75 POINTS IF U GET THIS CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! James has a collection of 20 miniature cars and trucks. Cars make up 40% of the collection. If James adds only cars to his collection, how many cars must he add to make the collection 75% cars?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

28 cars

Explanation:

cars + trucks = 20

Let "n" be the cars added in the collection

cars : 20 * 40% = 8 carstrucks : 20 - 8 = 12 trucks

solve:

[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{8+n}{20+n} =75\%[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf {8+n} =(20+n)75\%[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf {8+n} =15+0.75n[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf {8-15} =0.75n-n[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf -7 =0.25n[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf n = 28[/tex]

Thus, he needs to add 28 cars in the collection to make the collection 75% cars.

Answer 2

Answer:

28 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cars and trucks = 20

Cars make up 40% of the collection

⇒ Number of cars = 40% of 20

                              = 0.4 x 20

                              = 8 cars

⇒ Number of trucks = total collection - number of cars

                                  = 20 - 8

                                  = 12 trucks

To calculate how many cars must be added to make the collection 75% cars, set up a ratio equation with x being the number of cars to be added:

(Added cars + existing cars) to total collection = 75%

⇒ x + 8 : x + 8 + 12 = 75 : 100

⇒ x + 8 : x + 20 = 75 : 100

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac{x+8}{x+20}=\dfrac{75}{100}[/tex]

⇒ 100(x + 8) = 75(x + 20)

⇒ 100x + 800 = 75x + 1500

⇒ 100x -75x = 1500 - 800

⇒ 25x = 700

⇒ x = 28

Therefore he would need to add 28 cars to his collection to make his collection 75% cars.

Check

Number of cars = 8 + 28 = 36

Number of trucks = 12

Total collection = 36 + 12 = 48

Number of cars / total collection = 36/48 = 0.75 = 75%

R (-3,1) and S (-1,3) are points on a circle. If RS is a diameter, find the equation of the circle.​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sf (x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If RS is the diameter of the circle, then the midpoint of RS will be the center of the circle.

[tex]\sf midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_s-x_r}{2}+x_r,\dfrac{y_s-y_r}{2}+y_r \right)[/tex]

             [tex]\sf =\left(\dfrac{-1-(-3)}{2}+(-3),\dfrac{3-1}{2}+1 \right)[/tex]

             [tex]\sf =(-2, 2)[/tex]

Equation of a circle:   [tex]\sf (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

(where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius)

Substituting found center (-2, 2) into the equation of a circle:

[tex]\sf \implies (x-(-2))^2+(y-2)^2=r^2[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies (x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=r^2[/tex]

To find [tex]\sf r^2[/tex], simply substitute one of the points into the equation and solve:

[tex]\sf \implies (-3+2)^2+(1-2)^2=r^2[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 1+1=r^2[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies r^2=2[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the circle is:

[tex]\sf (x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=2[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is 3 inches more than it’s width.If the perimeter is 42 inches,find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer: Length = 9 in

Width = 12 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Length L = 3 + W

Perimeter P = 42 in

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

plugin values:

42 = 2(3 + W) + 2W

42 = 6 + 2W + 2W

42-6 = 4W

W = 36 / 4

W = 9  

solve L by substituting the value of W=9 into the equation:

L = 3 + W

L = 3 + 9

L = 12

therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle:

               Length = 9 in

               Width = 12 in

Answer:

You are mixing two kinds of candy to make 10 pounds of a mixture worth $5.50 per pound. One kind is $6 per pound and the other is $4 per pound. How many pounds of each should you use? Show all your work.​

Answers

Answer:

5.60 pounds each

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the dry mixture problem.

Let x = the number of pounds of the first type of candy

Therefore, number of pounds of second type of candy = 10-x

Value of first candy + value of second candy = value of mixture

Value of any candy = cost per pound of candy * weight of candy

Thus:

4x + 6(10 - x) = 5.60(10)

4x + 60 - 6x = 56

-2x + 60 = 56

-2x = -4

x = -4/-2

x = 2

Therefore, the number of pounds of first type of candy = 2 pounds

The number of pounds of second type of candy = 10 - 2 = 8 pounds

Check

$4(2) + $6(8) =

           8 + 48 = $5.60(10)

               $56 = $56

The area enclosed by the graphs of y = 1/x, y = 1, and x = 3 is rotated about the line y = -1. Find the volume and show steps.

Answers

Answer:

9.852

Step-by-step explanation:

First, Graph all three functions and find where they intersect and the shape that they make through their intersection. Note that since the shape does not touch the y= -1 line, we will use the "washer" method (where the volume equals  [tex]\pi\int\limits^a_b {R(x)\x^{2} - r(x)^{2} } \, dx[/tex].

The next step is to find a and b. Since the function that the area is going to be rotated about is a " y =" equations, the boundaries will be the x coordinates where the three functions intersect, b=1 for (1,1) and a=3 for (3,1).

Next we have to find R(x) and r(x). In this case, R(x) is the difference between the function furthest away from the axis of rotation and the function of the axis of rotation (or visa versa depending on which is on top), and r(x) is the difference between the function closest to the axis of rotation and the function of the axis of rotation (or visa versa depending on which is on top.

For this problem R(x) = 1 - (-1) and r(x) = 1/x - (-1) since when you look at the graph, Y = 1  is further from y = -1 than y = 1/x is, and both functions are on top of y = -1.

Finally plug in R(x) and r(x) and solve either using a calculator or through integration. If you solve through integration you should get [tex]\pi (-2ln(3) + \frac{16}{3} )[/tex].

of the fruits at a warehouse were apples and the remaining fruits were oranges. There were 291 more red apples than green apples and there were 3455 oranges in the warehouse. How many red apples were there?

Answers

Answer:

491 red apples

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 are apples

then 5/6 are oranges

red apples = green apples + 291

there are 3455 oranges

total amount of fruits is :

3455 / (5/6) = (3455 x 6)/5 = 4146

4146 - 3455 = 691 apples ( total )

so red + green = 691

and red - green = 291

add the two equations

red + red + green - green = 691 + 291

2red = 982

red = 982 / 2 = 491 red apples

green = 691 - 491 = 200 green apples

so red is 291 more than green

then red = 491
