The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is 80% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 100% pure fruit juice. The company is attempting to produce a fruit drink that contains 95% pure fruit juice. How many pints of each of the two existing types of drink must be used to make 220 pints of a mixture that is 95% pure fruit juice?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

55 from un-pure and 165 from pure

Step-by-step explanation:

to get 220 pints with 95% purity you need a mixture of 209 parts to 11 parts (220 *0.95 and 220 * 0.05)

we call the un-pure mixture a and the pure mixture b

all un-pure parts come from a and b in the following ratios

11 = 0.2a + 0b (each pint of mixture a adds 0.2 pints of unpure stuff and each pint of b adds no unpure stuff)

which we can then solve as:

a = 55

all pure parts come from a and b in the following rations

209 = 0.8a + 1b (each pint of mixture a adds 0.8 pints of pure stuff and each pint of b adds a full pint of the pure stuff)

now we can replace a with 55 (from above)

209 = 44 + b,  and solve to

b = 165

now to double check

55 * (0.8x + 0.2y) + 165x would give you

44x + 11y + 165x, which is

11x + 209y and if you then check the ratio

209 / (209+11) = 0.95 again

Answer 2

There will be 55 pints and of un-pure and 165 pints of pure fruit drinks.

What is an expression?

The mathematical expression combines numerical variables and operations denoted by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division signs.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Answer:

1/2 < x < 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify then put everything on one side: 16x -4x^2 -7 > 0

Then use the quadratic formula to factor and find out x.

For a quadratic equation in the form of ax^2 + bx + c = 0, use this formula:

X (1,2) = (-b ± √(b^2 -4ac))/2a

(The X (1,2) part means that there are 2 solutions for x)

In this case, a is -4, b is 16, and c is -7. By using this formula, you get that x=1/2, x=7/2

Select whether each equation has no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions. No Solution One Solution Infinitely Many Solutions

so basically the cosine of an angle is the side adjacent to it, divided by the hypotenuse. the sine is the side opposite to that angle divided by the hypotenuse, and the tangent is the side opposite to that angle divided by the side adjacent to it.

in this case we are given the angle and the side opposite to it which is 10, and we are also given the hypotenuse of 39.

what trig function deals with opposite and hypotenuse?

the answer is sine

so we would find the sine of that angle which equals to opposite over hypotenuse:

sin(angle) = 10/39

but, they are asking for the inverse trig function. the inverse of sine is arcsin.

so :

arcsin(10/39) = angle

in a calculator, this would be equal to about 14.857 which is closest to 15.

one week gas was 1.25 per gallon the next week gas was 1.50 per GALLON by what percentage did the price increase

Answers

Answer:

Therefore, the price increased by 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial price = 1.25

Final price = 1.50

so price increased = 1.50 - 1.25

= 0.25

so,

price increased% = (0.25/1.25) × 100%

= 0.2 × 100%

= 20%

Felicia wants to build a kite with the shape shown. If AC is 60 cm, how many centimeters are in the length of BD?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying tangent rule in the given right triangle AOB,

tan(30°) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{BO}{OA}[/tex]

[tex]OA=BO(\sqrt{3})[/tex]

By applying tangent rule in the given right triangle BOC,

tan(60°) = [tex]\frac{OC}{BO}[/tex]

OC = BO(√3)

OA + OC = AC

[tex]BO(\sqrt{3})+BO(\sqrt{3}) =60[/tex]

2√3(BO) = 60

BO = 10√3

OC = BO(√3)

OC = (10√3)(√3)

OC = 30

By applying tangent rule in right triangle DOC,

tan(60°) = [tex]\frac{OD}{OC}[/tex]

OD = OC(√3)

OD = 30√3

Since, BD = BO + OD

BD = 10√3 + 30√3

BD = 40√3

The price of an item increased by 25 percent. if the price of the item after the increase is 2.00. What was the original price? (Show your work)

A. 1.50

B. 1.60

C. 1.75

D. 2.50

E. 3.20

Answers

Let the original price = x

From X to get the new price you multiply by 1 + the percent of the increase which is 25%

1,25X = 2.00

Divide both sides by 1.25:

X = 1.60

The original price was B. 1.60

Answer:

x=1.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

We increase by 25%

x+ .25x = new price

1.25x = 200

Divide each side by 1.25

x = 2.00/1.25

x=1.60

find the missing side. Round it to the nearest tenth.​

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - A.(112.86, 127.14)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

mean = $120

sd = $17.50

n = 40

Solution:

Confidence interval for a populationcan be express as mean +/- margin of error (E)

degree of freedom = n-1 = 40-1 = 39

confidence level (C) = 99% = 0.01

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 = 99%

 by margin of error E = t×sd/√n = 2.58*17.50/√40

= 2.58*2.76

= 7.138 or 7.14

then the lower limit of mean = mean - E = 120 - 7.14 = $112.86

and, the upper limit of population mean = mean + E = 120 + 7.14 = $127.14

When 3 liters of oil are removed from an upright cylindrical can, the level falls by 10cm. Find the radius of the can

Answers

Answer:

9.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder can be gotten with this formula

V=πr2h

h = height of the oil.

We were told that 3 litres of oil was removed, then, there is a falling in the level of oil by 10 cm, hence the height of the oil is now

h° =( h) - (0.1)

Then the new volume can be calculated as

V°= V - (3×10^-3)

But

volume= (π r2h°)

Then substitute we have

πr2h - 0.003 = π r2 (h-0.1)

If we open the bracket we have

0.003 = (πr2 ×0.1)

πr2=0.003/0.1

Then r=√ (0.03/0.1π)

=9.8 cm

Note that 1L = 10-3 m3

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people who left the store = 14

Number of people who entered the store = 10

Again,

Number of people who left the store = 13

Number of people who entered the store = 5

Total people who left the store = 14 + 13

= 27 people

Total people who entered the store = 10 + 5

= 15 people

Number of people remaining in the store = Total people who entered the store - Total people who left the store

= 15 - 27

= -12

This means there is a net decrease in the number of people in Carmen's Computer Store
