Answer:

  • 238 gallons 7%
  • 119 gallons 1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent the number of gallons of high butterfat content milk. Then 357-h will be the number of gallons of 1% milk. The total amount of butterfat in the mix is ...

  0.07h +0.01(357 -h) = 0.05(357)

  0.06h = 14.28 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3.57, collect terms

  h = 238 . . . . . . . . . .  divide by 0.06

  357-h = 357 -238 = 119

238 gallons of 7% and 119 gallons of 1% are needed.

We know that
Triangle Inequality Theorem establishes that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle<span> is greater than the length of the third side
</span>so
case <span>A. 5M, 11M, 7M
5+11 > 7----> ok
11+7 > 5 ---> ok
5+7 > 11----> ok

case </span><span>B.10 m, 4 m, 5 m
5+4 > 10-----> is not ok

case </span><span>C.8 m, 4 m, 4 m
4+4 > 8----> is not ok

case </span><span>D.6 m,11 m, 5 m

Solve the linear equation by combining like terms: 23 + 7 - 2x = 8x
Aleks [24]

Answer:

23+7-2x=8x

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

23+7-2x=8x

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

-2x-8x=-23-7

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

-10x=-30

We divide both sides of the equation by -10 to get x.  

x=3

A cement path consists of six equal-sized cement squares arranged in a row to form a rectangle. If the total area of the path is
Bingel [31]

Answer:

24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The length of the rectangle is 6 times the side of a cement square.

Now, this rectangle is formed from 6 squares;

The total area of the path of this square = 96 square feet;

The area of each square now = 96/6 = 16 square feet

Recall that:

Area of a square = S²

where S is the side length

16 = S²

S = \sqrt{16}

S = 4 ft

The length of the path in feet now is: L × w

= 6 × 4

= 24 feet.

2. A bakery makes muffins and cookies. Muffins are sold 18 to a box and cookies are sold 25 to a bag. They do not sell individua
Ksivusya [100]
A) if 18 muffins = 1 box,
1020 muffins = 1020/18 boxes
= 56.67 boxes

So they used 56 full boxes.

b) if 25 cookies = 1 bag
2820 cookies = 2820/25 bags
= 112.8 bags

So they used 112 full bags.

c) the remainders from a and b represent muffins and cookies left over.
