A chef is going to use a mixture of two brands of Italian dressing. The first brand contains 8% vinegar, and the second brand contains 13% vinegar. The chef wants to make 270 milliliters of a dressing that is 9% vinegar. How much of each brand should she use

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Amount of 8% vinegar = 216 mL

Amount of 13% vinegar = 54 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

First, of all, let x be the amount of 8% vinegar used

Since, the scientist needs 270 mL of vinegar, then;

Let 270 - x be the amount of 13% vinegar used

Now, we are told that she needs 270 mL of a 9% vinegar.

This means that;

8%x + 13%(270 - x) = 9%(270)

Simplifying this gives;

0.08x + 0.13(270 - x) = 0.09 × 270

Expanding the bracket gives;

0.08x + 35.1 - 0.13x = 24.3

0.13x - 0.08x = 35.1 - 24.3

0.05x = 10.8

x = 10.8/0.05

x = 216 mL

Thus, she will need to use 216 mL of the 8% vinegar.

Since 270 - x is the amount of 13% vinegar used , then;

the amount of 13% vinegar = 270 - 216 = 54 mL

The elevation of lake sam rayburn is 164 above mean sea level during the summer if it does not rain the elevation of the lake decreases by 0.5 feet each week

Answers

Answer:

I guess that you want to model the elevation of Lake Sam Rayburn.

During the summer, it is 165 ft above the sea level (the sea level is our position 0ft).

If it does not rain, the elevation of the lake decreases by 0.5ft each week.

So if we assume that there is no rain, we can write the elevation fo the lake as a linear relationship with slope equal to -0.5ft and y-intercept equal to 165ft.

L(w) = 165ft - 0.5ft*w

Where w is the number of weeks without rain, if we have 0 weeks without rain, then the level of the lake remains constant at 165ft above sea level,

L(0) = 165ft - 0.

Jenny explained to Robert that only rational numbers are considered as a set of real numbers. Robert disagreed stating that irrational numbers could also be a set of real numbers explain which student is correct

Answers

Answer: Robert is correct, irrational numbers are part of real numbers.

Explanation:

In mathematics, numbers are classified into different groups or seats. In the case of real numbers, these are a broad category that includes all numbers that can be represented on a line. Moreover, this category includes smaller categories such as rational numbers, for example, 15, 2.4 or 6/2 that can be represented as fractions, as well as, irrational numbers such as [tex]\pi[/tex] that cannot be fractions. In this context, Jenny is incorrect and Robert is correct because irrational numbers are also real numbers.

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 21 ft wide and 34 ft long. She wants to leave
a uniform strip of floor around the rug. She can afford to buy 338 square feet of carpeting. What
dimensions should the rug have?

Answers

Answer:

Dimensions of the rug = 13 ft × 26 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the room = 21 ft × 34 ft

Area of the room = 21 × 34 = 714 ft²

Cynthia wants to leave a uniform strip of floor around the rug.

Let the width of the rug = x ft

Then the dimensions of the rug will be = (21- 2x)ft × (34 - 2x)ft

Area of the rug = (21 - 2x)×(34 - 2x) square feet

338 = (21 - 2x)×(34 - 2x)

338 = 714 - 68x - 42x + 4x²

4x² - 110x + 714 - 338 = 0

4x² - 110x + 376 = 0

2x² - 55x + 188 = 0

2x² - 47x - 8x + 188 = 0

x(2x - 47) - 8(x - 47) = 0  

(x - 4)(2x - 47) = 0

x = 4, [tex]\frac{47}{2}[/tex]

For x = 23.5 area of the rug will be negative.

Therefore, x = 4 ft will be the width of the rug.

Dimensions of the rug will be 13 ft × 26 ft

Find the complement and supplement of the angle with measure 40 degrees

Answers

Answer:

The complement is 50 and the supplement is 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add up to 90. Supplementary angles add up to 180. We simply need to subtract to find the difference to fill the gap.

90-40=50

180-40=140

The complement is 50 and the supplement is 140

Answer:

complement angle to 40 degrees is 50 and the supplement angle to 40 degrees is 140

Step-by-step explanation:

complement angle to 40 degrees is 90 - 40 = 50 degrees

Supplement angle to 40 degrees is 180 - 40 = 140 degrees.

The graph represents the equation 2 + 2 = 8. Use this graph to answer questions 6, 7, and 8. PART A) Look at the graph of the equation 2 + 2 = 8. Give its domain and range. PART B) Use algebraic means to show that 2 + 2 = 8 is not a function. Explain your process.

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the graph of:

[tex]x^2+y^2=8[/tex]

As given, the graph is a circle with a radius of 2√2 and a center of (0,0)

Part 1)

The domain of a function is the span of x-values it covers and the range of a function is the span of y-values it covers.

From the graph, we can see that the x-values the graph covers goes from -2√2  to +2√2. The graph includes these values.

Thus, the domain is, in interval notation:

[tex][-2\sqrt2,2\sqrt2][/tex]

From the graph, we can see that the y-values the graph covers also goes from -2√2 to 2√2.

Therefore, like the domain, the range in interval notation is:

[tex][-2\sqrt2,2\sqrt2][/tex]

Part 2:

First of all, we can use the vertical line test to prove that the graph is indeed not a function.

Algebraically, we have to do some more.

First, recall what it means when an equation is not a function. It means that one x maps onto two or more ys.

In other words, to prove that the equation is not a function, we can substitute an x for a value and solve for y.

For instance, let's use 0 for x (and 0 is within the domain). Thus:

[tex]x^2+y^2=8\\(0)^2+y^2=8[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]y^2=8[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides:

[tex]y=\pm\sqrt8\\y=\pm2\sqrt2[/tex]

In other words, when x is 0, y can be either -2√2 or 2√2. So we have two different y-values with the same x-coordinate.

