A chemist has three different acid solutions.

The first solution contains 25% acid, the second contains 35%acid, and the third contains 55% acid.
She created 120 liters of a 40% acid mixture, using all three solutions. The number of liters of 55% solution used is 3 times the number of liters of 35% solution used.

How many liters of each solution was used?

Answers

Answer 1

Let x, y, and z be the amounts (in liters, L) of the 25%, 35%, and 55% solutions that the chemist used.

She ended up with 120 L of solution, so

x + y + z = 120 … … … [1]

x L of 25% acid solution contains 0.25x L of acid. Similarly, y L of 35% solution contains 0.35y L of acid, and z L of 55% solution contains 0.55z L of acid. The concentration of the new solution is 40%, so that it contains 0.40 (120 L) = 48 L of acid, which means

0.25x + 0.35y + 0.55z = 48 … … … [2]

Lastly,

z = 3y … … … [3]

since the chemist used 3 times as much of the 55% solution as she did the 35% solution.

Substitute equation [3] into equations [1] and [2] to eliminate z :

x + y + 3y = 120

x + 4y = 120 … … … [4]

0.25x + 0.35y + 0.55 (3y) = 48

0.25x + 2y = 48 … … … [5]

Multiply through equation [5] by -2 and add that to [4] to eliminate y and solve for x :

(x + 4y) - 2 (0.25x + 2y) = 120 - 2 (48)

0.5x = 24

x = 48

Solve for y :

x + 4y = 120

4y = 72

y = 18

Solve for z :

z = 3y

z = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 + 9x – 14

g(x) = x^2 – x + 3

(f – g)(x)=x^2 + 9x – 14  - (x^2 – x + 3)

At a time hours after taking a tablet, the rate at which a drug is being eliminated r(t)= 50 (e^-01t - e^-0.20t)is mg/hr. Assuming that all the drug is eventually eliminated, calculate the original dose.

Answers

Answer:

2500 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Since r(t) is the rate at which the drug is being eliminated, we integrate r(t) with t from 0 to ∞ to find the original dose of drug, m. Since all of the drug will be eliminated at time t = ∞.

Since r(t) =  50 (e^-01t - e^-0.20t)

m = ∫₀⁰⁰50 (e^-01t - e^-0.20t)

= 50∫₀⁰⁰(e^-01t - e^-0.20t)

= 50[∫₀⁰⁰e^-01t - ∫₀⁰⁰e^-0.20t]

= 50([e^-01t/-0.01]₀⁰⁰ - [e^-0.20t/-0.02]₀⁰⁰)

= 50(1/-0.01[e^-01(∞) - e^-01(0)] - {1/-0.02[e^-0.02(∞) - e^-0.02(0)]})

= 50(1/-0.01[e^-(∞) - e^-(0)] - {1/-0.02[e^-(∞) - e^-(0)]})

= 50(1/-0.01[0 - 1] - {1/-0.02[0 - 1]})

= 50(1/-0.01[- 1] - {1/-0.02[- 1]})

= 50(1/0.01 - 1/0.02)

= 50(100 - 50)

= 50(50)

= 2500 mg

Use the discriminant to determine the number of solutions to the quadratic equation −40m2+10m−1=0

Answers

From the analysis of the discriminant, you obtain that the quadratic function has no real solutions.

In first place, you must know that the roots or solutions of a quadratic function are those values ​​of x for which the expression is 0. This is the values ​​of x such that y = 0. That is, f (x) = 0.

Being the quadratic function f (x)=a*x² + b*x + c, then the solution must be when: 0 =a*x² + b*x + c

The solutions of a quadratic equation can be calculated with the quadratic formula:

[tex]Solutions=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2} -4*a*c} }{2*a}[/tex]

The discriminant is the part of the quadratic formula under the square root, that is, b² - 4*a*c

The discriminant can be positive, zero or negative and this determines how many solutions (or roots) there are for the given quadratic equation.

