Answer 1

Answer:

40 liters of 30% solution.

20 liters of 60% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = amount of 30% solution.

Let y = amount of 60% solution.

Equation of amounts of solutions.

x + y = 60

Equation of amounts of alcohol in the solutions.

0.3x + 0.6y = 0.4 × 60

x = 60 - y

0.3(60 - y) + 0.6y = 24

18 - 0.3y + 0.6y = 24

0.3y = 6

y = 20

x + y = 60

x + 20 = 60

x = 40

Answer:

40 liters of 30% solution.

20 liters of 60% solution.

Answer 2

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

The number of liters of the 30% solution and the number of liters of the 60% solution to mix to make the 40% solution is 40 liters and 20 liters.

What is an equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Example:

2x + 4 = 7 is an equation.

We have,

Let 30% solution = m

Let 60% solution = n

Now,

A scientist needs 60 liters of a 40% solution of alcohol.

He has a 30% solution and a 60% solution available.

This means,

m + n = 60 _____(1)

30% of m + 60% of n = 40% of 60

0.30m + 0.60n = 0.40 x 60

0.30m + 0.60n = 24 ____(2)

From (1) and (2) we get,

m + n = 60

m = 60 - n _____(3)

Putting (3) in (2) we get,

0.30m + 0.60n = 24

0.30(60 - n) + 0.60n = 24

18 - 0.30n + 0.60n = 24

18 + 0.30n = 24

0.30n = 24 - 18

0.30n = 6

n = 6/0.30

n = 20

Putting n = 20 in (3) we get,

m = 60 - 20

m = 40

Now,

The number of liters of the 30% solution is 40.

The number of liters of the 60% solution is 20.

Thus,

The number of liters of the 30% solution and the number of liters of the 60% solution to mix to make the 40% solution is 40 liters and 20 liters.

The length of a rectangular poster is 5 more inches than half its width. The area of the poster is 12 square inches. Solve for the dimensions (length and width) of the poster.

Answers

The dimensions (length and width) of the poster are 6 inches and 2 inches

How to determine the dimensions (length and width) of the poster?

Represent the length with x and the width with y

From the question, we have the following parameters

x = 5 + 0.5y

Area, A = 12

The area of a rectangle is represented as:

A = xy

Substitute the known values in the above equation

(5 + 0.5y) * y = 12

Expand the bracket

5y + 0.5y^2 = 12

Multiply through by 2

10y + y^2 = 24

Rewrite as:

y^2 + 10y - 24 = 0

Expand

y^2 + 12y - 2y - 24 = 0

Factorize the expression

(y - 2)(y + 12) = 0

Solve for y

y = 2 or y = -12

The dimension cannot be negative.

So, we have

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 in x = 5 + 0.5y

x = 5 + 0.5 * 2

Evaluate

x = 6

Hence, the dimensions (length and width) of the poster are 6 inches and 2 inches

Answers

If we compare the given values then we can find that the database B is more likely to have smaller standard deviation.

Given that the values in database A are 0 from 100 and has mean of 50 and Database B has entries from 49 to 51 and also has mean of 50.

We are required to find the database whose standard deviation is lower.

Standard deviation measures the variation of values. It is calculated after finding mean. The square of a standard deviation is known as variance.

Database A has values from 0 to 100 and has mean of 50. Because the values are somewhat very larger than 50 and in database B has values from 49 to 51,there are more chances that the standard deviation of database B will have smaller value than from standard deviation of database A.

Hence if we compare the given values then we can find that the database B is more likely to have smaller standard deviation.

Peter and Blair recently reviewed their future retirement income and expense projections. They hope to retire in 29 years and anticipate they will need funding for an additional 20 years. They determined that they would have a retirement income of $54,000 in today's dollars, but they would actually need $75,017 in retirement income to meet all of their objectives. Calculate the total amount that Peter and Blair must save if they wish to completely fund their income shortfall, assuming a 2 percent inflation rate and a return of 6

Answers

Based on the number of years that Peter and Blair have till retirement, the total amount that they need to save to completely fund their income shortfall is $65,545.72.

What amount do Peter and Blair need to save?

