So, Bob needs 2 cups of concentrate (I'll use the variable c to shorten it) for every 3.5 cups of water (w). When he has 6 cups of c, he has three times the original recipe, and therefore we need 3w as well. 

3.5x2=6+1=7. So we need 7 cups of water.

Now, 6 cups of concentrate + 7 cups of water = 13 cups of orange juice.

Bob can make 13 cups of orange juice.

Hope I helped!

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

For a = 1.22 there is one solution where y = 1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let´s write the system of equations:

a(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4x(y-1.2) = 0

-1.2(x-0.5) = 0

Let´s solve the second equation for x:

-1.2(x-0.5) = 0

x- 0.5 = 0

x = 0.5

Now let´s repalce x = 0.5 and y = 1.3 in the first equation and solve it for a:

a(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4x(y-1.2) = 0

a(0.3 - 1.3) + 1.1 + 2.4(0.5)(1.3 -1.2) = 0

a(-1) + 1.1 + 1.2(0.1) = 0

-a + 1.22 = 0

-a = -1.22

a = 1.22

Let´s check the solution and solve the system of equations with a = 1.22. Let´s solve the first equation for y:

1.22(0.3 - y) + 1.1 +2.4(0.5)(y-1.2) = 0

0.366 - 1.22y + 1.1 + 1.2 y - 1.44 = 0

-0.02y +0.026 = 0

-0.02y = -0.026

y = -0.026 / -0.02

y = 1.3

Then, the answer is correct.

Have a nice day!

A rectangle’s width is 2 meters shorter than its length, l. Its area is 168 square meters. Which equation can be used to find th
Dmitry [639]
The area (A) of the triangle is the product of its length (l) and width (w). A = l x w. Since the width is 2 m shorter than the length, it may be expressed as w = l -2. The equation for area becomes,
                          A = l x (l - 2)
Substituting the known area and rearranging the equation gives,
                           l(l - 2) = 168.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer: (1) C. 65 + 28H < 250

(2) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the correct question:

Anand needs to hire a plumber. He's considering a plumber that charges an initial fee of $65 along with an

hourly rate of $28. The plumber only charges for a whole number of hours. Anand would like to spend no more than $250, and he wonders how many hours of work he can afford.

Let H represent the whole number of hours that the plumber works.

1) Which inequality describes this scenario?

Choose 1 answer:

A. 28 + 65H < 250

B. 28 + 65H > 250

C. 65 + 28H < 250

D. 65 +28H > 250

2) What is the largest whole number of hours that Anand can afford?​

Since the initial fee charged by the plumber is $65 and an hourly rate of $28, and Anand would like to spend no more than $250. This means that the addition of the initial fee plus the hourly fee based on number of hours worked will have to be less than $250. This can be mathematically expressed as:

= 65 + 28H < 250

That means option C is the correct answer.

Option B and D are incorrect because the greater sign was used but Anand doesn't want to spend more than $250 but the options denoted that he spent more than $250 which isn't correct.

2)'The largest whole number of hours that Anand can afford goes thus:

65 + 28H < 250

28H < 250 - 65

28H < 185

H < 185/28

H < 6.6

Therefore, the largest whole number of hours that Anand can afford is 6.
