7) (Extra Credit) A chemist needs to mix a 12 % solution with a 20% solution to obtain 180 ounces of a 15% solution. How many ounces of each of the solutions must be used? 12%________ 20%__________

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of 12%

Let y be the amount of 20%

x + y = 180

x = 180 - y

x(0.12) + y(0.20) = 180(0.15)

(180 - y)(0.12) + y(0.20) = 27

(180)(0.12) - 0.12y + 0.20y = 27

21.6 + 0.08y = 27

0.08y = 5.4

y = 67.5 oz of 20% solution

x = 180 - 67.5 = 112.5 oz of 12% solution

Max and Toni’s flower bed is rectangular in shape. The length of the garden is 4 feet more than its width and the area of the flower bed is 96 square feet. If x represents the width of the flower bed, find the length and width of the old flower bed. Solve the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula. (20 points)

Answers

Answer: Width = 8ft, Length = 12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

irst, let'Fs express the width of the garden as w (the unknown that we are trying to solve), since the length is 4 feet longer than it's width, we can express this as 4+w. Since the flowerbed is rectangular, the formula for the area is A=lw where l is it's length and w is it's width, replacing l with 4+w, then replace A for 96 sq.ft and we can begin solving for the unknown w. Multiplying 4+w and w, using the distributive property where a(b+c)=ab+ac, we will wind up with w^2 + 4w = 96, subtracting 96 and moving it to the other side, we end up with w^2 + 4w -96 = 0, now let's use the quadratic formula for the x intercepts where [tex]x = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex] , remember the quadratic equation has the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex], therefore our a value is 1, our b value is 4, and our c value is -96 (remember to put that negative!), we will get 2 answers, 8 and -12, a negative width is unreasonable and so 8 is the correct width, and since the length is 4 extra feet, this makes the length 12 feet for a total area of 96 feet. hope this helps! Its helpful to draw and visualize the problem!

it is predicted that by 2050 there will be 10^10 people living on earth. approximatrly will be 10^12 trees. how many trees for each person?


Answers

Interesting question. Does that mean near the end of humanity?

Solution 1:

10^10 = 1,000,000,000

10^12 = 100,000,000,000

100,000,000,000/1,000,000,000 = 100 trees per person

Solution 2:

10^12 / 10^10  ---  10^10 / 10^10

10^2/1 = 10^2 = 100 trees per person

Two trains travelling along parallel tracks in the same direction do 50 km/h and 100 km/h on average. The faster train starts 2 hours later than the slower. After how many kilometres will the faster train catch up?​

Answers

Answer:

200 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the faster train catches the slower one after x hours.

The distance the trains travel is same:

50(x + 2) = 100x50x + 100 = 100x50x = 100x = 2

The distance is:

50*(2 + 2) = 100*2 = 200 km

ANSWER USING STEPS: find the inverse function of y=-5x-7

Answers

the inverse of y is =x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

y=5x-7

then solve for x

5x=y+7

x=(y+7)/5

then exchange x with y

y=(x+7)/5

The inverse of the given function is expressed as:

-(x + 7)/5

How to find the inverse of the function?

The given function is expressed as:

y = -5x - 7

Replacing y with x and vice versa gives us:

x = -5y - 7

Add 7 to both sides gives:

x + 7 = -5y

divide both sides by -5 gives us:

-(x + 7)/5 = y

Thus, we conclude that the inverse of the given function is expressed as:

-(x + 7)/5

In the function y=f(x), y varies inversely with the square of x and when x=4, y=1/2. Find y when x=1.

Answers

ok so

y= 4/3x2

Y varies inversely with square of x means

y = k (1/x²) where k is the constant

plug in y =1/3 and x = - 2 in the above equation.

1/3=k (1/{-2}²)

1/3=k (1/4)

multiply with 4 to both sides.

4/3 =k

therefore,

y=4/3 (1/x²) = 4/3x²

a. $86,500
b. $101,300
c. $94,300
d. $1,238,800

Answers

Cost is 65x + 3500 where x is = 326.

65(326) + 3500

21,190 + 3500 = $24,690 is the cost.

Revenue is 365x where x is 326.

365(326) = $118,990

Now we subtract the two:

118,990 - 24,690 = $94,300

This means that the answer is C) $94,300.
