Answer:

1.65

Step-by-step explanation:

100 pounds of the mixture = 1.36 * 100 = 136 dollars.

She uses 20 pounds of jelly beans that cost

20 * .20   = 4.00

136 - 4 = 132 dollars left for 80 pounds of sugar candies.

80 pounds = 132 pounds of sugar candies.

1 pound =  x

80/1 = 132 / x             Cross multiply

80x = 132

x = 132 / 80

x = 1.65 / per pound

Complete this proof.<br><br> Given: EC AC, DB AC, ∠A = ∠F<br> Prove: ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: EC || AC, DB || AC, ∠A = ∠F

Prove: ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA

Solution

See diagram attached to the solution to better understand the following workings.

Redrawing ΔMDF or rotating to be facing the same direction.

EC is parallel to AC

DB parallel to AC

Using similar triangle theorem:

If ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA

Ratio of Corresponding sides would be equal

(adjacent of ΔMDF)/(adjacent of ΔNCA) = (Opposite of ΔMDF)/(opposite of ΔNCA) = (hypotenuse of ΔMDF)/(hypotenuse of ΔNCA)

DF/ CA = MD/NC = FM/AN

∠A = ∠F

∠M = ∠N

∠D = ∠C

Since the ratio of Corresponding sides and angle are equal, ΔMDF is similar to ΔNCA.

ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA

Ann, Ben, and Cindy were eating strawberries. The ratio of the numbers of berries they ate is 5:5:7. If Cindy ate 30 strawberrie
agasfer [191]

Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

Ann, Ben, and Cindy were eating strawberries.

The ratio of the numbers of berries they ate is 5:5:7.

If Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben together,

find:

what is the total number of strawberries the three of them ate?

solution:

add the ratios 5 + 5 + 7 = 17

since Cindy ate 30, less than Ann and Ben together so, the equation is

7x = 5x + 5x - 30

7x - 10x = -30

x = 30/3

x = 10

ann 5 x 10 = 50

ben 5 x 10 = 50

cindy 7 x 10 = 70  

total            = 170

What is the surface area of this triangular pyramid?
lidiya [134]

<em>48.25 in^2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the surface area of a pyramid is:

SA=B+\frac{1}{2}l(number of base sides)(b)

B represents the area of the base, which in this case is a triangle. We will figure out the area of the base first, using the formula for the area of a triangle.

A=\frac{1}{2}bh

A=.5*5*4.3

A = 10.75

Now we can plug in 10.75 for B.

SA=10.75+.5*5*3*5

The cursive L will be the lateral height, which is 5. Since there are 3 sides on the base we can put that in for the number of base sides, and the base is 5.

SA=

48.25 in^2

Suppose that the functions g and h are defined for all real numbers r as follows. gx) -4x +5 h (x) = 6x write the expressions fo
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer: Our required values would be -10x+5, 2x+5 and -25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

g(x) = -4x+5

and

h(x) = 6x

We need to find  (g-h)(x) and (g+h)(x).

So, (g-h)(x) is given by

g(x)-h(x)\\\\=-4x+5-6x\\\\=-10x+5

and (g+h)(x) is given by

g(x)+h(x)\\\\=-4x+5+6x\\\\=2x+5

and (g-h)(3) is given by

-10(3)+5\\\\=-30+5\\\\=-25

Hence, our required values would be -10x+5, 2x+5 and -25.
