A freight company has shipping orders for two products. The first product has a unit volume of 10 cu ft, and it weighs 50 lbs. T

he second product's unit volume is 3 cu ft, and it weighs 40 lbs. If the company's trucks have 2300 cu ft of space and can carry 21,000 lbs., how many units of each can be transported in a single shipment with one truck?

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.

So, we would need to remember, the one way that me personally would view square rooting would be by simplifying them, and that number would go into that number that many times. So, when doing this kind of problem, we are not truly going to do this, but we are just going to simplify it, and to see what other square "rooter" would go into that.

So, we would need to remember a (key) point, <em>we aren't just multiplying, for the most part, we're simplifying. </em>

Our result:

\boxed{\boxed{\bf{2a^2b \sqrt[4]{24a^2b^3} }}}

We didn't just multiplied it, we also simplified it also.

En una cancha se va a pintar la circunferencia central que tiene un diámetro de 5 m .¿cual es la longitud de la circunferencia?
Alona [7]

Answer:

The length of the circumference is 5\pi\ m  or 15.70\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question in English is</em></u>

On a court, the central circumference will be painted, which has a diameter of 5 m. What is the length of the circumference?

we know that

The circumference of a circle is given by the formula

C=\pi D

we have

D=5\ m

substitute

C=\pi (5)\\C=5\pi\ m

This is the exact value

assume

\pi=3.24

C=5(3.14)=15.70\ m

Three friends each create 4 bags of starter bread dough. After ten days, each of those four bags is then divided into four more
natta225 [31]

To begin, each of the friends have made 4 bags of dough. This gives 12 bags at the outset. After 10 days, all 12 bags are made into (4*12) bags, or 48 bags. After 20 days, the 48 bags are made into (48*4), or the required 192 bags. After 20 days, then, the friends have the needed 192 bags.