First, find the income shortfall:

= 75,017 - 54,000

= $21,017

The amount they need to save to cover this shortfall is the future value of this amount at retirement. The rate will be the real rate which is:

= 6% - 2% inflation

= 4%

The future value is:

= Income shortfall x future value interest factor, 4%, 29 years

= 21,017 x 3.1187

X+2y=5 and 4x-12y=-20 solve using elimination and substitution

Answers

Answer:

(1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution:

x + 2y = 5  Solve for x

x = -2y + 5  Substitute -2y + 5 in for x in the second equation

4x - 12y = -20

4(-2y + 5) - 12y = -20  Distribute the 4

-8y + 20 - 12 y = -20  Combine the y term

-20y + 20 = -20  Subtract 20 from both sides

-20y = -40  Divide both sides by -20

y = 2

Plug y into either of the 2 original equations to get x.

x + 2y = 5

x + 2(2) = 5

x + 4 = 5

x = 1

The answer is (2,1).

Elimination:

x + 2y = 5      4x - 12y = -20.  We want to eliminate with the x or the y.  I am going to eliminate the x's that means that I have to multiply the first equation all the way through by -4

(-4)(x + 2y) = (5) (-4)  That makes the equivalent expression

-4x - 8y = -20  I will add that to 4x - 12y = -20

4x - 12y = -20

0x -20y = -40

-20y = -40

y = 2.  Plug 2 into either the 2 original equation to find x.  This time I will select the second original equation to find x.

4x -12y = -20

4x - 12(2) = -20

4x - 24 = -20

4x = 4

x = 1

Answers

The equation that represents the distance, in kilometers, Seb travels (d) based on how many hours he bikes (t) at this rate is d = 20t

1. Write an equation that represents the distance, in kilometers, Seb travels (d) based on how many hours he bikes (t) at this rate.

The given parameter is

constant rate of 20 kilometers per hour.

This means that

Rate = 20km per hour

When Seb bikes for t hours, the distance is

d = rate * t

This gives

d = 20t

Hence, the equation that represents the distance, in kilometers, Seb travels (d) based on how many hours he bikes (t) at this rate is d = 20t

How far will Seb travel if he bikes at this rate for 2.5 point, 5 hours?

This means that

Angle 19 + Angle 20 = 180

So Angle 20 = 180 - Angle 19

As l and m are parallel, Angle 20 = Angle 6 from the z rule

So Angle 6 = 180 - Angle 19

Substitute the information given at the start into the equation

2x - 4 = 180 - (5x - 8)

180 - 5x + 8 = 2x - 4

7x = 192

x = 27.42

From what we have found earlier, Angle 20 = Angle 6 so

Angle 20 = 2x - 4 = 2 * 27.42 - 4 = 50.85 rounding it to 50.9

So the answer is 50.9 or Choice 3

According to the adjustable-rate mortgage The new monthly payment in year 8 of the loan is $1292.

According o the statement

we have given that the

Remy obtains a 30-year mortgage in the amount of $625,000 And

She secures a 7/1 ARM at an initial interest rate of 3%. Her initial monthly payment is $2,635.03.

And we have to find the new monthly payment when its interest rate increased to the 4.925%.

So, For this purpose we know that the

An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is a loan with an interest rate that changes.

The amount in which she bought mortgage = 625,000

Interest rate = 3%

Initial amount = 2635.03

From this it clear that the

The amount she pays in 7 years = 2635.03*7

The amount she pays in 7 years = 18445.21

The left amount = 625,000 - 18445.21

The left amount = 606554

It means the rate of interest increased on the amount 606554$

So, According to the 4.925% interest the monthly payment will become

amount on interest rate 4.925% = 4.925% *606554/23 years

amount on interest rate 4.925% = $1292.

So, According to the adjustable-rate mortgage The new monthly payment in year 8 of the loan is $1292.

6. The weight of an orange is 1 unit, the weight of an apple is 5 units, and the weight of a banana is 2 units.

7. x = 3.

1. Solving linear equations:

(a) 3x - 7 = 9 - x,

or, 3x + x = 9 + 7,

or, 4x = 16,

or, x = 16/4 = 4.

