Answer:
Initially, we had:
100 grams of a mixture that is 80% seed, (or 0.8 in decimal form)
This means that the quotient between the mass of seeds and the total mass of the mixture is equal to 0.8
Then the mass of seeds, x, can be calculated as:
x/100g = 0.8
x = 0.8*100g
x = 80g
We also have another mixture, that is 5% seed (or 0.05 in decimal form)
This means that in X grams of this mixture, there will be y grams of seeds, such that:
y/X = 0.05
y = 0.05*X grams
Now, we want to create a mixture that is 40% seeds (or 0.4 in decimal form).
Let's do this.
If we add X grams of the 5% mixture, the total mass will be:
M = 100g + X.
The total mass of seeds will be:
m = 80g + X*0.05
and we want that the quotient between the mass of seeds and the total mass to be exactly 0.4
m/M = 0.4
(80g + X*0.05)/(100g + X) = 0.4
Let's solve this for X.
(80g + X*0.05) = 0.4*(100g + X)
80g + X*0.05 = 40g + X*0.4
80g - 40g = X*0.4 - X*0.05
40g = X*0.35
40g/0.35 = X = 114.2g
If we want the mixture to be exactly 40% seeds, we need to add 114.2g of the 5% mixture. (We already can see that Tom is closer to the exact result than Sally)
If we add 114g, like Tom wants, we will have:
M = 100g + 114g = 214g
m = 80g + 0.05*114g = 85.7g
m/M = 85.7g/214g = 0.4005
This is a really good aproximation, if we write this in percentage form this would be:
0.4005*100% = 40.05%

1 - 3x = 3x + 1 solve for x
Answer: x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
1 - 3x = 3x + 1
then add 3x on both sides
1 = 6x + 1
then subtract 1 on both sides
0 = 6x
then divide by 6 on both sides
0 = x
so x = 0
Answer:
x would be unknown bc there wouldnt be an answer since
1-3x=3x+1
if we take away 1 forom both sides were left with -3x=3x and it would be 6x if we combined them which can be possible bc it would be nothing = 6x if that makes sense

K = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
K represents the y-intercept, which is where the line crosses the y axis. We can see from the y = -4x -2, that -2 is the y-intercept, because in y = mx + b, b is the y -intercept.

There were 24 boys and 20 girls in a chess club last year. This year
the number of boys increased by 25% but the number of girls
decreased by 10%.
Find the overall percent change in membership of the club.
10
Answer:
35%
Step-by-step explanation:
If you take the amount of percent the girls decreased, and the amount the boys increased in percentages, you will have your answer when just adding them together. So the answer is 35% or as in 6 boys joined and 2 girls left. So that gives you a total of 8 joining or leaving the chess club or 35% difference.

Which of the following is a solution to the equation 3/4x - 12 = -18?
4.5
-22.5
-40
-8
Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4x=-18+12
x=-6×4/3
x=-8
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{3}{4} x - 12 = - 18[/tex]
i) multiply both sides of equation with 4
[tex] 4(\frac{3}{4} x - 12) = 4( - 18)[/tex]
[tex](4 \times \frac{3}{4} x) + (4 \times ( - 12)) = - 72[/tex]
[tex]3x - 48 = - 72[/tex]
ii) move -48 to the right-hand side and change its sign
[tex]3x = - 72 + 48[/tex]
iii) calculate the sum
[tex]3x = - 24[/tex]
iv) divide both sides of equation with 3
[tex] \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{ - 24}{3} [/tex]
[tex]x = - 8[/tex]

the length of a rectangle is 4cm more than double its width. the perimeter of the rectangle is 116cm. Find the length and the width of the rectangle
Answer:
l = 31 cm
w = 27 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
l = w + 4
p = 2l + 2w
p = 2(w+4) + 2w
116 = 2(w+4) + 2w
116 = 2w + 8 + 2w
116 = 4w + 8
108 = 4w
27 = w
l = w + 4
l = 27 + 4

