18.92 pounds of peanut and 25.08 pounds of nut shack should be used to make the mixture
Explanation:the cost per pound for the nut shack = $6.80
let the amount of pounds of nut shack used in the mixture = n
the cost per pound for the peanuts = $4.80
let the amount of pounds for the peanuts used in the mixture = p
We want to obtain 44 pounds of mixture which sells for $5.94 per pound
sum of pounds mixture = 44
amount of pounds of nut shack used in the mixture + amount of pounds for the peanuts used in the mixture = 44
[tex]n+p=44\text{ }....\mleft(1\mright)[/tex]cost per pound for the nut shack (amount used) + cost per pound for the peanuts (amount used) = cost per pound of the mixture (amount of mixture)
6.80(n) + 4.80(p) = 5.94(44)
[tex]6.8n+4.8p=261.36\text{ }\ldots\mleft(2\mright)[/tex]using substitution method:
from equation 1, we can make n the subject of formula
n = 44 - p
substitute for n in equation (2):
[tex]\begin{gathered} 6.8(44\text{ - p) + 4.8p = 261.36} \\ 299.2\text{ - 6.8p + 4.8p = 261.3}6 \\ 299.2\text{ - 2p = 261.3}6 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} collect\text{ like terms:} \\ 299.2\text{ - 261.36 - 2p = 0} \\ \text{add 2p to both sides:} \\ 37.84\text{ = 2p} \\ \text{divide both sides by 2:} \\ \frac{37.84}{2}\text{ = p} \\ p\text{ = 18.9}2 \end{gathered}[/tex]substitute for p in equation 1:

Graph the solution to this system of inequalities in the coordinate plane.
3y>2x + 122x + y ≤ -5Having trouble rewriting in form. Graphing once in form okay.
Explanation
We are given the following system of inequalities:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3y>2x+12 \\ 2x+y\leqslant-5 \end{gathered}[/tex]We are required to graph the given system of inequalities.
This is achieved thus:
- First, we determine two coordinates from the given inequalities:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3y>2x+12 \\ \text{ Suppose }3y=2x+12 \\ \text{ Let x = 0} \\ 3y=12 \\ y=4 \\ Coordinate:(0,4) \\ \\ \text{Suppose }3y=2x+12 \\ \text{ Let y = 0} \\ 0=2x+12 \\ 2x=-12 \\ x=-6 \\ Coordinate:(-6,0) \end{gathered}[/tex]- Now, we plot the points on a graph. Since the inequality is "strictly greater than", the line drawn will be broken. The graph is shown below:
- Using the second inequality, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x+y\leqslant-5 \\ \text{ Suppose }2x+y=-5 \\ \text{ Let y = 0} \\ 2x=-5 \\ x=-2.5 \\ Coordinate:(-2.5,0) \\ \\ \text{Suppose }2x+y=-5 \\ \text{ Let x = 0} \\ y=-5 \\ Coordinate:(0,-5) \end{gathered}[/tex]The graph becomes:
Combining both graphs, we have the solution to be:
The solution is the intersection of both graphs as indicated above.

Answer:
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) m = 15/6 m = 2.5Step-by-step explanation:
Formula we use,
→ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Then the required slope is,
→ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
→ m = (79 - 64)/(9 - 3)
→ m = 15/6
→ [ m = 2.5 ]
Hence, the slope is 2.5.
a figure has vertices (-13,13), (26,52), (39,39) what would the new coordinates of the vertices to the nearest tenth if the image were reduced by a scale factor of 0.77 with the origin as the center of dilation
Explanation
Given that the figure has vertices (-13,13), (26,52), (39,39), to reduce the image by a scale factor of 0.77 with the origin as the center of dilation, we will multiply the x and y coordinates by the scale factors.
is the least common denominator of two fractions always greater than the denominators of the fractions
The least common denominator of two fractions is not always greater than the denominators of each fraction because sometimes the least common denominator is equal to the greater denominator. For example, if we have the fractions
[tex]\frac{4}{5}-\frac{1}{5}[/tex]In this case, since you have equal denominators, the least common factor would be 5, not greater than 5.
Another example could be
[tex]4+\frac{2}{9}[/tex]In this case, the least common denominator is 9, not greater than 9.
Therefore, the least common denominator is not always greater than the denominator of the fractions.Instructions: Find the missing side of the triangle. tion 24 x 7 2 =

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=-\frac{24}{5} \\ \\ x+y=\frac{16}{17} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, let's solve each equation for y to see them as a pair of line equations:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=-x-\frac{24}{5}_{} \\ \\ y=-x+\frac{16}{17} \end{gathered}[/tex]Notice that this lines have the same slope. Therefore, they're parallel and do not intercept.

