Answer:

10.54 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Half of blueberries is served with breakfast

The remaining 5270g is served with dinner

How many kilograms of blueberries did the science camp start with :

Total grams of blue berries :

(Grams served at breakfast + grams served at dinner)

Let total blueberries = x

x/2 + 5270 = x

(x + 10540) /2 = x

x + 10540 = 2x

10540 = 2x - x

x = 10540 grams

Amount of kilograms science camp started with = (10540) / 1000 = 10.54 kg

Angela and Neil are going to the movies. They each bought a medium popcorn, and Neil got a small soft drink. Angela had a $5 gif
bagirrra123 [75]
Let us assume the cost of a soft drink = x dollars
Value of the gift certificate that Angela had = $5
Cost of the movie ticket = $10
Cost of a medium popcorn = $5.50
Then
27.90 + 5 = 2(10) + 2(5.50) + x
32.90 = 20 + 11 + x
32.90 = 31 + x
x = 1.90 dollars

From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or $1.90.

Nikki drew a rectangle with a perimeter of 18 units on a coordinate grid. Two of the vertices were (4, –3) and (–1, –3). What co
Talja [164]

Answer:

There are two possible solutions for the other two vertices of the rectangle:

(i) (4, 1), (-1, 1), (ii) (4, -7), (-1, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometrically speaking, the perimeter of a rectangle (p) is:

p = 2\cdot b + 2\cdot h (1)

Where:

b - Base of the rectangle.

h - Height of the rectangle.

Let suppose that the base of the rectangle is the line segment between (4, -3) and (-1, -3). The length of the base is calculated by Pythagorean Theorem:

b = \sqrt{[(-1)-4]^{2}+[(-3)-(-3)]^{2}}

b = 5

If we know that p = 18 and b = 5, then the height of the rectangle is:

2\cdot h = p-2\cdot b

h = \frac{p-2\cdot b}{2}

h = \frac{p}{2}-b

h = 4

There are two possible solutions for the other two vertices of the rectangle:

(i) (4, 1), (-1, 1), (ii) (4, -7), (-1, -7)

In triangle $DEF,$ $\angle D = 30^\circ,$ $\angle F = 60^\circ,$ and $EF = 6.$ Find $DE + DF.$ [asy] unitsize(2 cm); pair D, E,
sergey [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to this question is 12+6sqrt3.

This is because of the 30, 60, and 90 degree rule. The rule states that the hypotenuse is equal to twice the length of the shorter leg, which is the side across from the 30 degree angle.

Using the rule you now know that DF is 12. Then use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of DE. 12^2=144, and 6^2=36. 144-36=108.

The square root of 108 simplified=6sqrt3.

Then you add them together and get 12+6sqrt3.

a computer shop charges 20 pesos per hour (or a fraction of an hour) for the first two hours and additional 10 pesos per hour fo
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The equation for the price, as a function of time in hours is:

P(x) = 20*x    for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2

P(x) = 40 + 10*(x - 2)  for  2 ≤ x

Now, we want to evaluate this function in 40 mins.

we know that 1 hour = 60mins.

Then 40 mins = (40/60) hours = 0.67 hours.

Then we input this in our function, and because this is smaller than 2, we use the first piece of our function:

P(0.67) = 20*0.67 = 13.4

So in 40 mins, the charge will be 13.4 pesos.
