Answer:

1.5 kg of pepper cheddar cheese and 4.5 kg of Pennsylvania jack was used in the mixture.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Pepper Cheddar cheese  = $15 per kilogram

Pennsylvania jack = $11 per kilogram

The cheese sampler includes a  Pepper Cheddar cheese and a Pennsylvania jack that cost $15 per kilogram and $11 per kilogram respectively.

The mixture = 6 kg

Let

a = kg of the pepper cheddar cheese

b = kg of the Pennsylvania jack

a + b = 6............(i)

Rate

15a + 11b/6 = 12

15a + 11b = 72.............(ii)

Combine the equation

a + b = 6............(i)

15a + 11b = 72.............(ii)

a = 6 - b

15(6 - b) + 11b = 72

90 - 15b + 11b = 72

90 - 72 = 15b - 11b

18  = 4b

divide both sides by 4

b = 18/4

b = 4.5 kg

insert the value of b in equation (i)

a + b = 6............(i)

a = 6 - 4.5

a = 1.5 kg  

1.5 kg of pepper cheddar cheese and 4.5 kg of Pennsylvania jack was used in the mixture.

Grace [21]
I had to read this a couple of times to see this was not about time, but is a right triangle problem. If the hour hand is at three, let us consider that a leg of a right triangle, we will consider the hypotenuse as the second hand.
Sketch the picture. 

The hypotenuse is 9 cm. the angle is found by: 

the (hour hand) is pointing directly at the 12. I expect you mean the minute hand. The angle between the minute hand and the second hand is 25/60*360 = 150 which make the angle between the hour hand and the second hand. 150 -90 =60 

so the second hand and the hour hand gives us a right triangle, with a 60 degree angle and a hyp. of 9 cm. 

cos 60 = x/9 

9 cos 60 =x

x = 4.5 cm

Unoccupied seats on flights cause airlines to lose revenue. Suppose a large airline wants to estimate its average number of unoc
Bingel [31]

Answer:

We need a sample size of at least 719

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How large a sample size is required to vary population mean within 0.30 seat of the sample mean with 95% confidence interval?

This is at least n, in which n is found when M = 0.3, \sigma = 4.103. So

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

0.3 = 1.96*\frac{4.103}{\sqrt{n}}

0.3\sqrt{n} = 1.96*4.103

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*4.103}{0.3}

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*4.103}{0.3})^{2}

n = 718.57

Find the values if x and y
SOVA2 [1]

Note that: (10x - 61) & (x + 10) are supplementary angles, and (10x-61) & (18y + 5) are vertical angles

10x - 61 + x + 10 = 180

Simplify

11x - 51 = 180

Isolate the x

11x - 51 (+51) = 180 (+51)

11x = 231

Divide 11 from both sides

11x/11 = 231/11

Divide

x = 21

180 = 18y + 5 + x + 10

180 = 18y + 5 + (21) + 10

Simplify

180 = 18y + 36

Subtract 36 from both sides

180 (-36) = 18y + 36 (-36)

144 = 18y

Divide 18 from both sides

144/18 = 18y/18

y = 144/18

y = 8

x = 21, y = 8 are your answers

hope this helps
