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:
The largest possible area of the deck is 87.11 m² with dimensions;
Width = 9.33 m
Breadth = 9.33 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a given dimension increases as the dimension covers more equidistant dimension from the center, which gives the quadrilateral with largest dimension being that of a square
Given that the railings will be placed on three sides only and the third side will cornered or left open, such that the given length of railing can be shared into three rather than four to increase the area
The length of the given railing = 28 m
The sides of the formed square area by sharing the railing into three while the fourth side is left open are then equal to 28/3 each
The area of a square of side s = s²
The largest possible area of the deck = (28/3)² = 784/9 = 87.11 m² with dimensions;
Width = 28/3 m = 9.33 m
Breadth = 28/3 m = 9.33 m.

Answer:
The value of y is 6
units ⇒ 2nd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
In the attached figure
∵ ∠MTN is a right angle
∵ TU is the altitude of the triangle
- There are some rules in this triangle let us revise them
- (NT)² = NU . NM
- (MT)² = MU . MN
- (TU)² = MU . NU
- TM . TN = TU . MN
∵ NU = 9 units
∵ UM = 3 units
∵ MN = UM + NU
∴ MN = 3 + 9 = 12 units
- By using the 1st rule above
∴ (NT)² = 9 × 12
∴ (NT)² = 108
- Take a square root to both sides
∴ NT =
- Simplify the root
∴ NT = 6
units
∵ NT is y
∴ y = 6
units
The value of y is 6
units
Answer:
Total amount of water = 5,200,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
water produced = 50,000 quarts of water per week
Production drop = 5% = 0.05 per year
Number of week in year = 52 week
Find:
Total amount of water
Computation:
Sum = a / r
a = 50,000 x 52
a = 2,600,000
Sum = a / [1-r]
Sum = 2,600,000 / 5%
Sum = 2,600,000 / 0.05
Total amount of water = 5,200,000
