Suppose that it takes 12 units of carbohydrates and 8 units of protein to satisfy Jacob's minimum weekly requirements. A particular type of meat contains 2 units of carbohydrates and 2 units of protein per pound. A particular cheese contains 3 units of carbohydrates and 1 unit of protein per pound. The meat costs $3.70 per pound and the cheese costs $2.60 per pound. How many pounds of each are needed in order to minimize the cost and still meet the minimum requirements? What is the minimum cost?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. The number of pounds of the meat required is 3 pounds and the number of pounds of cheese required is 2 pounds.

b. $ 16.7

Step-by-step explanation:

a. How many pounds of each are needed in order to minimize the cost and still meet the minimum requirements?

Let c represent the carbohydrate units and p the protein units.

For the meat portion M, we have 2 units of carbohydrates and 2 units of protein per pound. So, M = 2c + 2p

For the cheese portion K, we have 3 units of carbohydrates and 1 units of protein per pound. So, K = 3c + p.

Let x be the number of pounds of meat required and y be the number of cheese pounds required. The total number of pounds required is T

So, we have xM + yK = x(2c + 2p) + y(3c + p)

= 2xc + 2xp + 3yc + yp

= 2xc + 3yc + 2xp + yp

= (2x + 3y)c + (2x + y)p

Since the required number of units, R is 12 units of carbohydrates and 8 units of protein, we have R = 12c + 8p

Since T = R, we have

(2x + 3y)c + (2x + y)p = 12c + 8p

Equating coefficients, we have

2x + 3y = 12 (1) and 2x + y = 8 (2)

Subtracting (2) from (1), we have

2x + 3y = 12 (1)

-

2x + y = 8 (2)

2y = 4

y = 4/2

y = 2

Substituting y = 2 into (2), we have

2x + y = 8

2x + 2 = 8

2x = 8 - 2

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Since x = 3 and y = 2

The number of pounds of the meat required is 3 pounds and the number of pounds of cheese required is 2 pounds.

What is the minimum cost?​

Since meat costs $3.70 per pound and the cheese costs $2.60 per pound and we have 3 pounds of meat and 2 pounds of cheese, the total cost of meat is C = $3.70/pound × 3 pounds = $ 11.1.

The total cost of cheese is C' = $2.60/pound × 2 pounds = $ 5.2.

So, the minimum cost C" = C + C' = $ 11.1 + $ 5.2 = $ 16.7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular, product of both gradients = -1

hence, slope = -1/5

y=-1/5x+c

-1=-1/5(-6)+c

c = -1-6/5=-11/5

Find the most general antiderivative of the function. (Check your answer by differentiation. Use C for the constant of the antiderivative. Remember to use absolute values where appropriate.)
f(x) = 45−5x, x>0 .

Answers

Answer:

F(x) = 45*x - (5/2)*x^2 + C

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to find the antiderivative of the function:

f(x) = 45 - 5*x

Remember the general rule that, for a given function:

g(x) = a*x^n

the antiderivative is:

G(x) = (a/(n + 1))*a*x^(n + 1) + C

where C is a constant.

Then for the case of f(x) we have:

F(x) = (45/1)*x^1 - (5/2)*x^2 + C

F(x) = 45*x - (5/2)*x^2 + C

Now if we derivate this, we get:

dF(x)/dx = 1*45*x^0 - 2*(5/2)*x

dF(x)/dx = 45 - 5*x

Find the value of B from the equation 2A - B = 1:

[tex]2A-B=1\\-B=1-2A\\B=2A-1[/tex]

Substitute in the B-value to the other equation:

Step-by-step explanation:

The boiling point of water in Celsius is 100.

The way to calculate Celsius to Fahrenheit:

F = (C × 9/5) + 32

So we plug in 100 for C.

F = (100 × 9/5) + 32

F = 180 + 32

F = 212

Therefore, the numbered pair is 212 degrees F and 100 degrees  C.

Help me out with these 2 questions for 15 points.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The time dilation formula is given by

[tex]F(t) = \dfrac{t}{\sqrt{1-v^2}}[/tex]

where t is the time measured by the moving observer and F(t) is the time measured by the stationary earth-bound observer and v is the velocity of the moving observer expressed as a fraction of the speed of light.

a) If the observer is moving at 80% of the speed of light and observes an event that lasts for 1 second, a stationary observer will see the same event occurring over a time period of

[tex]F(t) = \dfrac{1\:\text{s}}{\sqrt{1-(0.8)^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\dfrac{1\:\text{s}}{\sqrt{1-(0.8)^2}} =\dfrac{1\:\text{s}}{\sqrt{1-(0.64)}}[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=1.67\:\text{s}[/tex]

This means that any event observed by this moving observer will be seen by a stationary observer to occur 67% longer.

b) Given:

t = 1 second

F(t) = 2 seconds

We need to find the speed of the observer such that an event seen by this observer will occur twice as long as seen by a stationary observer. Move the term containing the radical to the left side so the equation becomes

[tex]\sqrt{1-v^2} = \dfrac{t}{F(t)}[/tex]

Take the square of both sides, we get

[tex]1 - v^2 =\dfrac{t^2}{F^2(t)}[/tex]

Solving for v, we get

[tex]v^2 = 1 - \dfrac{t^2}{F^2(t)}[/tex]

or

[tex]v = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{t^2}{F^2(t)}}[/tex]

Putting in the values for t and F(t) we get

[tex]v = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{(1\:\text{s})^2}{(2\:\text{s})^2}}[/tex]

[tex]v = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{1}{4}} = \sqrt{0.75}[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:=0.866[/tex]

This means that the observer must moves at 86.6% of the speed of light.

An education researcher would like to test whether 2nd graders retain or lose knowledge during the summer when they are presumably not in school. She asks nine 2nd graders to take a comprehension exam at the end of the school year (May), and then asks those same students to come back after the summer (late August) to retake a different but equivalent exam, to see if their level of comprehension has changed. Using the data below, test this hypothesis using an (alpha level of 0.05.)

The hypothesis :

H0 : μd = 0

H1 : μd ≠ 0

The test statistic :

T = dbar / (Sdbar/√n)

Where, dbar and Sdbar are the mean and standard deviation of 'd' respectively.

Using calculator :

dbar = - 7.777 ; Sdbar = 9.052

Test statistic = - 7.777 / (9.052 /√9)

Test statistic = - 2.577

The Pvalue, df = n - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8

Pvalue(-2.577, 8) = 0.0327

messages was two less than four times the number of other messages. How many of
the email messages were spam?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of spam and other messages be s and o respectively.

Total number of messages= 78

s +o= 78 -----(1)

s= 4o -2 -----(2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

4o -2 +o= 78

Simplify:

5o -2= 78

+2 on both sides:

5o= 78 +2

5o= 80

Divide both sides by 5:

o= 80 ÷5

o= 16

Since s +o= 78, s= 78 -o.

s= 78 -16

s= 62

Answer:

D. 157

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to find the value of the expression 4(x²+3)-2y is when x=-6 and y=-1/2

Let's first simplify the expression, as that will likely make it easier

Distribute 4 to both x² and 3

4x²+12-2y

That's the expression

Substitute -6 as x into the expression

4(-6)²+12-2y

Raise (-6) to the second power

4*36+12-2y

Multiply 36 by 4

144+12-2y

Add 12 and 144 together

156-2y

Now the expression is 156-2y

But remember that we know that y=-1/2, and we haven't substituted it into the expression yet

Substitute -1/2  as y into the expression

156-2(-1/2)

Multiply

156+2/2

Simplify

156+1

Add
