A large container is partially filled with n liters of water. Ito adds 10 liters of water to the container, making it 60% full. If Ignacio adds 6 more liters of water, the container will be 75% full.

What is the value of n?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]14\text{ liters}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount of water the container can hold be [tex]t[/tex]. Currently, there are [tex]n[/tex] liters in the container. If Ito adds 10 liters of water, the container will be 60% full. We can express this statement in the following mathematical equation:

[tex]n+10=0.6t[/tex]

Next, we're given that if we add 6 more liters to this, the container will be 75% full.

Therefore, we have:

[tex]n+10+6=0.75t,\\n+16=0.75t[/tex]

This is a system of equations:

[tex]\begin{cases}n+10=0.6t,\\ n+16=0.75t\end{cases}[/tex]

Subtract both equations to conveniently get rid of [tex]n[/tex]:

[tex]10-16=0.6t-0.75t,[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]-6=-0.15t[/tex]

Divide both sides by -0.15:

[tex]t=\frac{-6}{-0.15}=40[/tex]

Now substitute [tex]t=40[/tex] into any equation (I'll choose the first):

[tex]n+10=0.6(40),\\n+10=24[/tex]

Subtract 10 from both sides:

[tex]n=24-10=\boxed{14\text{ liters}}[/tex]

Explain the process due to which rain falls ? Class 4 - EVS​

Answers

Answer:

As you may already know, water drops that fall from the cloud are considered "rain".

The Sun's heat turns the moisture or water from leaves, plants, rivers, lakes, and oceans - and turns it into gas or also called, vapor. This water vapor then turns into gas and disappears into the air. When it gets mixed with the air, it cools down. When it cools down, it changes into small water drops, which then form a cloud. These small water drops join together with other water drops to create larger and bigger water drops.

You may know this now because this is the easiest part. What happens when something gets heavy or is over-filled? It falls down, right?

So, the large drops from water fall down as they get too heavy for the cloud to carry. These big droplets falling down on us are called Rain.

The bar graph shows the median income for families in the United States from 1993 through 2000.
Which two consecutive years saw the largest increase in median income?

A. 1994–1995

B. 1997–1998

C. 1998–1999

D. 1999–2000

Answers

The two consecutive years in which there is the largest increase in the median income is option B i.e. 1997-1998.

Given that

In 1994-1995, the median income is 37,500 and 38,500.In 1997-1998, the median income is 39,700 and 41,000.In 1998-1999, the median income is 41,000 and 42,200.In 1999-2000, the median income is 42,500 and its less.

So after analysis, we can conclude that The two consecutive years in which there is the largest increase in the median income is option B i.e. 1997-1998.

Please help me with this anyone

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by combining like terms and then factoring. Combining like terms will give you

[tex]10p^2-17p-20=0[/tex] Using the "old-fashioned" way of factoring, the a times c method, our a = 10, b = -17 and c = -20.

a * c = 10(-20) = -200 and now we need the factors of 200 (don't worry about the negative) that combine to give us that middle term, -17p (here is where the negative matters). The factors of 200 are:

1. 200;  2, 100;  4. 50;  5, 40;  8, 25;  10, 20

The combination of those numbers that can be manipulated to give us a -17p is the 8, 25 as long as we say that the 25 is negative and the 8 is positive. Rewrite the original polynomial to reflect those factors:

[tex]10p^2-25p+8p-20=0[/tex] and then factor by grouping:

[tex](10p^2-25p)+(8p-20)=0[/tex] and factor out from each set of parenthesis what is common:

[tex]5p(2p-5)+4(2p-5)=0[/tex] again factor out what is common:

(2p - 5)(5p+ 4) = 0. These are the factors; therefore the solutions are

2p - 5 = 0 so

2p = 5 and

p = 5/2  and

5p + 4 = 0 and

5p = -4 so

p = -4/5

9) Assume that the random variable X is normally distributed, with mean = 90 and standard deviation o = 12. Compute the probability P(57 < X < 105).
A) 0.7888 B) 0.8944 C) 0.8914 D) 0.8819​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean, [tex]\bar{x}[/tex], is 90 and the standard deviation, [tex]\sigma[/tex], is 12.  We are looking for the probability that the variable X will fall between 57 and 105. We use the z-score table for this, AFTER we find the z scores. The formula to find the z-scores for us is:

[tex]P(\frac{57-\bar{x}}{\sigma}\leq z\leq \frac{105-\bar{x}}{\sigma})[/tex] and we fill in accordingly:

[tex]P(\frac{57-90}{12}\leq z\leq \frac{105-90}{12})[/tex] which simplifies to

[tex]P(-2.75\leq z\leq 1.25)[/tex] and we will break them up into 2 different sets as follows:

P(-2.75 ≤ z ≤ 0) + P(0 ≤ z ≤ 1.25)

and based on the fact that z scores are given from 0 on up, we are going to convert the first one by using the logic that if z is greater than -2.75 but less than 0, by symmetry, z is greater than 0 but less than 2.75:

P(0 ≤ z ≤ 2.75) + P(0 ≤ z ≤ 1.25) and we go to the z-score table.

Locate 2.7 down along the left side and move over til you're under the .05; that gives us the z-score for 2.75 which is .4970. Do the same for 1.25 to get a z-score of .3944. Add them together to get a final z-score that covers the range of values for X:

.4970 + .3944 = 0.8914

The restrictions are x≠2,4,5

Step-by-step explanation:

First the denominators cannot be zero

x-2 ≠0  so x≠2

Then x-4 ≠0  so x≠4

Also, since we are dividing, when we flip the second expression, the numerator becomes the denominator, so it cannot be zero

2x-10≠0

x≠5

The restrictions are x≠2,4,5

Plz solve question 12

Answers

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for 12, we can use eliminate or substituion to solve our system of equations. Let's use elimination method.

[tex]\left \{ {{3f-2k=10} \atop {-3f-2k=14}} \right.[/tex]

Let's add the equations together. This way, 3f+(-3f)=0

[tex]-4k=24[/tex]                   [divide both sides by -4]

[tex]k=-6[/tex]

Now that we know k, we can plug it into either equation to find f.

[tex]3f-2(-6)=10[/tex]        [multiply]

[tex]3f+12=10[/tex]             [subtract both sides by 12]

[tex]3f=-2[/tex]                    [divide both sides by 3]

[tex]f=-\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Now that we have f and k, we know that C is the correct answer.
