Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: <u>4 pounds</u> of brand X sugar
====================================================
Reason:
n = number of pounds of brand X sugar
5n = cost of buying those n pounds, at $5 per pound
Brand Y costs $2 per pound, and you buy 8 lbs of it, so that's another 2*8 = 16 dollars.
5n+16 = total cost of brand X and brand Y combined
n+8 = total amount of sugar bought, in pounds
3(n+8) = total cost because we buy n+8 pounds at $3 per pound
The 5n+16 and 3(n+8) represent the same total cost.
Set them equal to each other. Solve for n.
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5n+16 = 3n+24
5n-3n = 24-16
2n = 8
n = 8/2
n = 4 pounds of brand X sugar are needed
-------------
Check:
n = 4
5n = 5*4 = 20 dollars spent on brand X alone
16 dollars spent on brand Y mentioned earlier
20+16 = 36 dollars spent total
n+8 = 4+8 = 12 pounds of both types of sugar brands combined
3*12 = 36 dollars spent on both types of sugar brands
The answer is confirmed.
--------------
Another way to verify:
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5*4+16 = 3(4+8)
20+16 = 3(12)
36 = 36
Answer:
5.44 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the hexagonal nut can be found by multiplying the area of the end face by the length of the nut. The end face area is the difference between the area of the hexagon and the area of the hole.
The area of a hexagon with side length s is given by ...
A = (3/2)√3·s²
For s=1 cm, the area is ...
A = (3/2)√3(1 cm)² = (3/2)√3 cm²
__
The area of a circle is given by ...
A = πr²
The radius of a circle with diameter 1 cm is 0.5 cm. Then the area of the hole is ...
A = π(0.5 cm)² = 0.25π cm²
__
The volume is the face area multiplied by the length, so is ...
V = Bh = ((3/2)√3 -0.25π)(3) . . . . . cm³
V = (9/2)√3 -0.75π cm³ ≈ 5.44 cm³
The volume of the metal is about 5.44 cm³.
The figures in a plane can be reflected, rotated, translated or dilated to produce new figures or images.
A transformation that moves all points to the same distance and in the same direction. The final figure looks the same, just moved over. It does not flip or gets rotated. It also does not change size.This type of translation is called glide reflection. Its the summation of translation and reflection.
