Amount of instant tea = 24 ounces

Amount of green tea = 12 ounces

Caffeine in instant tea = 40 mg / 8 fl. oz. = 5 mg/fl.oz.

Caffeine in green tea = 25 mg /8 fl. oz. = 3.125 mg/fl.oz.

Caffeine in 24 ounces of instant tea = 5* 24 = 120 mg

Caffeine in 12 ounces of green tea = 3.125 * 12 = 37.5 mg

Total amount of the mixture = 24 + 12 =36 ounces

Total amount of caffeine in the mixture = 120 + 37.5 = 157.5 mg

Caffeine per ounce in the final mixture = 157.5 / 36 = 4.375 mg/ fl.oz

An equation for the depreciation of a car is given by y = A(1 – r)t , where y = current value of the car, A = original cost, r =
Mamont248 [21]
<h2>The car is about 6.6 years old.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An equation for the depreciation of a car is given by y = A(1-r)^t, where y = current value of the car, A = original cost, r = rate of depreciation, and t = time, in years. The value of a car is half what it originally cost. The rate of depreciation is 10%.

To find : Approximately how old is the car?

Solution :

The value of a car is half what it originally cost i.e. y=\frac{1}{2} A

The rate of depreciation is 10% i.e. r=10%=0.1

Substitute in the equation, y = A(1-r)^t

\frac{1}{2} A= A(1-0.1)^t

\frac{1}{2}= (0.9)^t

Taking log both side,

\log(\frac{1}{2})=t\log (0.9)

t=\frac{\log(\frac{1}{2})}{\log (0.9)}

t=6.57

t\approx 6.6

Therefore, the car is about 6.6 years old.

Alex the electrician needs 34 yards of electrical wire to complete his job. He has a coil of wiring in his workshop. The coiled
bogdanovich [222]

Answer: This coil will not be enough to complete the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of the coil of wiring can be calculated with:

C=2\pi r

Where r is the radius and \pi=3.14

The radius can be calculated by dividing the diameter by 2. Then:

r=\frac{18in}{2}\\\\r=9in

Convert 9 inches to yards (1 yard=36 inches):

(9in)(\frac{1yd}{36in})=0.25yd

Substitute this radius into the formula:

C=2(3.14)(0.25yd)\\C=1.57yd

Since there are 21 circles of wire, you need to multiply C=1.57yd by 21:

C_T=(1.57yd)(21)=32.97yd

The coil has 32.97 yards of wire and Alex needs 34 yards, therefore, this coil will not be enough  to complete the job.
