Mathematics

Answer:

<em>The new mixture is 49% peanuts.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The first batch of 9 lb of mixed nuts contains 55% peanuts. This means the quantity of peanut is:

9*55/100=4.95 lb

The second batch of 6 lb of mixed nuts contains 40% peanuts. This means the quantity of peanut is:

6*40/100=2.4 lb

The total quantity of peanut in the mix is

4.95 lb + 2.4 lb =7.35 lb

There are 9 lb + 6 lb = 15 lb of mix. Thus, the percent of peanut in the mix is:

7.35 / 15 * 100 = 49%

The new mixture is 49% peanuts.

-4 (-3x-2)+4=60 can you help me plz ​
Ede4ka [16]
X = 4.

You have to distribute by multiplying -4 by the numbers between -3x and -2.

12x + 8 =60

Subtract the 8 from 60 to simplify the equation.

12x = 48

Divide 12 by 48 and get 4.

x=4

The area of a square ice rink is 400 yd.². What is the perimeter of the rink in yards
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

80 yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the formula for squares is s^2, we can use this to set up an equation, which is

s^2=400

If we square root this, we get

s=20

The perimeter formula for a square is 4s, so if we plug in, we end up with 80 yd^2
