15. Before oil is added to a certain road surface material, the other ingredients are mixed. The mixture contains
45% 3/4 inch stone and 32% % inch stone. The balance of the mixture is made up of sand. If the mixture weighs
15,000 pounds before the oil is added, how many pounds of each ingredient are in the mixture?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

sand = 3450 pounds

3/4 inch stones =6750 pounds

1 inch stones =4800 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mixture composition is :

45% three-quarter inch stones

32% inch stones and

sand for balance

The percent here is by mass of material used.

Weight of mixture is 15,000 pounds before oil addition.

Use the percent by weight for the two types of stones and calculate real values in pounds

Formula to apply is:

Mass percent = (mass of a material/ total mass of mixture) * 100

For 3/4 inch stones it will be:

[tex]0.45= \frac{x}{15000} *100\\\\0.45=\frac{x}{150} \\0.45*150=x\\x=6750[/tex]

The 3/4 inch stones weigh 6750 pounds

The 1 inch stones will be

[tex]32/100 * 15000 =4800[/tex]

The 1 inch stones weigh = 4800 pounds

Total for the two items : 4800+6750 =11550 pounds

The sand used weighs : 15000 - 11550 = 3450 pounds

x= -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x+11=x+4

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

2x+11−x=x+4−x

x+11=4

Step 3: Subtract 11 from both sides.

Can some tell me what does x equal?

Answers

2x-7 i think i rlly hope it’s right

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

A straight line has an angle of 180 degrees. To solve for x we can add all the given angles and set them equal to 180.

[tex]180= 5x-1+9x+8+2x+13[/tex]

Then combine all the common factors

[tex]180=16x+20[/tex]

And then you can solve for x

[tex]180= 16x+20\\160=16x\\10=x[/tex]

To check if x is correct you can plug in 10 to each equation. If all the equations add up to 180, then x is correct

[tex]5(10)-1= 49\\9(10)+8= 98\\2(10)+13= 33\\\\49+98+33=180[/tex]

Algebraically solve the following system of equations.
(x - 2)2 + (y - 3)2 = 16
x + y - 1 = 0

Answers

The solutions to the system of equations are (2, -1) and (-2,3)

How to solve the system of equations?

The equations are given as:

[tex](x - 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 16[/tex]

x  + y - 1 = 0

Make y the subject in x  + y - 1 = 0

y = 1 - x

Substitute y = 1 - x in [tex](x - 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 16[/tex]

[tex](x - 2)^2 + (1 - x - 3)^2 = 16[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex](x - 2)^2 + (-x - 2)^2 = 16[/tex]

Expand the equations

[tex]x^2 - 4x + 4 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 16[/tex]

Evaluate the like terms

[tex]2x^2 + 8 = 16[/tex]

Subtract 8 from both sides

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

Divide by 2

[tex]x^2 = 4[/tex]

Take the square roots of both sides

x = ±2

Substitute x = ±2 in y = 1 - x

y = 1 - 2 = -1

y = 1 + 2 = 3

Hence, the solutions to the system of equations are (2, -1) and (-2,3)

Two points on the graph of the linear function f are (0,5) and (3,8). Write a function g whose graph is a reflection in the x-axis of the graph of f.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As first step we must obtain the equation of the line. According to Analytical Geometry, we can get a equation of the line by knowing two different points. A linear function is represented by the following expression:

[tex]y = m\cdot x + b[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] - Independent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]y[/tex] - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]m[/tex] - Slope, dimensionless.

[tex]b[/tex] - y-Intercept, dimensionless.

If we know that [tex](x_{1}, y_{1}) = (0, 5)[/tex] and [tex](x_{2}, y_{2}) = (3, 8)[/tex], the following system of linear equations is formed:

[tex]5 = 0\cdot m + b[/tex]

[tex]b = 5[/tex] (Eq. 1)

[tex]8 = 3\cdot m + b[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot m + b = 8[/tex] (Eq. 2)

From (Eq. 1) in (Eq. 2) we get the value of [tex]m[/tex]:

[tex]3\cdot m + 5 = 8[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot m = 3[/tex]

[tex]m = 1[/tex]

The equation of the line that contains the points (0, 5) and (3, 8) is [tex]f(x) = x + 5[/tex].

As next step we must apply a reflection in the x-axis, whose operation is defined as follows:

[tex](x', y') \longrightarrow (x, -y)[/tex]

That is:

[tex]x' = x[/tex]

[tex]y' = -y[/tex]

Then, the function [tex]g(x)[/tex] is [tex]g(x) = -x-5[/tex]. We plot each function and include the result in the attachment below.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

just took test today hope this help mark me as brailist and add me

Answer:

16 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y = -27x + 577[/tex]

Since y represents the amount of money left in her account, we can replace it with $145 to solve for x (number of weeks)

[tex]145=-27x+577[/tex]

Switch sides:

[tex]-27x+577=145[/tex]

Subtract 577 from both sides:

[tex]-27x+577-577=145-577\\[/tex]

[tex]-27x=-432[/tex]

Divide both sides by -27:

[tex]\frac{-27x}{-27}=\frac{-432}{-27}[/tex]

[tex]x=16[/tex]

After 16 weeks, Alma will have $145 left in her account.

what expression is equivalent to 3a - 2a x 4a +6a

Answers

Answer:

a (9 - 8 a x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

3 a - 2 a x×4 a + 6 a

-2 a x×4 a = -2 a^2 x×4:

3 a + -2 a^2 x×4 + 6 a

-2×4 = -8:

3 a + -8 a^2 x + 6 a

Grouping like terms, 3 a - 8 a^2 x + 6 a = -8 a^2 x + (3 a + 6 a):

-8 a^2 x + (3 a + 6 a)

3 a + 6 a = 9 a:

-8 a^2 x + 9 a

Factor a out of -8 a^2 x + 9 a:

Answer: a (9 - 8 a x)

The expression that is equivalent to [tex]3a - 2ax \times 4a +6a[/tex] is: [tex]\mathbf{a(9 - 8ax)}[/tex]

Given the expression:

[tex]3a - 2ax \times 4a +6a[/tex]

To find an expression that is equivalent to the above expression, we will need to simplify the expression.

Multiply

[tex]3a - 2ax \times 4a + 6a\\\\3a - 8a^2x + 6a[/tex]

Add like terms together

[tex]3a + 6a - 8a^2x\\\\9a - 8a^2x[/tex]

Simplify the expression further by factoring out

[tex]a(9 - 8ax)[/tex]

Therefore, the expression that is equivalent to [tex]3a - 2a \times 4a +6a[/tex] is [tex]\mathbf{a(9 - 8ax)}[/tex]