Use the quadratic formula to find both solutions to the quadratic equation
given below.
2x²+x-1=0
Answer:
x=1/2 or x=−1
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to the quadratic equation is x = -1 or 1/2
What is Quadratic Equation?A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax² + bx + c=0. with a ≠ 0. Because it is a second-order polynomial equation, the fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that it has at least one solution. The solution may be real or complex.
The roots of the quadratic equations are
x = [ -b ± √ ( b² - 4ac ) ] / ( 2a )
where ( b² - 4ac ) is the discriminant
when ( b² - 4ac ) is positive, we get two real solutions
when discriminant is zero we get just one real solution (both answers are the same)
when discriminant is negative we get a pair of complex solutions
Given data ,
Let the quadratic equation be represented as A
Now , the value of A is
2x² + x - 1 = 0 be equation (1)
And , roots of the quadratic equations are
x = [ -b ± √ ( b² - 4ac ) ] / ( 2a )
On simplifying , we get
x = [ -1 ± √ ( 1 )² - ( 4 ) ( 2 ) ( -1 ) ] / 4
x = [ -1 ± √ ( 1 + 8 ) ] / 4
x = [ -1 ± 3 ] / 4
So , the two values of x are
x = ( -1 - 3 ) / 4
x = -1
And , x = ( -1 + 3 ) / 4
x = 1/2
Therefore , the values of x are -1 or 1/2 respectively
Hence , the roots of the quadratic equation are -1 or 1/2 respectively

Answer!
A car travels from A to B at a speed of 30 mph then returns, using the same road, from B to A at a speed of 65 mph. What is the average speed for the round trip?
Answer:
41 mphStep-by-step explanation:
s₁ = s₂ = x {the distance from A to B}
s = s₁ + s₂ = x + x = 2x {the distance of the round trip}
t = t₁ + t₂ {the time of the round trip}
v₁ = 30 mph
v₂ = 65 mph
t₁ = s₁/v₁ = x/30 h {the time of trip from A to B}
t₂ = s₂/v₂ = x/65 h {the time of trip from B to A}
The average speed:
[tex]v=\dfrac st=\dfrac{2x}{\frac x{30}+\frac x {65}}=\dfrac{2x}{x(\frac 1{30}+\frac1 {65})}=\dfrac{2}{\frac{13}{390}+\frac6{390}}=2\cdot\frac{390}{19}=41.05263...\approx41[/tex]

Solve for x: 10(x + 1) = 2x - 7
Answer:Simplifying
x = -2.125
Step-by-step explanation:Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -10 + 8x = -7 + -10
Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + 8x = -7 + -10
8x = -7 + -10
Combine like terms: -7 + -10 = -17
8x = -17
Divide each side by '8'.
x = -2.125
Simplifying
x = -2.125

Consider the following system of equations
-2x+5y=19
Y=-5/6x-1/6
Use this graph of the system to approximate its solution
A. (13/4,-5/2)
B. (-5/2,13/4)
C. (-13/4,5/2)
D.) (5/2,-13/4)
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the system of equations:
[tex]\displaystyle -2x+5y=19 \\\\ y=-\frac{5}{6}x-\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
And we want to use the graph to approximate the solution to the system.
Remember that, graphically, the solution to a system of equations is where the two graphs intersect.
We can see that the point at which the two lines intersect is in QII.
Hence, x is negative and y is positive.
The only choices that satisfies these conditions are B or C.
However, for B, -5/2 is -2.5. As we can see from the graph, the x-coordinate of the point of intersection is less than -3.
Hence, the only choice left is C. -13/4 also is -3.25, fulfilling our condition.
So, our final answer is C.
1: A man owns 50 shares of stock worth $30 each. The corporation declared a dividend of 6% payable in stock. How many shares did he then own?
Answer:
53 shares
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation for how many SHARES did he then own
Using this formula
Numbers of shares=[ (Dividend percentage payable in stock ×Shares of stock)+Shares of stock]
Let plug in the formula
Numbers of shares= [(.06 x 50 shares)+50 shares]
Numbers of shares= 3 + 50 shares
Numbers of shares = 53 shares
Therefore How many shares did he then own is 53 shares
