Answer:
Number of pounds of cashews = x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y = 19.04 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
Number of pounds of cashews = x
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y
The nut shack sells cashews for $6.00 per pound and Brazil nuts for $5.00 per pound. How much of each type should be used to make a 34 pound mixture that sells for $5.44 per pound
Our system of equations is given as:
x + y = 34...... Equation 1
x = 34 - y
6x + 5y = 34 × 5.44
6x + 5y = 184.96.......Equation 2
Ww substitute : 34 - y for x in Equation 2
6(34 - y) + 5y = 184.96
204 - 6y + 5y = 184.96
Collect like terms
- 6y + 5y = 184.96 - 204
-y = -19.04
y = 19.04 pounds
Solving for x
x = 34 - y
x = 34 - 19.04
x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of cashews = x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y = 19.04 pounds
Answer:
<u>4 hours</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations :
Larry : <u>y = 20x + 90</u>
Barry : <u>y = 30x + 50</u>
Equate both to find the number of hours at which they both charge the same :
- 20x + 90 = 30x + 50
- 30x - 20x = 90 - 50
- 10x = 40
- x = <u>4 hours</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that at time t, the position of a body moving along the s-axis is sequalsnegative t cubed plus 15 t squared minus 72 t m
i.e. 
Velocity is nothing but s'(t) = derivative of s
and acceleration is s"(t) = derivative of v(t)
a) v(t) =0 when t = 4 or 6
b) 
a(t) =0 when t =5
c) Distance travelled by the body from 0 to 5 would be
i.e. 110 miles (distance cannot be negative)
Answer:
i think that its b
