how much water should be added to 5 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 20% solution?

thank you.

Answers

Answer 1

The amount of water that should be added to 5 gallons of 50% acid to get 20% solution is 7.5 gallons.

Word problems in mathematics requires crucial understanding and mathematical knowledge to be able to solve real life cases.

From the information given:

Let consider (x) to be the amount of water to be added 5 gallons of 50% acid solution will be = 5 × 0.5 = 2.5 gallons of acid in 50% solution.

The amount of water to be added can computed by using the relation:

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{2.5}{x+5} = 20\%}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{2.5= 0.2(x+5)}[/tex]

2.5 = 0.2x + 1

2.5 - 1 = 0.2x

1.5 = 0.2x

x = 1.5/0.2

x = 7.5

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

[tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Here [ a, b ] = [ 1, 3 ] , then

f(3) = 18 ← value of y when x = 3

f(1) = 2 ← value of y when x = 1

Then

average rate of change = [tex]\frac{18-2}{3-1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{2}[/tex] = 8 → B

It is known that the length of time that people wait for a city bus to arrive is right skewed with mean 6 minutes and standard deviation 4 minutes. A sample of 25 wait times is randomly selected. What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times

Answers

Answer:

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times is of 0.8 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30. Otherwise, the mean and the standard deviations holds, but the distribution will not be approximately normal.

Standard deviation 4 minutes.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 4[/tex]

A sample of 25 wait times is randomly selected.

This means that [tex]n = 25[/tex]

What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times?

[tex]s = \frac{4}{\sqrt{25}} = 0.8[/tex]

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times is of 0.8 minutes.

Alexandra is trying to factorise fully15y + 30. Rebecca says the answer is 3(5y + 10) Victoria says the answer is 5(3y + 6) Alexandra says both Rebecca and Victoria are incorrect, why?​

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They are not wrong exactly. Their answers are just incomplete. They did not take the factoring process to it's end.

Victoria could pull out another three.

Rebecca could pull out another five.

The answer is 15(y + 2)

Answer:

because:  3(5y + 10)=15y+30 (Distributive property between addition and multiplication )

the same we have  5(3y + 6)=15y+30

Step-by-step explanation:

For the following sequence determine the common difference (if it is an arithmetic sequence) or the common ratio (if it is a geometric sequence).

-7x + 8, -12x + 12, -17x + 16, . . .

Possible anwers:
-5x + 4
5x + 4
-5x - 4
5x-4

Answers

Answer:

The first one is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an arithmetic sequence. It has a common difference.

d = an - a_n-1

an = -12x + 12

a_n-1 = - 7x + 8

d = -12x + 12 - (-7x + 8)

d = -12x + 12 + 7x - 8

d = -5x + 4

Try  it. Let's try for the third term

-12x + 12 - 5x + 4

- 17x + 15 which is exactly what the third term is.

The Oxy coordinate plane for two parallel lines a and a' has the equations 2x - 3y-1 = 0 and 2x - 3y + 5 = 0. respectively. Which vector translation to convert a to a'

Answers

Answer:

Remember that a vector translation can be written as:

T(a, b)

And if we apply this to a random point, (x, y), the translation gives:

T(a, b)(x, y) = (x + a, y + b)

now, remember that a general line can be written as:

y = m*x + s

Then a point of that line can be written as: (x, m*x + s)

Then if we apply the translation to a point in the line, we get:

T(a, b)(x, m*x + s) = (x + a, m*x + s + b)

Here we have two lines:

2x - 3y - 1 = 0

2x - 3y + 5 = 0

First, let's rewrite both of these in the slope-intercept form:

y = (2/3)*x - 1/3

y = (2/3)*x + 5/3

Now let's assume that we apply a translation to the first line, that has points of the form (x,  (2/3)*x - 1/3), such that we want to get points of the form:

(x, (2/3)*x + 5/3).

Then we must have:

T(a, b)(x,  (2/3)*x - 1/3) = (x + a,  (2/3)*x - 1/3 + b) = (x, (2/3)*x + 5/3).

Then we need to solve:

(x + a,  (2/3)*x - 1/3 + b) = (x, (2/3)*x + 5/3).

This means that:

x + a = x

(2/3)*x - 1/3 + b = (2/3)*x + 5/3

From the first equation, we can see that a = 0

Now we can solve the second one to find the value of b.

