Brandon mixed 6.83 lb of cashews with 3.57 lb of pistachios. after filling 6 bags of same size and mixture, he had 0.35 lb left. what's the weight of each bag? use tape diagram

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Not sure what a tape diagram is but i can solve and explain for you....
weight in total = 6.83 + 3.57 = 10.4 lb
x = weight for one bag
6x = weight for all 6 bags

Then form an equation that will allow you to work out x

6x + 0.35 = 10.4 
subtract 0.35 from both sides
6x = 10.05
then divide both sides by 6 to get x on its own
x = 1.675
one bag weighs 1.675 lb
Answer 2
Answer:

The weight of each bag filled by Brandon, is \fbox{\bf1.675\,lb}.

Further explanation:

The amount of cashews and pistachios mixed are 6.83\,lb and 3.57\,lb respectively then the total weight of mixture is the sum of cashews and pistachios.

After the above nut mixture created by mixing cashews and pistachios is filled in six bags, the weight of remaining nuts is 0.35\,lb.

Therefore, the total mixture that is filled in 6 bags is obtained as the difference of total amount and the remaining mixture amount.

\begin{aligned}{\text{Total mixture filled in six bags}}&=6.83+3.57-0.35\n&=10.4-0.35\n&=10.05\n\end{aligned}

Now, this obtained amount of mixture weighing 10.05\,lb is filled equally in 6 bags as the size of bags is same then the amount of mixture in one bag or each bag is calculated as,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Total mixture filled in each bags}}&=\frac{{10.05}}{6}\n&=1.675\n\end{aligned}

Thus, the weight of each of the six bags that Brandon fills, is \fbox{\bf1.675\,lb}.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the value of (4 minus 2) cubed minus 3 times 4?
Negative 20

Answers

The expression  ((4 - 2)^3 - 3) * 4simplifies to 20, as of the given operations.

To calculate the expression  ((4 - 2)^3 - 3) * 4, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).

First, we evaluate the parentheses: (4 - 2) = 2.

Next, we calculate the cube of 2³= 8.

Then, we subtract 3 from 8:
8 - 3 = 5.

Finally, we multiply the result by 4:
5 × 4 = 20.

Therefore, the value of the expression((4 - 2)^3 - 3) * 4 is 20.

What is the y-intercept of the line y + 11=2(x+1.5)

Answers

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the equation into slope intercept form [ y = mx + b ]

y + 11 = 2(x + 1.5)

~Distribute right side

y + 11 = 2x + 3

~Subtract 11 to both sides

y = 2x - 8

"b" represents the y-intercept, so, the y-intercept is -8.

Best of Luck!
