Answer:
The fraction of one pound of cheese to be used in each sandwich is 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we have a question that requires the method of dealing with the division of fractions.
To divide a fraction by a whole number, we multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number as follows;

Quantity of cheese Shane has = 1/2 pound
Number of sandwiches to be made = 4
Amount of cheese per sandwich = 1/2÷4 = 1/8.
Total investment = $10,500
Let x = amount of first investment, and y the amount of the second investment.
First investment:
Interest rate = 9 (1/5)% = 0.092
Earned interest = 0.092x
Second investment:
Interest rate = 9% = 0.09
Earned interest = 0.09y
Total interest after one year is $957.00, therefore
0.092x + 0.09y = 957
or
1.0222x + y = 10633.33 (1)
Also,
x + y = 10500 (2)
Subtract (2) from (1).
0.0222x = 133.33
x = 6000
y = 10500 - x = 4500
Answer:
The first investment is $6,000 at 9 (1/5)% rate;
The second investment is $4,500 at 9% rate.
5 I think I'm not surreeeeee
Answer:
32°
Step-by-step explanation:
use this formula :
Now you want to get the angle be x, so the opposite side is 28 and hypotenuse is 53. Putting in the formula we get:
Sin(x) = 28/53
Sin(x)= 0.5283018868
So to find x just do Sin^-1
x = Sin^-1 (0.5283018868)
you get 31.8907918, ok so we just want the nearest degree and if we do that we get 32˚
if you put them into your calculator you will get 32˚ as your answer
Answer:
length: 13 cm
width: 5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
You may be aware that 65 = 5×13. We note that 13 is 3 more than twice 5, so these are the dimensions of the rectangle:
5 cm wide; 13 cm long
__
If you want so solve this algebraically, you can let w represent the width. Then the length is 2w+3 and the area is ...
A = LW
65 = (2w+3)(w)
In standard form, this equation is ...
2w^2 +3w -65 = 0
To factor this, you look for factors of 2×(-65) = -130 that have a sum of 3. Those would be ...
-130 = (-10)(13)
Then the factored equation is ...
2w^2 +13w -10w -65 = 0
w(2w+13) -5(2w+13) = 0
(w -5)(2w +13) = 0 ⇒ w = 5, -13/2
The positive solution makes sense in this problem, so ...
width = 5 cm
length = 2(5) +3 = 13 cm
