A company mixes pecans, cashews, peanuts, and walnuts to make a batch of mixed nuts.

Mathematics

Answer:

500 lbs of mixed nuts

Step-by-step explanation:

15.4% of mixed nuts = 77 lbs of pecans

Divide the weight of pecans by the percent of mixed nuts to find how many pounds of pecans equal 1% of the mixed nuts:

77 / 15.4 = 5,  so 5 lbs equals 1% of mixed nuts

Now multiply that number by 100 to get 100% of mixed nuts:

5 x 100 = 500

Therefore, there are 500 lbs of mixed nuts in a batch altogether.

To check, 15.4% = 15.4/100 = 0.514

Therefore, 15.4% of 500 = 0.514 x 500 = 77

Thereby proving that 15.4% of 500 is 77.

A square pyramid is shown: 0.4 feet , 0.4 feet , 5 feet What is the surface area of the pyramid?
Vlad [161]
A square pyramid is called like so because its base is a square.

notice this one, its base is a 0.4x0.4 square, and the triangular faces have a base of 0.4 and an altitude or height of 5.

so we can simply get the area of the base and all four triangular faces and sum them up, and that's the surface area of the pyramid.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{squarish base}}{(0.4\cdot 0.4)}~~+~~\stackrel{\textit{4 triangles}}{4\left[\cfrac{1}{2}(0.4)(5)  \right]}\implies 0.16~~+~~4\implies 4.16