Thus, x = 4.

(b) (7 - 2r)/3 = 4r,

or, 7 - 2r = 3*4r = 12r,

or, -2r - 12r = -7,

or, -14r = -7,

or, r = -7/-14 = 1/2.

Thus, r = 1/2.

2. Proportion:

(a) x and y directly proportion, means x/y = constant.

When x = 8, y = 20.

Thus, x/y = constant, or, 8/20 = constant, or, constant = 0.4.

When x = 40,

x/y = 0.4,

or, y = x/0.4 = 40/0.4 = 100.

Thus, when x = 40, y = 100.

(b) x and y indirectly proportion, means xy = constant.

When x = 8, y = 20.

Thus, xy = constant, or, 8*20 = constant, or, constant = 160.

When x = 40,

xy = 160,

or, 40y = 160,

or, y = 160/40 = 4.

Thus, when x = 40, y = 4.

3. System of equations:

(a) r - s = 5 ...(i)

3r - 5s = 9 ... (ii)

3*(i) - (ii) gives:

3r - 3s = 15

3r - 5s = 9

(-) (+)    (-)

_________

2s = 6,

or, s = 3.

Substituting in (i), we get

r - s = 5,

or, r - 3 = 5,

or, r = 8.

Thus, r = 8, s = 3.

(b) 3p + 7q = 1 ...(i).

5p = 14q + 53,

or, 5p - 14q = 53 ...(ii).

2*(i) + (ii) gives:

6p + 14q = 2

5p - 14q = 53

____________

11p = 55,

or, p = 5.

Substituting in (i), we get:

3p + 7q = 1,

or, 3*5 + 7q = 1,

or, 7q = 1 - 15 = -14,

or, q = -14/7 = -2.

Thus, p = 5, q = -2.

4. Graphing lines:

(a) Slope of the line through (3, 4) and (-1, 3) is,

m = (4 - 3)/(3 - (-1)),

or, m = 1/4.

Thus, the slope of the line through (3, 4) and (-1, 3) is 1/4.

(b) The graph given: 3x - 4y = 7.

Representing in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, gives:

3x - 4y = 7,

or, 4y = 3x - 7,

or, y = (3/4)x + (-7/4).

Thus, the slope of the line 3x - 4y = 7 is 3/4.

(c) Slope of the line through (5, -2) and (-1, 6) is,

m = (6 - (-2))/(-1 - 5),

or, m = 8/(-6) = -4/3.

Substituting m = -4/3 in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, gives:

y = (-4/3)x + b.

Substituting y = 6, and x = -1 gives:

6 = (-4/3)(-1) + b,

or, b = 6 - 4/3 = 14/3.

Thus, the slope-intercept form of the line through (5, -2) and (-1, 6) is y = (-4/3)x + 14/3.

5. Introductory quadratics:

(a) 4x² = 81,

or, 4x² - 81 = 0,

or (2x)² - 9² = 0,

or, (2x + 9)(2x - 9) = 0.

Either, 2x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = -9/2,

or, 2x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9/2.

Thus, the solutions to the equation 4x² = 81 are -9/2, and 9/2.

(b) x² + 8x + 12 = 0,

or, x² + 2x + 6x + 12 = 0,

or, x(x + 2) + 6(x + 2) = 0,

or, (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0.

Either, x + 6 = 0 ⇒ x = -6,

or, x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = -2.

Thus, the solutions to the equation x² + 8x + 12 are -6, and -2.

(c) x² - 3x - 88 = 0,

or, x² - 11x + 8x - 88 = 0,

or, x(x - 11) + 8(x - 11) = 0,

or, (x + 8)(x - 11) = 0.

Either, x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = -8,

or, x - 11 = 0 ⇒ x = 11.

Thus, the solutions to the equation x² - 3x - 88 are -8, and 11.

