Answer:
Acording to the question,
Cost per cup = $1.29
Total number of cups = 12
Total cost of cups = 12 x 1.2 = $15.48
Cost of candies = $2.49 per cup
Total number of candies = x
Cost of nuts = $0.69 per cup
Total number of nuts = y
Equations :
x + y = 12 (because total cups of nuts and candies will be equal to 12)
2.49x + 0.69y = 15.48 (Total cost of the 12 cups should be 15.48)
<u>Step 1 : Find x in terms of y</u>
x = 12 - y
<u>Step 2 : substitute x in terms of y from step 1 in the second equation</u>
2.49x + 0.69y = 15.48
2.49 ( 12 - y) + 0.69y = 15.48
29.88 - 2.49y + 0.69y = 15.48
-1.8y = -14.4
y = 14.4/1.8
y = 8
Step 3 : Find x
x + y = 12
x = 12 - y
x = 12- 8
x = 4
Thus,Yumi should use 4 cups of candies and 8 cups of nuts.
Answer:
She subtracted the GCF from the second term in the expression instead of dividing.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression 32ab-8b, to find the common greatest factor, we will bring out a function that us common to both terms 32ab and 8b. To do that, we need to first find their individual factors as shown:
32ab = (2×2×2)×2×2×a×(b)
8b = (2×2×2×b)
From both factors, the common terms are the values in parenthesis i.e 2×2×2×b = 8b
Hence the GCF of the expression 32ab - 8b is 8b. On factoring out 8b from the expression we will have;
= 32ab - 8b
= 8b(32ab/8b - 8b/8b)
= 8b(4a-1)
Comparing the gotten equation with Venita's own, 8b(4a-0), we can say that she correctly factored out the GCF but her error was that she subtracted 8b from the second term of the expression instead of dividing by 8b. 8b-8b is what gives her 0 making her expression wrong. She should have divided her second term also by 8b to have 8b/8b which results in 1 instead of 0 that venita got.
Use the FOIL method (First, Outside, Inside, Last)
6r(-8r) = -48r²
6r(-3) = -18r
-1(-8r) = 8r (note: two negatives multiplied together = positive answer)
-1(-3) = 3
-48r² - 18r + 8r + 3
Combine like terms:
-48r² - 18r + 8r + 3
-48r² - 10r + 3
-48r² - 10r + 3 is your answer

Answer:
a) 23.76%
b) 7.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
a) probability that a failure is due to loose keys.
loose key failure (27%) comes under mechanical failure(88%)
hence, probability that a failure is due to loose keys= 0.27×0.88= 0.2376= 23.76%
b) probability that a failure is due to improperly connected wire which comes under electrical failure = 0.12×0.13
probability that a failure is due to poorly welded wires which comes under electrical failure= 0.52×0.12
now, the probability that a failure is due to improperly connected or poorly welded wires. = 0.12(0.52+0.13)= 0.078= 7.8%
Answer:
The smallest bag that has enough food to feed his bag for one month
= 3.6 kilogram
Step-by-step explanation:
The quantity of dry food Ray feeds his dog = 0.12 kilogram
So the quantity of food he feeds his dog in one month
= 0.12 × 30 ∵ since 1 month = 30 days
= 3.6 kilogram
The smallest bag that has enough food to feed his bag for one month
= 3.6 kilogram
