.7(x+y)

Multiply both sides with 10

3x + 8y = 7(x+y)

4x = y ——(1)

x + y = 80 ——(2)

Solve simultaneously

x + 4x = 80

5x = 80

x = 16 bags

y = 4x = 64 bags
