A few students conducted a study on how many peanuts it would take to completely fill a jar. They had the following data to help

them with the study: In a container with a volume of 108 they could fit 65 peanuts. In a container with a volume of 150 they could fit 90 peanuts. The height of the jar for the peanuts is 16 cm and the radius is 3.5 cm. What number would be a good estimate for the number of peanuts in a jar this size?

Answer:

370 peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

65/108 = 0.60185

90/150 = 0.6000

In each case, the number of peanuts is either exactly or very close to 60% of the volume.

A cylinder with radius 3.5 cm and height 16 cm has volume:

V = (pi)r^2h

V = (3.14159)(3.5 cm)^2(16 cm)

V = 615.752 cm^3

We take 60% of the volume to estimate the number of peanuts.

60% * 615.752 cm^3 = 369.451

Answer: 370 peanuts

Solve the system by the substitution method.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations

x-3y=-4-------------------------------(1)

y=-3x+8.------------------------------(2)

Substitute 2 in 1. This means use the value of y in equation 1, to replace y

x-3(-3x+8)=-4------------------open brackets

x+9x-24=-4---------------------collect like terms

10x=-4+24

10x=20---------------------------divide by 10 both sides to get value of x

10x/10=20/10=2

x=2------------------------------use value of x in equation (2) to get value of y

y=-3x+8

y=-3(2)+8

y=-6+8=2

solutions

x=2, y=2

Otto used 5.5 cups of whole wheat flour and x cups of white flour in the recipe. What is the equation that can be used to find t
sashaice [31]

Answer:

This situation of the recipe can be represented as y=x+5.5 and it is expected that x is ≥ 0 and y is ≥ 5.5.

What is the equation for this situation?

It is known the total amount of flour (y) is equivalent to the total amount of whole wheat flour (5.5) added to the total white flour (x). Therefore, the equation is:

y = x + 5.5

The possible values are

x = It is expected x is equalthan 0 or greater to it since the minimum amount of white flour that can be added is 0.

y = It is expected y is equal than 5.5 or greater to it since even if no

white flour is added the minimum total is 5.5.
