Let x be the cups of trail mix that is 10% candy pieces

Y be the cups of trail mix that is 25% candy pieces.

 

Since the total is 18 cups

 

X + y = 18

And the mix is 20% candy

 

0.10x + 0.25y = 18(0.20)

Solving the equations simultaneously

 

X = 6 cups

<span>Y = 12 cups</span>

I need to find the volume for number 10
kumpel [21]

Using the diagonal dimension and the height we can solve for the diameter of the cylinder using the Pythagorean theorem.


x^2 + 9.5^2 = 19.3^2

x^2 + 90.25 = 372.49

x^2 = 372.49 - 90.25

x^2 = 282.24

x = √282.24

x = 16.8


Now we know the diamteer and height, we can calculate the volume using the formula V = pi * r^2 * h

r = 1/2 the diameter = 16.8/2 = 8.4

using 3.14 for pi

Volume = 3.14 * 8.4^2 * 9.5

V = 3.14 * 70.56 * 9.5

v = 3.14 * 670.32

v = 2104.8 cubic meters

A bag of chips contains 145 calories per serving. Each bag of chips contain 3 servings. How many calories are in 2 bags of chips
dybincka [34]

Answer:

870

Step-by-step explanation:

you take the calories per serving, 145, and multiply it by the number of servings in the bag, 3. this gives you 435, the number of calories in a bag. then you take the number of calories in a bag times the number of bags. you get 870

5x³+8x²-7x-6
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Whether we divide using long division or using synthetic division, the rule is the same:  If, after division, there is no remainder (i. e., the remainder is zero), the divisor binomial is a factor or the associated root is indeed a root/zero/solution.

Divide 5x³+8x²-7x-6 by (x+2) using synthetic division.  Use the divisor -2 (which comes from letting x+2 = 0):

      --------------------------

-2   /    5    8    -7    -6

                -10    4     6

     ------------------------------

          5      -2    -3    0          Since the remainder here is 0, we know that

                                               -2 is a root of 5x³+8x²-7x-6 and that (x+2) is

                                                a factor of 5x³+8x²-7x-6.


Now check out the possibility that (x+1) is a factor of  5x^3 + 8x^2 - 7x - 6:

Use -1 as the divisor in synthetic division:    

        --------------------------

-1   /    5    8    -7    -6

                -5   -3     10

     ------------------------------

          5      3   -10    4        

Since there is a non-zero remainder (4), we can conclude that (x + 1) is NOT a factor of the given polynomial expression.
