In a bag there are blue sweets, red sweets and yellow sweets. The number of blue sweets is four times the number of yellow sweets. The number of red sweets is half the number of yellow sweets. Find the percentage of sweets in the bag that are yellow.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

18.18%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of sweets in the bag that are yellow is as follows:

Let us assume the number of yellow sweets be x

So for number of blue sweets be 4x

And, the number of red sweets be 0.5x

So it could be written as

Blue Red Yellow

4        0.5    1

8        1        2

So for yellow, the percentage is

= 2 ÷ (8 + 1 + 2)

= 2 ÷ 11

= 18.18%

x+y=10

x=-21

subtitue the x value

-21+y=2

solve for y

y=22

The grocery store had 4lb bag of oranges for 4.80$ and a 6lb bag for 6.18$ . What is the difference of the 4lb bag of oranges and the 6lb bag of oranges

Answers

Answer:

$1.38

Step-by-step explanation:

The grocery store had 4lb bag of oranges for 4.80$ and a 6lb bag for 6.18$ . What is the difference of the 4lb bag of oranges and the 6lb bag of oranges

The cost difference is calculated as:

Cost of 6lbs of oranges - Cost of 4lbs of oranges

Cost of 6lbs of oranges = $6.18

Cost of 4lbs of oranges = $4.80

Hence,

= $6.18 - $4.80

= $1.38

Written as a simplified polynomial in standard form, what is the result when
(x - 2)^2is subtracted from 9x^2-8x?

Answers

Answer:

9x^2 - 10x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is set up like this

     9x^2 - 8x

-              (x-2)2

First solve (x-2)2

the answer is (2x-4)

so now you can do this instead

    9x^2 - 8x

-              2x - 4

----------------------------------

9x^2 - 10x +4

9x^2 minus zero is 9x^2

-8x-2x is -10x

0- -4 is 4 because that is like saying 0 + 4 because double negatives equal a positive

A simpler way is to change all the numbers to the opposite sign and then change the minus to a plus

like this

    9x^2 - 8x

+              -2x + 4

----------------------------------

9x^2 - 10x +4

8x^2-4x-4

The area of a rectangular field is 48m2 and one of its sides is 6m . How long will a lady take to cross the field diagonally at the rate of 20m/min

Answers

Answer:

It will take her approximately 28 seconds to cross the diagonal of the pitch

Step-by-step explanation:

If we can find the length of the diameter of the field (in Metres), we can easily find the time it takes her to cross this length using motion equations.

Step one: Find the length of the field from its area.

The field is rectangular in shape. The area of the field is 48m^2. To get the area of the field, we had to multiply its length and its breadth.

i.e area = length X breadth.

Let us assume that the breadth = 6m

its length will be area / breadth = 42/ 6 = 7m

The length of the pitch = 7 m

Step Two: Find the length of the diagonal using Pythagoras' theorem.

From Pythagoras'theorem, the length of the diagonal  can be obtained by

[tex]diagonal = \sqrt{l^2 +b^2}[/tex]

[tex]diagonal = \sqrt{6^2+ 7^2} = 9.22m[/tex]

The length of the diagonal is 9.22m

Step three: Find the time using her speed and the distance she needs to cover.

Time = distance / speed

time = 9.22 /20 = 0.46 minutes

It will take her approximately 28 seconds to cross the diagonal of the pitch

Anais bought 4 1/2 yards of ribbon. She had 3 feet 8 inches of ribbon left after trimming some curtains. How many inches of ribbon did anais use to trim the curtains

Answers

Answer:

First convert all numbers into inches since that is the answer being solved for.

1 yard =36 inches

4.5 x 36 = 1,620 inches

1 foot = 12 inches

3 x 12 = 36 inches

36 + 8 = 44 inches

Now take 1,620 inches (starting ribbon measure) and subtract 44 inches (what was left over) to get the inches used to trim curtains.

1,620 inches - 44inches =

1,576 inches were used to trim the curtains.

That’s because in radicals if there’s a square inside they square root that and put it on the outside. For example for √8, it would be 2√2, since the four can be square rooted, and there is still a 2 left inside the square root. For √48, there is a sixteen inside so you square root the 16 and get 4√3. Hope this helps

At a zoo, the price of 4 adult tickets and 6 child tickets is $77.The price of 6 adult tickets and 4 child tickets is $83. What is the ticket price for one adult and for one child?

Answers

Answer:

the cost of 1 child ticket is $6.5 and the cost of 1 adult ticket is $9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

the price of 4 adult tickets & 6 child tickets = $77

the price of  6 adult tickets & 4 child tickets = 83

then the price of 1 adult ticket and 1 child ticket will be:

Let assume that the cost of 1 adult ticket to be $p

Then;

the cost of 4 adult ticket = $4p

Similarly, the cost of 6 adult ticket = $6p

However, assuming that the cost of 1 child ticket is $q

Then;

the cost of 6 child ticket = $6q

the cost of 4 child ticket = $4q

We can express them with their given prices that:

4p + 6q = 77    --- (1)

6p + 4q  = 83   --- (2)

From equation (1), let 4p = 77 - 6q

Then; [tex]p = \dfrac{77 - 6q}{4}[/tex]

replace the value of p into equation (2)

[tex]6 \Big ( \dfrac{ 77 - 6q }{4}\Big) + 4q = 83[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{462 - 36q}{4}+ 4q = 83[/tex]

[tex]115.5 - 9q + 4q = 83 \\ \\ 115.5 -5q= 83 \\ \\ 115.5 - 83 = 5q \\ \\ 32.5 = 5q[/tex]

[tex]q= \dfrac{32.5}{5}[/tex]

q = 6.5

Since q = 6.5, then using equation (1)

4p + 6(6.5) = 77

4p +39 = 77

4p = 77 -39

4p = 38

p = 38/4

p = 9.5

Thus, the cost of 1 child ticket is $6.5 and the cost of 1 adult ticket is $9.5
