x=2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+6=8
Answer: the extraction is 18.2%.
Explanation:
Let's see few definitions:
TDS = Total Dissolved Solids = solids dissolved in the brew
PE = Percent Extraction = percent of solids extracted from the dry coffee grounds
The percent extraction can be calculated by the formula:
PE = TDS × Rm
where
Rm = ratio between the mass of the brew and the mass of dry grounds
Now, you need to consider the following facts:
1) every 1g of coffee absorbs 2g of water
2) the given brew ratio is 1:15, which means that for every 1g of grounds we use 15g of water
Let's call
x = grams of coffee grounds we want to use
Therefore the mass of the brew will be:
m(brew) = water we use - water absorbed by the coffee
= 15·x - 2·x
= 13·x
Therefore,
Rm = m(brew) / x
= 13·x / x
= 13
Hence, the percent of extraction will be:
PE = <span> TDS × Rm
= 1.4 </span>× 13
= 18.2
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
5x -2
Answer choices:
a. 2-5x
b. 3-5 +2x
c. 5x-2x
d. 2x-2+3x
a.
2-5x can be rewritten as -5x+2, which is not the same as 5x-2
b. 3-5 + 2x can be rewritten as -2 + 2x or 2x-2 which is not equivalent to 5x-2
c. 5x-2x is 3x
3x doesn't equal 5x-2
d. 2x+3x-2 = 5x-2
This expression is equivalent to 5x-2
Answer:
x = 14
y = 14
z= 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the top triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle and the triangle below is a 30-60-90 triangle.
Using the fact that the top triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle and also an isosceles triangle, we can see that <em>x</em> will be the same as its respective leg, 14
Now, we must find a side length of the bottom triangle. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the third side of the top triangle, which is also a side of the bottom triangle. We can find that the third side must be 28. We can now use this to find the other sides of the bottom triangle.
Since <em>y</em> is opposite to the 30 degree angle, it is half of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse which we found earlier is 28, therefore, <em>y</em> is 14. <em>z </em>is then 14 using either Pythagorean Theorem or special right triangle properties for 30-60-90.
Answer:
x = 1 or x = 3 / 2 or x = −5 or x = 1 / 3
