1. You have the following information given in the problem above:
- Ella mixed<span> two kinds of candy the price of which was $2 and $4 per pound.
- Ella got a 10-lb mix of candy, which cost $2.90 per pound.
</span>
2. Therefore, let's call:
x: pounds of the first kind of candy.
y: pounds of the second kind of candy.
3. Then, you have:
2x+4(10-x)=(2.90)(10)
4. When you clear x, you obtain:
2x+40-4x=29
-2x=29-40
x=-11/-2
x=5.5 pounds
x+y=10
y=10-x
y=10-5.5
y=4.5 pounds
Answer:
<h2>14mph</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the gas mileage for a certain vehicle modeled by the equation m=−0.05x²+3.5x−49 where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. In order to determine the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg, we will substitute the value of m = 9 into the modeled equation and calculate x as shown;
m = −0.05x²+3.5x−49
when m= 9
9 = −0.05x²+3.5x−49
−0.05x²+3.5x−49 = 9
0.05x²-3.5x+49 = -9
Multiplying through by 100
5x²+350x−4900 = 900
Dividing through by 5;
x²+70x−980 = 180
x²+70x−980 - 180 = 0
x²+70x−1160 = 0
Using the general formula to get x;
a = 1, b = 70, c = -1160
x = -70±√70²-4(1)(-1160)/2
x = -70±√4900+4640)/2
x = -70±(√4900+4640)/2
x = -70±√9540/2
x = -70±97.7/2
x = -70+97.7/2
x = 27.7/2
x = 13.85mph
x ≈ 14 mph
Hence, the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg to the nearest mph is 14mph

Answer:
Campsites be chosen in 680 ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of campsites= 17
Number of campsites that are to be occupied=3
To Find:
Number of ways can the campsites be chosen=?
Solution:
Combination:
In mathematics, a combination is a way of selecting items from a collection where the order of selection does not matter. Suppose we have a set of three numbers P, Q and R. Then in how many ways we can select two numbers from each set, is defined by combination.
nCr = n(n - 1)(n - 2) ... (n - r + 1)/r! = n! / r!(n - r)!
No of ways in which campsites can be chosen=
