Step-by-step explanation:

let E be weight of expensive nuts, C be cheaper nuts

E*8+C*5=10*6 value equation

E+C=10 mass equation

Solve it by any method, I will do determinants

Det: 8-5=3

E= (60-50)/3=10/3 =3.33 lb

C= 80-60 /3=20/3 =6.66 lb

How many solutions does the following equation have?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

There will be No solution for the equation 9x - 4 = - 3x + 5 + 12x. Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine how many solutions the equation 9x - 4 = - 3x + 5 + 12x have.

Solving the equation and finding the solutions

9x - 4 = - 3x + 5 + 12x

Combining like terms, Moving 3x and 12x to left side of equality and changing their signs and moving 4 on right side of equation and changing sign.

9x +3x-12x =  5 + 4

Simplifying

12x-12x =  9\\0=9

Solving the equation we get 0=9 which is false. So, there will be No solution for the equation 9x - 4 = - 3x + 5 + 12x. Option B is correct.

Make a conjecture about the sum of the first 15 positive even number
erica [24]
I conclude that the sum will be even because any even number can be represented by 2n where n is a whole number
and even numbers are 2 apart, so
the sum of the first 15 are
2n+2(n+1)+2(n+2) etc until we get to 2(n+14)
we can undistribute the 2 from all of them and get
2(n+n+1+n+2...n+14)
and we are sure that whatever is in the parenthasees is a whole number because whole+whole=whole
therefor, the sum is even

if you did want to find the sum then
an=2n
the 15th even number is 30
the first is 2
S15=15(2+30)/2=15(32)/2=15(16)=240
which is even

it takes 1 hour longer to fly to st paul at 200 mi/h than it does to return at 250 mi/h. How far away is st.paul​
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

1000 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the distance equation to find the answer to this problem.

D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is rate

T is time

At 250 miles per hour, suppose it takes t hours to go to st. paul. Thus, we can write:

D = 250t

Now, at 200 mi per hour, it takes 1 hour longer, so the time is "t + 1", so we can write:

D = 200(t+1)

We can equate both and see:

250t=200(t+1)\\250t=200t+200

Now, we solve for t first:

250t=200t+200\\250t-200t=200\\50t=200\\t=\frac{200}{50}\\t=4

We want the distance of St. Paul, so we can use any equation. lets use the 1st equation:

D = 250t

we know t = 4

so

D = 250 * 4 = 1000 miles

Distance to St. Paul is 1000 miles
