Answer:

-3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The railroad track moves in a straight path from station A to station B and then from station B to station C.

Let the distance from station A to station C be AC and the distance from station B to station C as BC while the distance from station A to station B be AB the following equation holds:

AC = AB + BC

Given the distance from station A to station C is 3x + 4 and from station B to C is 6x-4, Hence:

AC = 3x + 4 and BC = 6x - 4.

Using the line segment addition postulate:

AC = AB + BC

3x + 4 = AB + (6x - 4)

AB = 3x + 4 - (6x - 4)

AB = 3x + 4 - 6x + 4

AB = 3x - 6x + 4 + 4

AB = -3x + 8

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

79.2 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

What must be done is to apply a proportion rule, taking into account what happened in the registry and what is wanted for this new year. In the following way we can calculate the amount of tons of oranges.

Powder concentrate                    Oranges

         45 tons -------------------------> 54 Tons

         66 tons -------------------------> X Tons

X = 66 * 54/45

X = 79.2, that is to say that 79.2 tons are necessary to produce 66 tons of powder concentrate to make juice.

The constraints for the problem is the number of tomatoes and cups of oil on hand. 

There are only 45 tomatoes and 10 cups of oil on hand to make both the Tuscan sauce and Marinara sauce. 

These are identified as constraints because they limit the number of Tuscan sauce and Marinara sauce that Tiffany can make.

On Sunday Sheldon bought 3 and 1/2kg of plant food. He used 1 and 2/3kg on his strawberry plants and used 1/4kg for his tomato p
notsponge [240]

The remaining plant food is: 1 7/12 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total Plant food = 3 1/2 kg

Plant food used on Strawberry Plants = 1 2/3 kg

Plant food used on tomato Plants = 1/4 kg

We will first calculate the total food plant used and then subtract the used plant food from the total plant food.

So,

Total\ Plant\ Food\ used=1\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{4}\\=\frac{5}{3}+\frac{1}{4}\\=\frac{20+3}{12}\\=\frac{23}{12}

Now,

Left\ Food\ Plant=3\frac{1}{2}-\frac{23}{12}\\=\frac{7}{2}-\frac{23}{12}\\=\frac{42-23}{12}\\=\frac{19}{12}\\=1\frac{7}{12}

The remaining plant food is: 1 7/12 kg
