Answer: She should use 12 ounces of Sweet Rose Tulsi tea and 4 ounces of Orange blossom green tea.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of ounces of Sweet Rose Tulsi tea that she should use.
Let y represent the number of ounces of Orange blossom green tea that she should use.
She wants to blend 16 ounces of the tea blend. It means that
x + y = 16
x = 16 - y
Sweet rose tea sells for $4.98 an ounce and Orange Blossom sells for $1.98 an ounce. If the the tea blend is to sell for $4.23 per ounce, then the 16 ounces would be sold for 16 × 4.23 = 67.68
it means that
4.98x + 1.98y = 67.68- - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 16 - y into equation 1, it becomes
4.98(16 - y) + 1.98y = 67.68
79.68 - 4.98y + 1.98y = 67.68
- 4.98y + 1.98y = 67.68 - 79.68
- 3y = - 12
y = - 12/-3
y = 4
x = 16 - y = 16 - 4
x = 12
You didn't put any answer choices, but the formula for the sides of a triangle is that the two smaller sides have to add up to be GREATER the hypotenuse (the longest side). 11 + 9 = 20, so the value of the third side can be 21 or more.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Mass of apples = number of containers × mass in each container
6 lb = No of containers × ½ lb
No of containers = 6/½
To divide a whole number by a fraction, invert the fraction and change divide to multiply.
6/½ = 6 × 2/1
Multiply the numerator by the whole number.
6 × 2/1 = 12/1
Simplify the fraction.
12/1 = 12
Elise can make 12 containers of applesauce.
Answer:
64.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial amount N° = ?
Remaining amount after decay = N = ?
k = decay constant = 0.00012 
t = time = 3650 year
fraction remaining will be N/N°
From the decay equation, N = N°
N/N° =
N/N° = 
N/N° = 
N/N° = 0.645 = 64.5%
