Answer:

17*10^-3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Speed= 8.5×10^−6 miles per second

Time taken=2×10^3 seconds

We know that the expression for the speed is given as

speed= distance/time

distance= speed* time

substitute

distance= 8.5×10^−6* 2×10^3

distance= 8.5*2*(10^-6+3)

distance= 17*10^-3 miles

A dairy farmer wants to mix a 85% protein supplement and a standard 55% protein ration to make 1200 pounds of a high-grade 80% p
mr_godi [17]

The diary farmer should use 1000 pounds of 85 % protien and 55 % of 200 pounds to make 1200 pounds of a high-grade 80% protein ration

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let the amount of 85 % protien supplement be "x"

Then amount of 55 % protien be (1200 - x)

According to given question,

85 % of "x" protien supplement + 55 % of 1200 - x protien used to get 80 % of 1200 pounds

85 % of x + 55 % of (1200 - x) = 80 % of 1200

\frac{85}{100} \times x + \frac{55}{100} \times (1200 - x) = \frac{80}{100} \times 1200\\\\0.85x + 0.55(1200 - x) = 960\\\\0.85x + 660 - 0.55x = 960\\\\0.3x = 960 - 660\\\\0.3x = 300\\\\x = 1000

Pounds of 85 % protien used = 1000 pounds

Then pounds of 55 % protien used = 1200 - 1000 = 200 pounds

Thus he should use 1000 pounds of 85 % protien and 200 pounds of 55 % protien to get 1200 pounds of a high-grade 80% protein ration

Carlos biked 139/8 miles on Saturday and 135/7 miles on Sunday. On which day did he ride further and by how much?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
139/8 = 17.375 (this is rounded)
135/7 = 19.286 (this is rounded)

so he rode farther on Sunday

135/7 - 139/8 = 107/56 or 1 51/56 miles farther

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 813 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Saturday. There were 63 more cheeseburger so
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

  375 hamburgers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent the number of hamburgers. Then h+63 is the number of cheeseburgers, and the combined total is ...

  h +(h +63) = 813

  2h = 813 -63 = 750

  h = 750/2 = 375

375 hamburgers were sold on Saturday.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

In a "sum and difference" problem like this, the smaller number is half the difference between the sum and the difference. h = (813 -63)/2 = 375. This generic solution applies to all "sum and difference" problems.

Please help me i need help!
Lynna [10]

For number 22:

7y=8x-14 ; y=6

Plugging in y, we get:

7*6 = 8x - 14

42 = 8x-14

56 = 8x

x = 7

Comparing answers, x is, indeed 7.
