Quantity of Tanzanian blend used in my secret coffee blend = 40 pounds

Quantity of Queen city blend used in my secret coffee blend = 8 pounds

The ratio of Tanzanian blend to Queen city blend in my coffee blend = 40 : 8

Quantity of Tanzanian blend with me = 20 pounds

Quantity of Queen city bend needed to make my secret coffee blend =

Let the quantity of Queen city blend I will need be x .

$\frac{40}{8} = \frac{20}{x}$

$8 \times 20 = 40 \times x$

$160 = 40x$

$x = \frac{160}{40}$

$x = 4$

Therefore , I need to mix 4 pounds of queen city blend with my 20 pounds of Tanzanian blend to get my secret coffee blend .

Use a paragraph, flow chart, or two-column proof to prove the angle congruency. Given: ∠ CXY ≅ ∠ BXY

Llana [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider triangles CAX and BAX. In these triangles,

$\overline{AC}\cong \overline{AB}$ - given
$\angle CAX\cong \angle BAX$ - given
$\overline{AX}\cong \overline{AX}$ - reflexive property

By SAS postulate, $\triangle CAX\cong \triangle BAX$

Congruent triangles have conruent corresponding parts. So,

$\overline{CX}\cong \overline{BX}$

Consider triangles CXY and BXY. In these triangles,

$\overline{CX}\cong \overline{BX}$ - proven
$\angle CXY\cong \angle BXY$ - given
$\overline{XY}\cong \overline{XY}$ - reflexive property

By SAS postulate, $\triangle CXY\cong \triangle BXY$

Congruent triangles have conruent corresponding parts. So,

$\angle XCY\cong \angle XBY$

(a) The total cost, C, is given by:

$C(t)=3+0.5t$

b) With 3 ounces of toppings, we have

$t=3$ $C(3)=3+0.5(3)=3+1.5=4.5$

Hence Evan's ice cream would cost $4.50

What is this math problem x²+9×+14=0

WINSTONCH [101]

$x^2+9x+14=0\\\\ x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}=\frac{-9-\sqrt{9^2-4*1*14 } }{2 }=\frac{-9-\sqrt{81-56 } }{2 }= \frac{-9-\sqrt{25 } }{2 }=\\\\=\frac{-9-5 }{2 }=\frac{-14 }{2 }= -7\\\\ x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}=\frac{-9+\sqrt{9^2-4*1*14 } }{2 }= \frac{-9+5 }{2 }=\frac{- 4 }{2 }= -2$