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2\times-\frac{1}{2}x=2\times6 \\ -1x=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]Divide both sides by -1
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-1x}{-1}=\frac{12}{-1} \\ x=-12 \end{gathered}[/tex]From the solution, we can conclude that the above equation is true when the value of x = -12.

Tomas is leaving a tip of 18% of his original bill. If the amount of the tip is $2.34, which of the following equations can be used to find the amount of his original bill?0.18b = 2.34b - 0.18 = 2.342.34 x 0.18 = bb/2.34 = 0.18
Answer
0.18b = 2.34
Step-by-step explanation
Let's call b to the bill
The tip is 18% of the bill. To find the 18 percent of a number, we need to multiply this number by 18 and then divide by 100. In this case, the tip is:

The positive integers that can divide a number evenly are known as factors in mathematics. Let's say we multiply two numbers to produce a result. The product's factors are the number that is multiplied. Each number has a self-referential element. There are several examples of factors in everyday life, such putting candies in a box, arranging numbers in a certain pattern, giving chocolates to kids, etc. We must apply the multiplication or division method in order to determine a number's factors.The numbers that can divide a number exactly are called factors. There is therefore no residual after division. The numbers you multiply together to obtain another number are called factors. A factor is therefore another number's divisor.

To find:
a) the different three-ball combinations one can have if 3 balls are pulled out of the bag
b) the total number of possible combinations there are if you draw all the balls out of the bag one at a time in factorial form
a) To determine the 3-ball combinations, we will apply combination as the order they are picked doesnot matter

The possible combination = 30 × 29 × 28 × 27 × 26 × 25 ......5 × 4 × 3 × 2 ×1
The above is an expansion of a number factorial. the number is 30
30! = 30 × 29 × 28 × 27 × 26 × 25 ......5 × 4 × 3 × 2 ×1
Hence, the total number of possible combinations when you draw all the balls out of the bag one at a time in factorial form is 30!
Brad expects that he will need $12,000 in 6 years to start an engineering consulting business. He has been offered an investment at 5%, compounded monthly. How much must he invest today to have enough money in 6 years? How much interest will he have earned?
Answer:
Invest today: $8895.36
Interest earned: $3104.64
Explanation:
The amount after t years can be calculated as:
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]Where P is the initial amount invested, r is the interest rate and t is the number of years and n is the number of times the interest rate is compound. Solving the equation for P, we get:
[tex]P=\frac{A}{(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}}[/tex]Now, we can replace A by $12,000, r by 5% = 0.05, n by 12 because it is compounded monthly and t by 6
[tex]P=\frac{12000}{(1+\frac{0.05}{12})^{12(6)}}=8895.36[/tex]Therefore, he should invest $8895.36 today to have enough money in 6 years.
Finally, the interest earned is calculated as
$12000 - $8895.36 = $3104.64
So, the answers are:
Invest today: $8895.36
Interest earned: $3104.64

[tex]\begin{gathered} x^4-25x^2+144=(x^2)^2+(-9-16)x^2+(-9)(-16) \\ =(x^2-9)(x^2-16)\text{.} \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, notice that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2-9=x^2-3^2=(x+3)(x-3), \\ x^2-16=x^2-4^2=(x+4)(x-4)\text{.} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore:
[tex]x^4-25x^2+144=(x+3)(x-3)(x+4)(x-4)\text{.}[/tex]Answer:
[tex]x^4-25x^2+144=(x+3)(x-3)(x+4)(x-4)\text{.}[/tex]
