NEED HELP A mine extracts 2 tons of ore in an hour. Of the total ore extracted in a day, 4 tons is purchased by the government and more than 10 tons is sold to a mineral extractor. If the mine operates for x hours in a day, what is the simplest inequality that represents the number of hours the mine must operate to meet its obligations?
A.
x > 3
B.
x > 4
C.
x > 5
D.
x > 7

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. x > 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The mine operates x hours per day and extracts 2 tons of ore per hour.

The amount of ore extracted as a function of hours of operation is

2x

The mine must produce 4 tons plus more than 10 tons each day. The mine must produce more than 14 tons in one day. That means that 2x must be greater than 14.

2x > 14

Divide both sides by 2.

x > 7

Answer: D. x > 7

The sum of two numbers is 47. twice the first number and three times the second number have a sum of 100. Set up a system of equations to find the numbers

Answers

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 47

2x + 3y = 100

Solving steps

x + y = 47 (-2)

2x + 3y = 100

We multiply the first equation by -2. This is so that x changes to -2x (So it would match the x below). We can then cross it over, since the equation below has 2x and -2x + 2x = 0.

-2x - 2y = -94

2x + 3y = 100

Y = 6

We get y = 6 by subtracting -2y (From the above equation) from 3y. This gives us Y. Afterwards, We subtract -94 (From the above equation) from 100 and that gives us 6. Therefore, y = 6.

To get x. We sub in the value for y into one of the equations and solve.

2x + 3(6) = 100

2x + 18 = 100

We bring over 18 from one side to the other, to get x alone. We have to change 18 to - 18 because it crosses over to the other side.

2x = 100 - 18

2x = 72

x = 72÷2

x = 36.

X = 36

Y = 6

(36, 6)

A bakery made 1, 575 butter cookies. After arranging the cookies into packages, the bakery did not have any cookies left. How many cookies could have in each package? *
1 point
A. 6
B. 5
C. 9
D.4​

Answers

Answer:

B. 5 might be the answer.

Answer: Either B. 5 or C. 9

Explanation: Assuming there would be the same amount of cookies in each package, to see if they would all fit perfectly and there be no leftover cookies, simply divide 1,575 (the number of total cookies) by how many cookies could be in each package. If it comes out with "point something," then the numbers after the decimal point would be how many cookies will be leftover. 5 and 9 both end up with no decimal, so that's as much as I know.

triangle ABC is isosceles with AB=AC and angle A=50°. the bisector of angle B and angle C meet at D. find the measure of BDC

Answers

Answer:

115 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From what I'm visualizing, D is a point of another isosceles triangle within ABC, so to find the measure of angle BDC, we have to find the other angles first.

First, we have to find angle B and C. since this is an isosceles triangle and AB=AC, these two angles are equal and we find their angle measure by subtracting the known angle A, from the total measure of all angles in a triangle, 180

180 - 50 = 130

then divide that by two to get the two equal angles

130/2 - 65

angle bisector divides the angles in half so the measures of CBD and BCD are 65/2

that leaves the last remaining angle BDC. Again, we take the known angles and subtract them from 180

180 - 65/2 -65/2 = 115

Adam has x baseball cards Ben has twice as many as Adam Carlos has 8 more than Adam Write the expression that indicates how many cards that Carlos has.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

I am pretty sure all this would be is :

Let c = Carlos's baseball cards

c = x + 8

Since Ben in this problem is irrelevant to Carlos, we just are using Adams cards and adding 8 onto them to find Carlos's cards since he has 8 more.

Since :

"Carlos has 8 more than Adam Write"

"Adam has x baseball cards"

So:

c = x + 8

A newsstand seller sold a total of 68 magazines and newspapers, which brought in a total of $199 on a certain day. Newspapers sell for $2 per copy and magazines sold for $5 per copy. How many magazines were sold on that day?

Answers

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Using inequality to solve this question, we say

Let the total number of newspapers sold be x

Let the total number of magazines sold by y

x + y = 68

Suppose 1x = $2 and 1y = $5, then

2x + 5y = $199

Solving both as a simultaneous equation, we get that

2(68 - y) + 5y = $199

136 - 2y + 5y = $199

136 + 3y = $199

3y = 199 - 136

3y = 63

y = 63/3

y = 21

Then solving for x, we have

x + 21 = 68

x = 68 - 21

x = 47

Therefore, a total of 21 magazines were sold that day