(2/3)*x - 1/3 + b = (2/3)*x + 5/3

subtracting (2/3)*x in both sides, we get:

-1/3 + b = 5/3

b = 5/3 + 1/3

b = 6/3 = 2

b = 2

Then the vector translation is:

T(0, 2)

So it moves the whole line 2 units upwards.

Square 1 has an area of 24 square units. If square 2 is half the size, what is the ratio of the area of square 1 to square 2.

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to guess that 1/2 the size means the sides are 1/2 the size.

Square 1 has an area of 24. The sides are s, so the area is found by using s^2

The second square is made from sides that are 1/2 s

Area = 1/2 s * 1/2 s

Area = 1/4 s^2

Area 1 / area 2 = 24 / x^2 = s^2 / 1/4 s^2 =  1/0.25

A private and a public university are located in the same city. For the private university, 1046 alumni were surveyed and 643 said that they attended at least one class reunion. For the public university, 804 out of 1315 sampled alumni claimed they have attended at least one class reunion. Is the difference in the sample proportions statistically significant

Answers

Answer:

To find if the difference is statistically significant, we'll find the p-value and compare it to the significance level. If it's smaller, then it's significant.

Because the problem didn't state a specific significance level, I'm going to use the most common one p = 0.05.

On a graphing calculator, I conducted a 2-Proportion Z-test. It resulted in zTest_2Prop 643,1046,804,1315,0: stat.results and the p-value is shown as around 0.869485.

Set p₁ ≠ p₂ as we're trying to show that the two proportions are far in value, not whether one is greater/lesser than another.

Since 0.869 > 0.05, the difference in the sample proportions is not statistically significant.

Mrs. Santos is buying binders for the students in her class. She determined that 15 binders would cost $22.50.

Cost of Binders
On a coordinate plane, a graph titled Cost of Binders has number of binders on the x-axis and total cost in dollars on the y-axis. The line goes through points (0, 0) and (15, 22.5).

If all of the binders cost the same amount, which statement is true?
It will cost $12 for 18 binders.
It will cost $20 for 30 binders.
It will cost $42 for 28 binders.
It will cost $48 for 48 binders.

Answers

Answer:

It will cost $42 for 28 binders

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 15 binders = 22.50 dollars . We need to find the cost of 18, 30, 28, and 48 binders to figure out if they match up with the statements. One way to do this is to find the cost for one binder, and then multiply that by the number of binders to find the cost for a certain number of binders. For example, if one binder costs 2 dollars, five binders would cost 2 * 5 = 10 dollars.

To figure out how much one binder costs, we can use the division property of equality to divide both sides of our equation (15 binders = 22.50 dollars) by 15. We divide by 15 because anything divided by itself is equal to 1, and that would make it 1 binder = something dollars.

Applying this, we get

(15 binders)/15 = (22.5 dollars)/15

1 binder = 1.5 dollars

For 18 binders, this would cost 1.5 * 18 = 27 dollars. We know this because we add 1.5 dollars for each binder.

For 30 binders, this would cost 30*15=45 dollars

For 28 binders, this would cost 1.5 * 28 = 42 dollars

For 48 binders, this would cost 1.5*48 = 72 dollars

The only one that matches up is 28 binders for 42 dollars

$42 for 28 binders.

The area of the slice of pie that was cut, rounded to the nearest hundredth is 22.08 square feet.

The slice of pie will form a sector as shown;

The area of the slice of pie will be expressed as:

No the relation is not a function

Step-by-step explanation:

A function by definition will have a unique output for every input, so there should be no repeating outputs, however, the clinic cares for 2 legged animals (birds) as well as 4 legged animals (cats and dogs). With this being said, if a clinic has 2 animals(input), the amount of legs(output) could be 8 if two dogs, or it could be 4 if two birds, or even six if a dog and bird.

If this were a function, the clinic would undeniably have different amounts of legs having two animals opposed to one animal, but this isn't true. if the clinic has 2 birds(input), there'd be 4 legs(output). but the clinic would also have 4 legs(output) if it had 1 dog(input). the output is the same for two different inputs

This shows the output is varying depending on the type of animal since the amount of legs changes, rather than the amount of animals.
