Farmer Phil needs to treat a field with potash and nitrogen. He knows he needs 308 pounds of potash and 330 pounds of nitrogen. He can use Grow Rite brand and Great Green Brand. Grow Rite has 4 pounds of potash and 5 pounds of nitrogen per bag. Great Green has 7 pounds of potash and 6 pounds of nitrogen per bag.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of bags of Grow Rite brand = x = 42 bags

The number of bags of Great Green brand = y = 20 bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of bags of Grow Rite brand = x

The number of bags of Great Green brand = y

The equation is given as:

4x + 7y = 308....... Equation 1

5x + 6y = 330....... Equation 2

Using Elimination method.

Multiply Equation 2 by the coefficient of x in Equation 1 and Multiply Equation 1 by the coefficient of x in Equation 2

4x + 7y = 308....... Equation 1 × 5

5x + 6y = 330....... Equation 2 × 4

20x + 35y = 1540..... Equation 3

20x + 24y = 1320....... Equation 4

Subtract Equation 3 from Equation 4

11y = 220

y = 220/11

y = 20 bags

4x + 7y = 308....... Equation 1

4x + 7(20) = 308

4x + 140 = 308

4x = 308 - 140

4x = 168

x = 168/4

x = 42 bags

The number of bags of Grow Rite brand = x = 42 bags

The number of bags of Great Green brand = y = 20 bags.

A nursery owner buys 9 panes of glass to fix some damage to his greenhouse. The 9 panes cost ​$22.05 ​Unfortunately, he breaks 4 more panes while repairing the damage. What is the cost of another 4 panes of​ glass?

Answers

Answer: $9.80

Step-by-step explanation:22.05/9=2.45x4= 9.80

Answer:

$4.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Two panes of glass cost $4.30.

Explanation

First find the cost of one pane of glass (the "unit cost")

7 panes of glass cost

$

15.05

, so one pane of glass costs

15.05

÷7∩

$2.15 ← cost of one pane of glass

Then use that answer to find the cost of two panes of glass

If one pane of glass costs $2.15, then 2 panes cost 2× $2.15 $4.30 ← cost of two panes of glass

Answer:

Two panes of glass cost $4.30.

Answers

Moving downstream (with the current), the boat moves at a rate of (252 mi)/(12 h) = 21 mph. Upstream (against the current), it moves at a rate of (252 mi)/(84 h) = 3 mph.

When traveling downstream, the boat's speed is the sum of its own speed in still water and the speed of the current. It's the same going upstream, but the boat and current move in opposite directions. Let b and c denote these speeds, respectively. Then

downstream: b + c = 21 mph

upstream:      b - c = 3 mph

Adding these equations eliminates c and lets us solve for b :

(b + c) + (b - c) = 21 mph + 3 mph

2b = 24 mph

b = 12 mph

Now solve for c :

12 mph + c = 21 mph

c = 9 mph

What the solution for x is in 14+x=3a+ab?

Answers

Answer: a= x+14 /b+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

14 + x = 3a + ab

Solving

14 + x = 3a + ab

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-14' to each side of the equation.

14 + -14 + x = 3a + -14 + ab

Combine like terms: 14 + -14 = 0

0 + x = 3a + -14 + ab

x = 3a + -14 + ab

Reorder the terms:

x = -14 + 3a + ab

Simplifying

x = -14 + 3a + ab

Safety regulations require that the time between airplane takeoffs (on the same runway) will be at least 4 minutes. When taking off, the run time of an airplane on the runway is 24 seconds. Planes are on average waiting 5 minutes and 54 seconds for take-off. On average there are 12 planes taking off per hour. How many planes are either on the runway or waiting to take off?

Answers

Answer:

1 plane either on the runway or waiting to take off

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Frequency of take off = 12 planes per hour = 12/60 = 0.2 planes per minute

Waiting time on runway = 5 minutes 54 seconds = 5.9 minutes

Run time on runway = 24 seconds = 24/60 minutes = 0.4 minutes

To solve this question, we will use Little's law which is given by the formula;

System inventory = rate of flow × throughput time

Now, rate of flow is the same as Frequency of take off.

Thus, rate of flow = 0.2 planes per minute

Throughput time = Waiting time on runway + Run time on runway

Thus;

Throughput time = 5.9 minutes + 0.4 minutes

Throughput time = 6.3 minutes

Thus;

System inventory = 0.2 × 6.3 = 1.26 planes

Thus is approximately 1 plane.
