Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Required man days to complete the job = 8 * 6

= 48 Man Days

Required labors to complete the job by 15 days = 48/15

= 3.2

It means, it is required 4 labors can complete the certain work by 15 days

Linda needs 20 gallons of juice that has 75%fruit juice. she has a mixture that has 80% fruit juice and another mixtures that ha

suter [353]

Linda should use ...
15 gallons of 80% juice
5 gallons of 60% juice

_____
Let g represent the number of gallons of 80% juice needed. Then (20-g) is the number of gallons of 60% juice Linda will use. The amount of juice in the mixture can be written as
0.80g +0.60(20 -g) = 0.75×20
0.20g = 20(0.75 -0.60) = 20×0.15
g = 20×0.15/0.20 = 15
The amount of 80% juice needed is 15 gallons, so 5 gallons of 60% juice are needed.

What is the approximate area of the shaded portion of the diagram? (Use 3.14 as an estimate for pi.)

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

218

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the area of the circle-

$A=\pi r^{2} \\A=\pi 10^{2} \\A=100\pi \\A=314$

to find the area of the triangle, we need the base and the height. The base we know is 16, since we don't know the height yet, use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height. One leg is 16 the hypotenuse is 20 (2* the radius).

$a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\a^{2} +16^{2} =20^{2} \\a^{2} +256=400\\a^{2} =144\\a=12$

Now I know the height is 12. Find the area of the triangle

$A=\frac{1}{2} bh\\A=\frac{1}{2} (16)(20)\\A=96$

subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the circle

314-96=218

I need help 6x-2y=10 x-2y=-5 solve by elimination

dem82 [27]

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Given the system of equations.

$\begin{cases} 6x - 2y = 10 \\ x - 2y = - 5 \end{cases}$

Solve the system of equations by eliminating either x-term or y-term. We will eliminate the y-term as it is faster to solve the equation.

To eliminate the y-term, we have to multiply the negative in either the first or second equation so we can get rid of the y-term. I will multiply negative in the second equation.

$\begin{cases} 6x - 2y = 10 \\ - x + 2y = 5 \end{cases}$

There as we can get rid of the y-term by adding both equations.

$(6x - x) + ( - 2y + 2y) = 10 + 5 \\ 5x + 0 = 15 \\ 5x = 15 \\ x = \frac{15}{5} \longrightarrow \frac{ \cancel{15}}{ \cancel{5}} = \frac{3}{1} \\ x = 3$

Hence, the value of x is 3. But we are not finished yet because we need to find the value of y as well. Therefore, we substitute the value of x in any given equations. I will substitute the value of x in the second equation.

$x - 2y = - 5 \\ 3 - 2y = - 5 \\ 3 + 5 = 2y \\ 8 = 2y \\ \frac{8}{2} = y \\ y = \frac{8}{2} \longrightarrow \frac{ \cancel{8}}{ \cancel{2}} = \frac{4}{1} \\ y = 4$

Hence, the value of y is 4. Therefore, we can say that when x = 3, y = 4.

Answer Check by substituting both x and y values in both equations.

First Equation

$6x - 2y = 10 \\ 6(3) - 2(4) = 10 \\ 18 - 8 = 10 \\ 10 = 10 \longrightarrow \sf{true} \: \green{ \checkmark}$

Second Equation

$x - 2y = - 5 \\ 3 - 2(4) = - 5 \\ 3 - 8 = - 5 \\ - 5 = - 5 \longrightarrow \sf{true} \: \green{ \checkmark}$

Hence, both equations are true for x = 3 and y = 4. Therefore, the solution is (3,4)

<h3>Answer</h3>

$\begin{cases} x = 3 \\ y = 4 \end{cases} \\ \sf \underline{Coordinate \: \: Form} \\ (3,4)$
