The answer will be 17 tons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

14 T 1,000 lb. + 2 T 1,000 lb.

As we know that

$1\ ton=2000\ lbs\\\\14\ tons=2000\times 14\ lbs\\\\14\ tons=28000\ lbs$

So, 14 T 1,000 lb. is given by

$28000\ lbs+1000\ lbs\\\\=29000\ lbs$

Similarly,

$1\ ton=2000\ lbs\\\\2\Tons=2\times 2000\ lbs\\\\2\ tons=4000\ lbs$

so,

2T 1,000 lb. is given by

$4000+1000\\\\=5000\ lbs$

So, 14 T 1,000 lb. + 2 T 1,000 lbs is given by

$29000+5000\\\\=34000\ lbs\\\\=\frac{34000}{2000}\\\\=17\ tons$

Hence, the answer will be 17 tons.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Given that the first mass of the duck is 0.05 kg and it gains weight at a rate of 0.042 kg/week, the equation that would represent this scenario is,
y = 0.05 + 0.042x
where y is weight and x is the number of weeks. To determine the number of weeks in which the duck's mass becomes 0.890,
0.890 = 0.05 + 0.042x
The value of x from the equation is 20.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The inequality to determine the number of days, $s$ , Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal is:

$s\leq 15$

Thus, Darcie can skip a maximum of 15 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question

Darcie wants to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets to donate to a homeless shelter. Darcie crochets at a rate of 1/15 of a blanket per day. She has 60 days until when she wants to donate the blankets, but she also wants to skip crocheting some days so she can volunteer in other ways. Write an inequality to determine the number of days, s, Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal.

Given:

Darcie has a target to crochet a minimum of 3 blankets.

Rate at which Darcie crochets = $\frac{1}{15}$ of a blanket per day.

Darcie has 60 days to crochet the blankets

To write an inequality to determine the number of days, $s$ , Darcie can skip crocheting and still meet her goal.

Solution:

The number of days Darcie can skip crocheting is represented by $s$

So, number of days left for Darcie to crochet = $60-s$

In 1 day Darcie crochets $\frac{1}{15}$ of a blanket.

So, in $(60-s)$ days she will crochet = $\frac{1}{15}(60-s)$ blankets.

Her aim is to crochet at least 3 blankets.

Thus, the inequality can be given as:

$\frac{1}{15}(60-s)\geq 3$

Solving for $s$

Multiplying both sides by 15 to remove fractions.

$15\times\frac{1}{15}(60-s)\geq 3\times 15$

$60-s\geq 45$

Subtracting both sides by 60.

$60-60-s\geq 45-60$

$-s\geq -15$

Dividing both sides by -1.

$\frac{-s}{-1}\leq \frac{-15}{-1}$ [ On dividing by negative number the sign of the inequality is reversed]

∴ $s\leq 15$

Thus, Darcie can skip a maximum of 15 days.

What is the zero in the quadratic function f(x)= 9x^2-54x-19?

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

6.33... and 0.333...

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is

$x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$ .

It is important because while some quadratics are factorable and can be solved not all are. The formula will solve all quadratic equations and can also give both real and imaginary solutions. Using the formula will require less work than finding the factors if factorable. We will substitute a=9, b=-54 and c=-19.

$x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\\x=\frac{-(-54)+/-\sqrt{(-54)^2-4(9)(-19)} }{2(9)}\\x=\frac{54+/-\sqrt{2916+684} }{18}$
