Mathematics

pantera1 [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = the number of pounds of cheaper coffee.

Since the merchant is mixing this with more expensive coffee, then

x + 60 = the number of pounds of medium priced mixed coffee.

The equation is gotten from this

+  =  

(x)($40)  + (60)($90)   = (x + 60)($70) or

            40x + 5400 = 70(x + 60)

Solve that equation and get x = 40

Answer: 40 pounds of $40 coffee.

i hope this helped

Law of cosines: a2 = b2 + c2 – 2bccos(A) What is the measure of S to the nearest whole degree? 19° 26° 30° 33°
sertanlavr [38]
We know that
applying the law of cosines
a² = b²+ c²<span> – 2*b*c*cos(A)
cos (A)=[b</span>²+c²-a²]/[2*b*c]
in this problem
a=10
b=17
c=18
so
cos (A)=[17²+18²-10²]/[2*17*18]-----> cos (A)=0.8382
A=arc cos (0.8382)-----> A=33.05°-----> A=33°

the answer is
33 degrees

James works as a waiter. He served meals with bills of $23.59, $40.65, $30.50, and $15.68. If his total for tips was $17.67, wha
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent, add the total for each meal to find the total dollars spent.

23.59 + 40.65 + 30.50 + 15.68 = 110.42

Divide the tip amount 17.67 by 110.42.

17.67/110.42 = 0.16

Multiply the decimal by 100 to convert to a percent.

0.16*100 = 16%
