Answer:

116 units of the first product

380 units of the second product

Step-by-step explanation:

Product 1 has a unit volume of  10 cu ft

Product 2 has a unit volume of 3 cu ft

The truck has 2300 cu ft of space

Product 1 weighs 50 lbs

Product 2 weighs 40 lbs

The truck can carry 21000 lbs

Let X be the units of product 1

Let Y be the units of product 2

The given information can be expressed as:

10X+3Y=2300...(1)

50X+40Y=21000...(2)

Solving the system of equations:

10X+3Y=2300...(1)

10X=2300-3Y

X=(2300-3Y)/10

Substituting X in (2) we have:

50X+40Y=21000

50[(2300-3Y)/10]+40Y=21000

50[(2300/10)-(3Y/10)]+40Y=21000

50[230-(3Y/10)+40Y=21000

11500-(150Y/10)+40Y=21000

11500-15Y+40Y=21000

11500+25Y=21000

25Y=21000-11500

25Y=9500

Y=380

Substituting Y in (1) we have:

10X+3Y=2300...(1)

10X+3(380)=2300

10X+1140=2300

10X=2300-1140

10X=1160

X=116

So 116 units of the first product and 380 units of the second product can be transported in a single shipment with one truck.

How do you do box and whisker plots?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Find the five number summary of the data:

Minimum = x

Quartile 1 = x

Quartile 2 (median) = x

Quartile 3 = x

Maximum = x

Then, make the plot based on that information. If you are provided with a list of data, you should be able to use a calculator to find out that information.

Answer:

In case (a) car makes 105° turn.

In case (b) car makes 75° turn.

In case (c) car makes 105° turn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure is redrawn To explain properly (in attachment)

Given : streets are parallel means \overline{AB} ║ \overline{CD},

             AB - 4th street , CD - 3rd street and XY - King Ave.

            ∠XLA = 75°

To find : (a) ∠XLB

              (b) ∠LMD (left onto 3rd streat means left of car)

              (c) ∠YMD (right means right side of car)

∠XLB + ∠XLA = 180° (Linear Pair = 2 adjacent angles are  

                                     supplementary)

∠XLB + 75° = 180°

∠XLB  = 180 - 75

∠XLB = 105°

∴ In case (a) car makes 105° turn.

∠LMD = ∠XLA = 75° (Corresponding angles of parallel lines are equal)

∠LMD = 75°

∴ In case (b) car makes 75° turn.

∠YMD + ∠LMD = 180° (Linear Pair = 2 adjacent angles are

                                       supplementary)

∠YMD + 75° = 180°

∠YMD = 180 - 75

∠YMD = 105°

∴In case (c) car makes 105° turn.

Fed [463]
The answer would be B) 5.90x > 236
This is because Jay needs at least 236 therefore the money he earns from working at the ice cream parlor would need to be higher than 236.
