1) Set up, but do not solve, a system of equations for the following application: A nurse mixes a 100% saline solution with a 20% saline solution to produce 160 milliliters of a 25% saline solution. How much of the 100% saline solution and how much of the 20% saline solution were used?

Answers

Answer 1

The systems of the equations for the word problem can be expressed as:

x + y = 500              --- (1)100x + 20y = 4000  --- (2)

What is a system of equations?

The system of equations is a set of simultaneous equations that comprises two or more equations expressed in algebraic terms.

From the given information, we are to determine two quantities

i.e.

For 100% saline solution (x) andFor 20% saline solution  (y)

So, 100% and 20% of saline solution produce 160 millimeters.

x + y = 160

Also, the combination of 100% and 20% of saline solution give an average of 25%.

The average now = sum of numbers/ the total numbers

25% = sum of numbers/160

sum of numbers = 25% (160)

Therefore, we can equate it to the mixture carried out by the nurse.

i.e.

25% (160) = 100%(x) + 20%(y)

100x + 20y = 4000

Therefore, the systems of the equations are:

x + y = 500              --- (1)

100x + 20y = 4000  --- (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 43

Let cheese pizza be c and mushroom pizza be m3c + 4m = 12.503c + 2m = 8.50

Subtract Equation 2 from Equation 1.

3c + 4m - 3c - 2m = 12.50 - 8.502m = 4.00m = $2.00(2) $2.00

Answer:

(2)  $2.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack's order

3 slices of cheese pizza and 4 slices of mushroom pizza = $12.50

Grace's order

3 slices of cheese pizza and 2 slices of mushroom pizza = $8.50

The difference between the two orders is 2 slices of mushroom pizza.

The difference between the cost of the two orders is:

$12.50 - $8.50 = $4.00

Therefore, 2 slices of mushroom pizza costs $4.00

So the cost of 1 slice of mushroom pizza is:

$4.00 ÷ 2 = $2.00

=======================================================

Part (a)

Let's find the distance from point D to point E.

In other words, this will compute the length of segment DE.

[tex]D = (x_1,y_1) = (0,-6) \text{ and } E = (x_2, y_2) = (3,1)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-3)^2 + (-6-1)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + (-7)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{9 + 49}\\\\d = \sqrt{58}\\\\d \approx 7.6158\\\\[/tex]

Segment DE is roughly 7.6158 units long.

Let's repeat these steps to find the length of segment EF.

[tex]E = (x_1,y_1) = (3,1) \text{ and } F = (x_2, y_2) = (-2,1)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(3-(-2))^2 + (1-1)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(3+2)^2 + (1-1)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(5)^2 + (0)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{25 + 0}\\\\d = \sqrt{25}\\\\d = 5\\\\[/tex]

Segment EF is exactly 5 units long.

Lastly, we'll compute the length of segment FD.

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (-2,1) \text{ and } (x_2, y_2) = (0,-6)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-2-0)^2 + (1-(-6))^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-2-0)^2 + (1+6)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (7)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{4 + 49}\\\\d = \sqrt{53}\\\\d \approx 7.2801\\\\[/tex]

Segment FD is about 7.2801 units long.

This is close to the length of DE, but not quite.

To recap, we found these segment lengths:

DE = 7.6158 (approximate)EF = 5 (exact)FD = 7.2801 (approximate)

As you can see, all three sides are different lengths. Therefore, triangle DEF is scalene.

----------------------------------

For part (b), follow the same template as part (a).

I'll be skipping the steps.

This is what you should get for the lengths of triangle TRI

segment TR = 6.0828 (approximate)segment RI = 2 (exact)segment IT = 6.0828 (approximate)

Segments TR and IT are the same length (both exactly [tex]\sqrt{37}[/tex] units long), which means triangle TRI is isosceles.

-----------------------------------

For part (c), I'll also be skipping steps.

Here are the lengths you should find

JK = 4.1231 (approximate)KL = 8.9443 (approximate)LJ = 10.6301 (approximate)

All three lengths are different, making this triangle scalene.

What is a polygon?

The polygon is a 2D geometry that has a finite number of sides. And all the sides of the polygon are straight lines connected to each other side by side.

A regular pentagon has an apothem measuring 3 cm and a perimeter of 21.8 cm.

Then the side length of the pentagon will be

5 x Side length = 21.8 cm

     Side length = 4.36 cm

Then the area of the pentagon, rounded to the nearest tenth will be

Area of pentagon = 5 x area of triangle

Area of pentagon = 5 x 1/2 x 4.36 x 3

Area of pentagon = 32.7 square cm

There were 14 boys at Mina's disco for her birthday.

What is a ratio?

A ratio is a quantitative value that shows the number of times a certain value is in another value.

The number of boys at the disco can be calculated as shown below:

It is given that for every 2 boys at the disco, there were 3 girls. This means that the ratio of boys to girls at the disco is 2:3.

Let the proportionality constant be x.

Therefore total boys and girls are 2x and 3x respectively.

There are 35 kids at the disco. This means that the number of boys plus girls is 35. It can be written as shown below:

2x + 3x = 35

⇒ x = 35/5

⇒ x = 7

Total number of boys = 2x

= 2 * 7

= 14 boys

Therefore the total number of boys at the disco is 14.

a regular hexagon has 18 sides calculate the size of each interior

Answers

Answer:

[tex]160[/tex] °

Step-by-step explanation:

An alternative method is to use the exterior angle.

the sum of the exterior angles is ALWAYS 360 °

So you can find the size of the exterior angles of a regular polygon quite easily:

If there are 18 sides ( n = 18 ) , then each exterior angle is:

[tex]\frac{360}{n} =\frac{360}{18} = 20[/tex]°

The sum of the exterior and interior angles is 180° because they are adjacent angles on a straight line.

∴ each interior angle is 180° - 20° = 160°

The surface area of this solid is:

b. 107

Step-by-step explanation:

To understand this answer we need to analyze it. First, we have different geometric figures composing the solid. A pyramid and a rectangular prism. We need to obtain the surface, not the volume so we need to obtain the area of all the figures composing the pyramid and the prism without the hidden part of the pyramid base. We need to obtain the following areas:

2 rectangles with the following measures= W=2 L= 8

1 rectangle with the following measures= W=3 L=8

1 rectangle with the following measures= W=3 L 5

2 rectangles with the following measures= W=2 L=3

4 triangles with the following measures= B=3 H=4

Following the formula for the rectangles W x L we obtain a total area for them of 83 square meters.

Following the formula for the triangles b x h / 2 we obtain the following area: 24 square meters. Then we add both and obtain 107 square meters.

The surface area of this solid is 107.

Probability is the likelihood of an event to occur. The probability of the event P(event) = number of required outcomes/total number of outcomes

Probability of independent events

If we have two independent event sa and b that have probabilities of occuring P(a) and P(b) respectively, the probability P(a and b) = P(a) × P(b)

Answers

The system of equations that we need to solve is:

x + y = 150y = 2x + 3

And the solution is x = 49 and y = 101.

How to solve the system of equations?

Let's define the variables:

x = number of CDs of rock music.y = number of CDs of alternative music.

We know that the total number of CDs is 150, then:

x + y = 150

And we know that:

y = 2x + 3

Then the two equations that represent the information (and conform a system of equations) are:

x + y = 150

y = 2x + 3

b) The graphs of the two equations can be seen below.

c) To find the solution, we just need to see where the graphs intercept.

We can see that the intercept is (49, 101), this means that:
