The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. Since 3in, 4in, and 8in. Since 6+14 > 10,6+ 10 > 14, and 10 + 14 > 6, you can form a triangle with the lengths 6m, 14m, and 10m.

A dairy wishes to mix together 1,000 pints of milk that contains 8% butterfat.If the mixture is to be made from milk containing

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

800 pints of 5% butterfat and 200 pints of 20% butterfat is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A dairy wishes to mix together 1,000 pints of milk that contains 8% butterfat.

If the mixture is to be made from milk containing 5% butterfat, and cream

containing 20% butterfat.

Now, to find the pints of each is needed.

Let the pints of 5% butterfat be $x.$

And the pints of 20% butterfat be $y.$

So, the total pints of milk:

$x+y=1000$

$x=1000-y$ ......(1)

As, given:

1,000 pints of milk that contains 8% butterfat.

The mixture of milk containing 5% butterfat, and cream containing 20% butterfat.

According to question:

$5(x)+20(y)=8(1000)$

$5x+20y=8000$

Substituting the value of $x$ from equation (1):

$5(1000-y)+20y=8000$

$5000-5y+20y=8000$

$5000+15y=8000$

Subtracting both sides by 5000 we get:

$15y=3000$

Dividing both sides by 15 we get:

$y=200.$

The pints of 20% butterfat = 200 pints.

Now, to get the pints of 5% butterfat we put the value of $y$ in equation (1):

$x=1000-y$

$x=1000-200$

$x=800.$

The pints of 5% butterfat = 800 pints.

Therefore, 800 pints of 5% butterfat and 200 pints of 20% butterfat is needed.

Chuy wants to buy a new television. The television costs $1,350. Chuy decides to save the same amount of money each week, for 27

mars1129 [50]

Answer: option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The television costs $1,350. Chuy decides to save the same amount of money each week, for 27 weeks. After 8 weeks Chuy saved $440. This means that the amount that she saved per week is

440/8 = $55

If she saves $55 in 8 weeks, the number of weeks left is

27 - 8 = 19 week

Amount that she would save in 19 weeks is

19 × 55 = 1045

Total amount saved in 27 weeks is

1045 + 440 = $1485

Therefore, the conclusion that you can make about Chuy's plan is

C. Chuy will save more than he needs and will meet his goal in less than 27 weeks.
