a 20 pound platter of cookies costs $77. the platter is a mix of peanut butter that costs $4 per pound, sugar that costs $3 per pound, and chocolate chip that’s costs $4.50 per pound. there are two more pounds of sugar cookies than peanut butter. how many pounds of sugar cookies are on the platter?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 7 pounds of sugar cookies

X+Y+Z = 20

4x + 3y +4.50z = 77

-x + y + 0z = 2

X+Y+Z = 20                      4x + 3y + 4.50z = 77

-x + y +Oz = 2                   (-x + y + 0z = 2) x 4     (-4x +4y+0z=8)

Add the problems vertically

0x + 2y + z = 22              0x +7y + 4.50 z = 85

Rewrite the problem

2y + z = 22                (Times 7)

7y + 4.50 = 85          (Times -2)

14y +7z = 154

-14y - 9z = -170      

Add Vertically

-2z = -16

divide by -2

z = 8

there are 8 Chocy Chips

if we plug 8 for z in 2y + z = 22      we get y = 7

making 5 be X (Cause X+Y+z = 20)

8 Chocy

7 Sugar

5 Peanut butter

An open box with a volume of 128 cm3 can be made
by cutting a square of the same size from each corner
of a square piece of metal 12 cm on a side and folding
up the edges. What is the length of a side of the square
that is cut from each corner?

Answers

Answer:

sorry hindi amo marunong ng math

The length of the side of the square that is cut from each corner will be 2 cm or 8 cm.

What is volume?

Volume is the scalar quantity of any object that specified occupied space in 3D.

For example, the space in our room is referred to as volume.

Volume has units of cube example meter³,cm³, etc.

The volume of the cuboid = length × height × width.

The volume of the cube = side³.

Suppose the length of the metal square piece is L = 12 cm and the width of the cut is h as shown below,

Volume of the box = (L - 2h)² × h

(12 - 2h)² × h = 128

4h(6 - h)² = 128

h(36 + h² - 12h) = 32

h³ - 12h² + 36h - 32 = 0

(h - 2)(h² - 10h + 16) = 0

(h - 2)(h² - 8h - 2h + 16) = 0

(h - 2)(h(h - 8) - 2(h - 8)) = 0

(h - 2)(h - 2)(h - 8) = 0

h = 2,8

Hence "The length of the side of the square that is cut from each corner will be 2 cm or 8 cm".

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, write in simplest radical form.

Answers

Answer:

third side = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let the third side be x , then

x² + 4² = (2[tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex] )²

x² + 16 = 52 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

x² = 36 ( take square root of both sides )

x = [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex] = 6

The perimeter of the rectangle below is 68 cm. The perimeter of the triangle is 60 cm. Find the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle​

Answers

The right triangle is assumed to be inscribed in the rectangle, such that

hypotenuse is the diagonal of the rectangle.

The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is 26 cm.

Reasons:

Let x and y represent the length of the sides of the rectangle

Whereby the base and height of the right triangle are the same as the

length and width of the rectangle, we have;

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2·x + 2·y = 68

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle x + y = \frac{68}{2} = 34[/tex]

x + y = 34

The base of the right triangle = x

The height of the right triangle = y

By Pythagoras's theorem, the length of the hypotenuse side = √(x² + y²)

Therefore; Perimeter of the right triangle = x + y + √(x² + y²) = 60

Which gives;

√(x² + y²) = 60 - (x + y) = 60 - 34 = 26

The length of the hypotenuse side, √(x² + y²) = 26 cm

make y the subject of the formula
x=13(t-4y) over y

Answers

Answer:

make y the subject of the formula

x=13(t-4y)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+c  

⟹(y)−c=(mx+c)−c  

⟹y−c=mx+(+c−c)  

⟹y−c=mx+0  

⟹y−c=mx  

⟹mx=y−c  

⟹mx×(1m)=(y−c)×(1m)  

⟹x×(mm)=1m(y−c)  

⟹x×1=1m(y−c)  

⟹x=1m(y−c)

The subject of the formula for y is y = 13t / x(1 + 52/x).

What is the equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

We have been given the equation as:

x = 13(t - 4y) / y

We have to make y the subject of the formula

x = 13(t - 4y) / y

Cross multiplication to get,

y = 13(t - 4y) / x

y = (13t - 52y) / x

y = 13t / x - 52y / x

Now group the y terms together and we get

y + 52y / x = 13t / x

The factor out the y to get

y(1 + 52/x) = 13t / x

y = 13t / x(1 + 52/x)

Therefore, the subject of the formula for y is y = 13t / x(1 + 52/x).
