How many L of a 10% alcohol solution must be mixed with 9l of a 80% alcohol solution to make a 55% solution

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The best thing to do for these solution/mixture problems is to make a table:

                          #L           *           %alcohol         =            L alcohol

    10% sol.

+   80% sol.                                                                                            

    55% sol.  

In this way, we can keep track of our information AND figure out the equation we need to use to solve it. Notice first, the equation along the top of the table:

#L * %alcohol = L alcohol  This tells us that we are multiplying the #L column times the %alcohol column to get the L alcohol column. Notice second, that there is a + sign to the far left, indicating that we are ADDING rows 1 and 2 together to get the mix. Let's start filling this in. The easy part is the % alcohol column. 10% alcohol has .10 alcohol as a decimal, likewise for the 80% and 55%:

                          #L             *            %alcohol          =         L alcohol

   10% sol.                                             .10

+  80% sol.                                            .80               =                          

   55% sol.                                            .55

Now to fill in the first column. We know that our unknown, from the problem, is the number of Liters, #L in the 10% solution, so that is x, and we also know that we have 9 L of the 80% alcohol. Filling that in:

                             #L            *             %alcohol           =         L alcohol

  10% sol.                x            *                .10

+ 80% sol.               9           *                 .80                                                

  55%                                                      .55

Now look back at the + sign. We are told that we are mixing the 10% with the 80%, so we are adding them together. So let's do that. We will also follow the rule for the table and multiply the first column times the second column to fill in the last column to complete the table:

                          #L           *             %alcohol            =              L alcohol

   10% sol.           x            *                 .10                  =                 .10x

+  80% sol.          9           *                 .80                  =                  7.2          

  55% sol.      (9 + x)         *                 .55                  =         .55x + 4.95

If we add the 2 solutions together to get the new solution in the first column, we will also add the L alcohol in the last column to get our equation:

.10x + 7.2 = .55x + 4.95 and

- .45x = - 2.25 so

x = 5L

We need 5 Liters of the 10% solution if we want to mix that with 9L of 80% solution to get 14 L of 55% solution.

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equatio 2x - 5 = - 3x ^ 2

Answers

alright I can help!

so to find the two values of x that are roots of the equation we need to put the variables all on one side so that we can set up the quadratic formula.

3x^2+2x-5=0 (the -3x^2 becomes positive when moved across the equal sign)

now we can set up the quadratic formula. the equation is x= (-b+-(sqrt of b^2 -4ac))/ 2a

so now we just plug in our variables.

x= (-2+-(sqrt of 2^2 -4×3×-5))/ 2×3

x= (-2+-8)/6

now we just seperate the equations so that we have the two roots. and then just solve!

x= (-2-8)/6 -> x= -5/3

x= (-2+8)/6 -> x=1

hope this helps! best wishes and best of luck!!

There is 10% salt solution and a 30% salt solution. How much of each is needed to make 10L mixture that is 25% salt solution?

Answers

Answer:

2.5L of 10% salt solution and 7.5L of the 30% salt solution

Step-by-step explanation:

let the amount of L in the 10% solution be 'x'

let the amount of L in the 30% solution be '10-x'

* because they add up to a total of 10L

10%(x) + 30%(10-x) = 25%(10)

0.1x + 3 - 0.3x = 2.5

-0.2x = -0.5

x = 2.5

x =2.5

10-x = 7.5

2.5 of 10% solution and 7.5% of 30% solution

Find m/ELM if m/ELM = 15x - 1, m/KLE = 20°, and m/KLM = 17x - 1.​

Answers

Answer:

∠ ELM = 149°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ KLM = ∠ KLE + ∠ ELM  , substitute values

17x - 1 = 20 + 15x - 1

17x - 1 = 15x + 19 ( subtract 15x from both sides )

2x - 1 = 19 ( add 1 to both sides  )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10

Then

∠ ELM = 15x - 1 = 15(10) - 1 = 150 - 1 = 149°



The perimeter of a rectangle is 56 feet and
its area is 192 square feet. What are the
dimensions of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2(L + W)

Area = L*W

Area = 192

(L + W)*2 = 56

L+W = 28

L = 28 - W

W*(28 - W) = 192

28W - w^2 = 92

-w^2 + 28w - 192 = 0

w^2 - 28w + 192  = 0

This factors into

(w - 12)(w - 16) = 0

w - 12 = 0

w = 12

L = 28 - 12 = 16

Answers

The image of this question is missing and so i have attached it.

Answer:

dd/dt = 4.47 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image attached, let's denote the following;

d = horizontal distance beneath pulley

h = height of pulley

l = diagonal from the pulley to the head of the person

v = velocity of rope rising

Using pythagoras theorem;

l² = d² + h²

Differentiating with respect to time and considering h = c^(te) gives;

2l(dl/dt) = 2d(dd/dt)

We are given;

d = 20 ft

h = 10 ft

v = 4 ft/s

We know that velocity in this case is change in diagonal distance with time. Thus;

v = dl/dt = 4 ft/s

From earlier, we saw that;

2l(dl/dt) = 2d(dd/dt)

Thus, reducing it gives

(dl/dt)(l/d) = dd/dt

Now, l² = d² + h²

l = √(d² + h²)

Also, v = dl/dt = 4

Thus;

4(√(d² + h²))/d = dd/dt

4(√(20² + 10²))/20 = dd/dt

dd/dt = 4.47 ft/s

What are the solutions to the system of equations?

{y=2x²−6x+3
{y=x−2

Answers

Answer:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

We can obtain the solutions to the equation as follow:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

Substitute the value of y in equation 2 into equation 1

y = 2x² − 6x + 3

y = x − 2

2x² − 6x + 3 = x − 2

Rearrange

2x² − 6x − x + 3 + 2 = 0

2x² − 7x + 5 = 0

Solve by factorization

Obtain the product of 2x² and 5. The result is 10x².

Find two factors of 10x² such that their sum will result to −7x.

The factors are −2x and −5x.

Replace −7x in the equation above with −2x and −5x as shown below:

2x² − 2x − 5x + 5 = 0

2x(x − 1) − 5(x − 1) = 0

(x − 1)(2x − 5) = 0

x − 1 = 0 or 2x − 5 = 0

x = 1 or 2x = 5

x = 1 or x = 5/2

Substitute the value of x into equation 2 to obtain y

y = x − 2

x = 1

y = 1 − 2

y = −1

x = 5/2

y = x − 2

y = 5/2 − 2

y = (5 − 4)/2

y = 1/2

Which answer option below describes the best way to increase the accuracy of aconfidence interval calculation? Assume the existence of a Building class. Define a derived class, ApartmentBuilding that contains four (4) data members: an integer named numFloors, an integer named unitsPerFloor, a boolean named hasElevator, and a boolean named hasCentralAir. There is a constructor containing parameters for the initialization of the above variables (in the same order as they appear above). There are also two function: the first, getTotalUnits, accepts no parameters and returns the total number of units in the building; the second, isLuxuryBuilding accepts no parameters and returns true if the building has central air, an elevator and 2 or less units per floor. A 1030 kg car has four 12.0 kg wheels. When the car is moving, what fraction of the total kinetic energy of the car is due to rotation of the wheels about their axles What might happen to the genes that break down carbohydrates when cats eat lipids and fats, but no carbohydrates? a triangle has sides of 6 m 8 m and 11 m is it a right-angled triangle?