If the discriminant:

is positive: the quadratic function has two different real solutions. equal to zero: the quadratic function has a real solution. is negative: none of the solutions are real numbers. That is, it has no real solutions.

In this case, a= -40, b=10 and c= -1. Then, replacing in the discriminant expression:

discriminant= 10² -4*(-40)*(-1)

Solving:

discriminant= 100 - 160

discriminant= -60

The discriminant is negative, so the quadratic function has no real solutions.

Answers

Answer:

made up of about 20 common amino acids. The proportion of these amino acids varies as a characteristic of a given protein, but all food proteins—with the exception of gelatin—contain some of each. Amino nitrogen accounts for approximately 16% of the weight of proteins. Amino acids are required for the synthesis of body protein and other important nitrogen-containing compounds, such as creatine, peptide hormones, and some neurotransmitters. Although allowances are expressed as protein, a the biological requirement is for amino acids.

Proteins and other nitrogenous compounds are being degraded and resynthesized continuously. Several times more protein is turned over daily within the body than is ordinarily consumed, indicating that reutilization of amino acids is a major feature of the economy of protein metabolism. This process of recapture is not completely efficient, and some amino acids are lost by oxidative catabolism. Metabolic products of amino acids (urea, creatinine, uric acid, and other nitrogenous products) are excreted in the urine; nitrogen is also lost in feces, sweat, and other body secretions and in sloughed skin, hair, and nails. A continuous supply of dietary amino acids is required to replace these losses, even after growth has ceased.

Amino acids consumed in excess of the amounts needed for the synthesis of nitrogenous tissue constituents are not stored but are degraded; the nitrogen is excreted as urea, and the keto acids left after removal of the amino groups are either utilized directly as sources of energy or are converted to carbohydrate or fat.

60:(1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,60)

find the sum 38+39+40+41...+114+115

Answers

It seems like you want to find the sum of 38 to 115:

[tex] \displaystyle \large{38 + 39 + 40 + 41 + ... + 114 + 115}[/tex]

If we notice, this is arithmetic series or the sum of arithmetic sequences.

To find the sum of the sequences, there are three types of formulas but I will demonstrate only one and the best for this problem.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{S_n = \frac{n(a_1+a_n) }{2} }[/tex]

This formula only applies to the sequences that have the common difference = 1.

Given that a1 = first term of sequence/series, n = number of terms and a_n = last term

We know the first term which is 38 and the last term is 115. The problem here is the number of sequences.

To find the n, you can use the following formula.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{n = (a_n - a_1) + 1}[/tex]

Substitute an = 115 and a1 = 38 in the formula of finding n.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{n = (115 - 38) + 1} \\ \displaystyle \large{n = (77) + 1} \\ \displaystyle \large{n = 78}[/tex]

Therefore the number of sequences is 78.

Then we substitute an = 115, a1 = 38 and n = 78 in the sum formula.

[tex] \displaystyle \large{S_{78} = \frac{78(38+115) }{2} } \\ \displaystyle \large{S_{78} = \frac{39(38+115) }{1} } \\ \displaystyle \large{S_{78} = 39(153) } \\ \displaystyle \large \boxed{S_{78} = 5967}[/tex]

Hence, the sum is 5967.

The profit earned by a hot dog stand is a linear function of the number of hot dogs sold.

y = 2x - 48 equation represents the profit earned by the x hot dog sold.

What is linear equation?

A linear equation is an algebraic expression in which highest power of the given variable is equals to one.

Given that, the profit earned by a hot dog stand is a linear function of the number of hot dogs sold.

It costs the owner $48 dollars each morning for the day’s supply of hot dogs, buns and mustard, but he earns $2 profit for each hot dog sold.

We need to establish an equation that represents the total profit,

According to the question,

x represents the number of hot dogs sold

y represents the total profit earned

Cost required for supply = $48

Profit on each hot dog sold = $2

As per the condition given, the required linear equation is =

y = 2x - 48

Hence, y = 2x - 48 equation represents the profit earned by the x hot dog sold.
