metalworker has a metal alloy that is 25​% copper and another alloy that is 70​%
copper. How many kilograms of each alloy should the metalworker combine to create 50kg of a 52​% copper alloy

Answers

Answer 1

x = amount (kg) of 25% coper alloy

y = amount (also kg) of 70% copper alloy

Each kilogram of the 25% alloy contains 0.25 kg of copper, while each kilogram of the 70% alloy contains 0.7 kg of copper. When combined, the metalworker ends up with (x + y) kg of an alloy that should consist of 52% copper, so that it contains 0.52 (x + y) kg of copper.

The metalworker wants to make 50 kg of this new alloy, so that

x + y = 50

of which 52%, 0.52 (50 kg) = 26 kg, is copper, so

0.25x + 0.7y = 26

Solve for y in terms of x :

y = 50 - x

Substitute this into the other equation and solve for x :

0.25x + 0.7 (50 - x) = 26

0.25x + 35 - 0.7x = 26

9 = 0.45x

x = 20   →  y = 30

O 1,400-1,800
O 1,500-1,700
O 1,300-1,900
O 0-3,200



20 POINTS

plz help

Thank you

Answers

Answer:

The solution is 1,300-1,900

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply put:

The standard deviation is 100. Because the range is 3 standard deviations, you add and subtract 300 from 1,600 instead of the normal 100.

So,

1,600 - 300 = 1,300

1,600 + 300 = 1,900

So, your answer is the third option: Between 1,300 and 1,900

The correct answer is 1,300 - 1,900.

What is the solution to the gaming systems of linear equations 2X plus 3Y equals 13 for a 6+ 6Y equals 14

Answers

Answer:

(9/2, 4/3) or just x = 9/2, y = 4/3. (it's the same thing)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the first equation 2x + 3y = 13 by 2, so that you get 4x + 6y = 26. Now you have the same coefficient for y. Now, subtract the second equation 6y = 8 (i simplified it first) from the first one that is doubled. After that, you would have just one equation, 4x = 18. So x = 18/4 = 9/2. Substitute x to solve for y, and you'd get 4/3.

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-6, 8 1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations appears to be ...

2x +3y = 136x +6y = 14

Dividing the first equation by 2 gives ...

  3x +3y = 7

Subtracting the first equation from this, we get ...

  (3x +3y) -(2x +3y) = (7) -(13)

  x = -6

Then substituting for x in the first equation, we have ...

  2(-6) +3y = 13

  3y = 25 . . . . . . . . add 12

  y = 25/3 = 8 1/3 . . . . divide by 3

The solution is (x, y) = (-6, 8 1/3).

After the tails flip, two heads follow.

Hey there!

Do you remember what the Distributive property states? If not, no worries! Here's what this property states:

a(b+c)=ab+ac

In this formula, a, b, and c can be

Constants. These are numbers like 1, 2, 3, or -1, -2, -3... or even fractions, decimals... (all real numbers)Variables. These are letters like d, a, s, e, t, k, a...Variables can have a number next to them; it's called a coefficient.

Now that we know what this property states, let's simplify this expression.

5(x-2)

First, multiply 5 times x:

5x (5 is the coefficient of x, by the way)

Then, multiply 5 times -2 (please pay attention to the sign) :)

-10

Put both terms together.

Hence, the simplified expression is

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\bold{5x-10}}}[/tex]

Is it possible to simplify the expression any further? No.

Why? Because 5x and -10 aren't like terms, so we cannot combine them.

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Both  the circle A and F have same radius and diameter.

What is Radius of circle?

Any circular object's radius is the measurement from the centre to its outermost border or boundary. A radius is a dimension that applies to spheres, semispheres, cones with circular bases, and cylinders with circular bases in addition to circles.

It is possible to define a circle as the locus of a point moving in a plane while maintaining a constant distance from a fixed point. The radius of a circle is the distance from any point on the circle to its center. The fixed point is referred to as the centre of the circle.

Given:

We have Two circles named A and F.

Now, the radius of circle A is 4cm

So, the diameter of Circle A is 4 x2 = 8 cm

Now, the Diameter of Circle F is 8 cm

Hence, both the circle A and F have same radius and diameter.

question:find the angle measure of the missing angle

if you can pls explain ​

Answers

Answer:

85°

Step-by-step explanation:

So in geometry, the formula to find the sum of all interior angles is denoted as follows:

n = number of sides in the polygon

( n - 2 ) × 180° = sum of the interior angles

Using that formula, a triangle has 3 sides, so

n = 3 , therefore:

= ( 3 - 2 ) × 180°

= 1 × 180°

= 180°

Since the total sum of the interior angles of a triangle all have to add up to 180°, you can create the following equation and solve:

34° + 61° + x = 180°

Solve for x.