[tex](0,-2\sqrt2)(0,2\sqrt2)[/tex]

Therefore, the equation is not a function.

Determine for each x-value whether it is in the domain of f or not. -

Answer:

-7 is in our domain.

0 is in our domain

7 is not in our domain.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the rational function:

[tex]f(x)=\frac{x}{x-7}[/tex]

The domain restrictions of rational functions are the zeros of the denominator.  In other words, the domain of rational functions are always all real numbers except for the zeros of the denominator.

So, solve for the denominator by setting it to 0:

[tex]x-7=0[/tex]

Add 7 to both sides:

[tex]x=7[/tex]

So, our domain is all real numbers except for 7.

(When x=7, we have 7/0, which is undefined.)

Therefore:

-7 is in our domain.

7 is not in our domain.

While on beach vacation, tasha makes scale drawing of points of intererest between priers on her drawing 2 cm represents 15 MI the priers are 12 cm apart on tashas drawing. What is the actual distnace between 2 priers

Answers

Answer:

Actual distance between the 2 priers = 90 MI

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Scaled drawing to actual dimension = 2 : 15

2 cm represents 15MI

2cm ≡ 15 MI

∴ 1 cm ≡ (15/2) MI

1 cm ≡ 7.5 MI

scaled distance of priers in drawing = 12cm

∴ 12 cm ≡ 7.5 × 12

= 90 MI

∴ Actual distance between the 2 priers = 90 MI

steven traveled for 10 hours at a constant rate of 53 miles per hour. Stephanie traveled at the same distance at a constant rate of 48 miles per hour. How long did it take stephanie to travel the same distance as steven, write an equation to solve.

Answers

Answer:

It took 11.04 hours  by Stephanie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept

distance = speed*time

time = distance/time

_________________________________

Given

for Steven

time  = 10 hours

speed = 53 miles per hour

Distance for steven = 53*10 = 530 miles

_____________________________________

Now ,

as Stephanie also traveled the same distance as steven

Distance = 530 miles

speed = 48 miles per hour

time = 530/48 hour = 11.04 hours

Thus, It took 11.04 hours  by Stephanie.

In other way

since distance traveled by Steven and Stephanie are same

let time taken by Stephanie be x hours

Distance traveled by steven = Distance traveled by Stephanie

53*10 = 48*x

x = 530/48 = 11.04 hours

equation = 53*10 = 48*x

Will mark brainest

Answers

Hello there! :D

Firstly, I want you to understand an important concept. This has something to do with absolute value. So, although distance is a number, it is neither positive nor negative. It does not necessarily involve value. So, what we are looking for today will not have a negative sign in front of it. We are simply looking for distance!

Let's start with ST, because the distance between those is smaller and therefore I can better explain this to you. T is at the point 19.1, and S is at the point 14. We need to find the amount of distance between the two. How do we do that?

Subtraction! In order to find this value we can subtract the smaller number from the larger number.

19.1-14= 5.1

ST is 5.1

Now we can look at the distance between TR. We are actually going to add numbers together! We know that T is 19.1. If we were to put a dot at zzero and measure that distance, it would be 19.1. What is the distance from R to zero? That's right! The same principle is there. If we had a dot at zero and we're measuring from 4, the distance would be 7.5 (even though it is negative on the number line).

So, we can add these numbers together!

19.1+7.5= 26.6

TR is 26.6

A plan for a baseball diamond is drawn in a coordinate plane. The baseball diamond is in the shape of a square with vertices at approximately 0, 04105401 (0-64 and 1-6401 One unit in the coordinate plane representa 1. What is th approximate area of the baseball diamond? Show your work.​

Answers

Answer:

The approximate area, of the baseball diamond is 8192 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The given coordinates of the baseball diamond are;

(0, 64), (64, 0), (0, -64), and (-64, 0)

The length of one unit of the coordinate plane = 1 foot

Therefore, we note that, there are two points with x-coordinate = 0 at which the y-coordinates = 64 and -64

Similarly here are two points with y-coordinate = 0 at which the x-coordinates = 64 and -64

The length of the segment are therefore the vertices of a square as we have;

A(0, 64), B(64, 0), C(0, -64), and D(-64, 0)

∠DBA = ∠DCA = tan⁻¹(64/64) = tan⁻¹(1) = 45°

∠DBA + ∠DCA = ∠ABC = 90°

The shape of the diamond is a square

The length, l of the side of the square is given by the relation;

[tex]l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}}[/tex]

When, (x₁, y₁) = (0, 64), (x₂, y₂) = (64, 0)

We have;

[tex]l = \sqrt{\left (0 -64 \right )^{2}+\left (64-0 \right )^{2}} = 64\cdot \sqrt{2}[/tex]

The

The area, A, of the baseball diamond is therefore;

A = Area of a square = (Length of the side of a square)² = (64·√2)² = 8192 ft²

The area, of the baseball diamond = 8192 ft².

BTW not middle school

Answers

Answer:

274

Step-by-step explanation:

First stop of Caroline = At 36 mile marker

Destination of Caroline = At 353 mile marker

Distance left to be covered = 353 - 36 = 317 miles

Given that Caroline decides to stop at an attraction [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of the way after she stops for gas.

i.e. at a distance [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of 317 miles away from the Gas stop.

[tex]\frac{3}{4} \times 317 = 79.25\times 3 \approx 238\ miles[/tex]

So, Caroline stops at a point which is around 238 miles away from the gas station.

To calculate the Mile marker of her stop, we need to add the mile marker of gas station and the distance of her stop from gas station.

Mile marker location at her stop = 36+238 = 274
