A baker uses chocolate with 75% cocoa for his famous cake. But his supplier delivered 100 lb of chocolate with 70% cocoa, so the baker needs to melt and mix the delivery with chocolate that has 90% cocoa. How much of the 90% chocolate should he use?

Answers

Answer 1

33 1/3 BTW i am from RSM too :)

Answer 2

33.33 lb of 90% cocoa cholcolate should be mixed.

What are percentages?

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate the percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100. Hence, the percentage means, a part per hundred. The word percent means per 100. It is represented by the symbol “%”

Given here: A baker has to mix 70% cocoa with 90% cocoa and he has 100 lb of the first chocolate.

let x lb of chocolate be mixed with 100 lb to give the 75 % chocolate variety

Thus, x×90%+100×70% / 90%+70% = 75%

         0.9x+70 /x+100=0.75

         0.9x+70=0.75x+75

           0.15x=5

                 x=33.33

Thus 33.33 lbs of 90% cocoa should be mixed to get 75% cocoa

Hence, 33.33 lb of 90% cocoa cholcolate should be mixed.

Find the equation of the line

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for slope-intercept form, y = mx + a.

Given:

(1, -5) and (9, 11)

Find the slope (m) between the two points:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

x1 = 1

x2 = 9

y1 = -5

y2 = 11

m = ( 11 - (-5) )/(9 - 1)

= 16/8

m = 2

y = 2x + a

Use one of the two points to find a (I will use (1, -5)):

-5 = 2(1) + a

-5 = 2 + a

-7 = a

a = -7

y = 2x + (-7)

y = 2x - 7

Answer : x= 6 , y=1
Explanation:

Answer:

(6, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation for (y), [y=x-5]

So we can implement that in all the places the (y) are in the other equation.

x+3(x-5)=9

x+3x-15=9

add 15 to each side

4x=24

Divide each side by 4

x=6

Now we can apply our (x) into one of the equations.

y=(6)-5

y=1

So our solution is (6, 1)

I need the slope and the y - intercept in the equation. I’ll give you a if you help me

Answers

Answer:

m = slope = 1/2The y-intercept = (0, 5) The equation of the line is:

        [tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the line graph

Some of the points on the line are given by

(0, 5)(2, 6)(4, 7)(6, 8)

Finding the slop between any two given points

Let us take the point (0, 5) and (2, 6)

[tex]\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:5\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(2,\:6\right)[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{6-5}{2-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

To the  y-intercept, set x = 0.

We already know that when x = 0, the value of y = 5

so

The y-intercept = (0, 5)

Equation of line can be obtained using the point-slope form of the line equation

[tex]y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)[/tex]

substituting the values m = 1/2 and any point let say (2, 6)

[tex]y-6=\frac{1}{2}\left(x-2\right)[/tex]

add 6 to both sides

[tex]y-6+6=\frac{1}{2}\left(x-2\right)+6[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+5[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+5[/tex]

The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 292 m.
If the length of the parking lot is 81 m, what is its width?

Answers

Answer:

the answer would be 211

Step-by-step explanation:

you simply add the length and width together to find perimeter. since you have the total perimeter and the length you would instead subtract the two.

292-81= 211

Answer:

68m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter  of a rectangle with length  and width  is given by the following.

P=21+2w

We need to find w when P=292 m  and l+78m .

Using these values in the equation above, we'll solve for w.

P=21+2w

292=2(78)+2w

292=156+2w

136=2w

68=w

Subtracting 156  from both sides

Dividing both sides by  2

So the width of the parking lot is 68m

Sam and Sara bought the same number of pencils. Sam put ¼ of his pencils in his pencil box and Sara put ½ of her pencils in her pencil box. If sam had put 5 in his box then how many pencils did sara put in her pencil box?

Answers

Answer:

10 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of pencils bought by Sam and Sara are the same.

Let the number of pencils bought = x

Sam put 1/4 in his pencil box

Sara put 1/2 in her pencil box

1/4 of Sam's pencil = 5

That is ;

1/4 of x = 5

x /4 = 5

x = 20

Hence, number of pencils Sara put in her box

:

1/2 of 20

1/2 * 20

20/2

= 10

Question:

The area, a, of an ellipse can be determined using the formula a = πxy, where x and y are half the lengths of the largest and smallest diameters of the ellipse. Which is an equivalent equation solved for y?

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{a}{\pi x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a = \pi xy[/tex]

Required

Solve for y

The question implies that, we make y the subject of formula:

This is done as follows:

[tex]a = \pi xy[/tex]

Divide through by [tex]\pi x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{\pi x} = \frac{\pi xy}{\pi x}[/tex]

Isolate y on the right hand side

[tex]\frac{a}{\pi x} = y[/tex]

Reorder

[tex]y = \frac{a}{\pi x}[/tex]

Hence, the solution to the question is: [tex]y = \frac{a}{\pi x}[/tex]