6. We assume the weight of one orange, one apple, and one banana to be x, y, and z units respectively.

Thus, we have:

3x + 2y + z = 15 ... (i)

5x + 7y + 2z = 44 ... (ii)

x + 3y + 5z = 26 ... (iii)

2(i) - (ii) gives:

6x + 4y + 2z = 30

5x + 7y + 2z = 44

(-)  (-)  (-)        (-)

______________

x - 3y = -14 ... (iv)

15x + 10y + 5z = 75

x + 3y + 5z = 26

(-) (-) (-)          (-)

________________

14x + 7y = 49 ... (v)

14(iv) - (v) gives:

14x - 42y = -196

14x + 7y = 49

(-)    (-)     (-)

_____________

-49y = -245,

or, y = 5.

Substituting in (v), we get:

14x + 7y = 49,

or, 14x + 35 = 49,

or, x = 14/14 = 1.

Substituting x = 1 and y = 5 in (i), we get:

3x + 2y + z = 15,

or, 3 + 10 + z = 15,

or, z = 2.

Thus, the weight of an orange is 1 unit, the weight of an apple is 5 units, and the weight of a banana is 2 units.

7. 3/(1 - (2/x)) = 3x,

or, 3/((x - 2)/x) = 3x,

or, 3x/(x - 2) = 3x,

or, 3x = 3x(x - 2),

or, 3x = 3x² - 6x,

or, 3x² - 9x = 0,

or, 3x(x - 3) = 0.

Either, 3x = 0 ⇒ x = 0,

or, x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3.

Since we had a term 2/x, x cannot be 0.

Thus, x = 3.

Quadratic Equations

Quadratic equations represent any equation that can be rearranged in standard forma (ax² + bx + c( =0(a, b & c) are known.

Quadratic equations can always be solved using the quadratic formula, but sometimes factoring or isolating the variable is also posible.

In the square equation ax² + bx + c = 0

a = 1 b = 5 c = 2

[tex]\boldsymbol{\sf{x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} \ ,\Delta=b^{2}-4ac } }[/tex]

Let's calculate the discriminant of the quadratic equation:

∆ = b² - 4ac = 5² - 4 1 2 = 25 - 8 = 17

Since the discriminant is greater than zero, then the quadratic equation has two real roots.

[tex]\boldsymbol{\sf{x_{1}=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta} }{ 2\cdot a}=\dfrac{-5-\sqrt{17} }{2\cdot1} }}[/tex]

[tex]\boldsymbol{\sf{x_{2}=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta} }{ 2\cdot a}=\dfrac{-5+\sqrt{17} }{2\cdot1} }}[/tex]

The property has 67 feet of frontage on one sidewalk, and 48 feet of frontage on another; these two sidewalks intersect at a 72° angle. What is the square footage of the cheetahs' habitat? Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

1529.3 square unit is the area of the cheetah area at a zoo is designed in a triangular fashion, surrounded on all three sides by sidewalks, given that the property has 67 feet of frontage on one sidewalk, and 48 feet of frontage on another; these two sidewalks intersect at a 72° angle. This can obtained by using the formula of Area of a Triangle with 2 Sides and Included Angle.

Find the area of the cheetah area at the zoo:

Area of a triangle is obtained using the formula of Area of a Triangle with 2 Sides and Included Angle.

If in a triangle ΔABC,

1/2 × bc × sin(A), if b and c are two sides of a triangle and angle A is the included angle1/2 × ac × sin(B), if a and c are two sides of a triangle and angle B is the included angle1/2 × ab × sin(C), if a and b are two sides of a triangle and angle C is the included angle

Here it is given that,

67 feet and 48 feet are the sides of the triangular space and angle 72° is the included angle.

By using the formula of Area of a Triangle with 2 Sides and Included Angle,

Area of the cheetah area = 1/2 × bc × sin(A)

Area of the cheetah area = 1/2 × (67)(48) × sin(72°)

sin(72°) = 0.951056516

Area of the cheetah area = 1608 × 0.951056516

Area of the cheetah area = 1529.29888 ≈ 1529.3 square unit

             

Hence 1529.3 square unit is the area of the cheetah area at a zoo is designed in a triangular fashion, surrounded on all three sides by sidewalks, given that the property has 67 feet of frontage on one sidewalk, and 48 feet of frontage on another; these two sidewalks intersect at a 72° angle.
