A 7% acid solution will be mixed with a 15% acid solution. 20 L of a 12% acid solution needs to be made.

a) Use the varialbes defined in part a to create a system of linear equations that models the given situation. SHOW YOUR WORK .

b) How many litres of each solution are needed? SHOW YOUR WORK *

c) Verify the solution. SHOW YOUR WORK *​

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r = amount of the 7% solution

y represent the amount of the 15 percent solution

.07r + .15 y = (r+y) .12

r+y = 20

y = 20-r

.07r + .15 (20-r) = (20) .12

0.07r+0.15(20-r)=2.4

.07r+ 3 - .15r = 2.4

-.08r = 2.4-3

-.08r = -.6

Divide by-.08

r =7.5 Liters of the 7%

y = 20-7.5

y = 12.5 L of 12%

Check

.07 *7.5 + .15 (12.5) =20*.12

.525+1.875=2.4

2.4=2.4

Read the following scenario, which is represented by a polynomial expression. Then answer the questions to interpret the parts of the expression in terms of the given context.

The volunteers at a high school football team’s concession stand are trying to decide on the price of the hot dogs they are selling. When they charge $2 for a hot dog, they sell an average of 70 hot dogs per game. With every $1 increase in the price, the number of hot dogs sold per game decreases by 8.

The volunteers can calculate the revenue earned from selling the hot dogs at each game using the expression -8x2 + 54x + 140, where x is the number of $1 increases in price.

Part A
What is the constant term in the polynomial expression, and what does it represent?

Answers

Answer:

x is the number of $1 increase in the price.

If there is no increase, then the total money earned is

2 × 70 = 140

If there is $1 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 1) × [70 - 8(1)]

If there is $2 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 2) × [70 - 8(2)]

If we continue the pattern, for x times $1 increase, total money earned is

(2 + x)(70 - 8x) = -8x^{2} +54x+140−8x2+54x+140

If we substitute x = 0 in the above equation, we will get

the total money earned = $140.

It means if there is no increase, then the total money earned = 140.

Hence, 140 is the constant term and it represents that there is no increase in price.

The sides of a triangle are in the ratio of 4:5:7 and its perimeter is 64. Find its sides

Answers

Answer:

16,20,28

Step-by-step explanation:

64 /(4+5+7)

64/16= 4

sides of triangle=4×4 :5×4: 7×4

                         =16:20:28

Ratios are usually good to set up like this:
4x+7x+5x=64 in this case. 4x = the shortest side, 7x = the longest side, and 5x = the middle side. Then solve for x.
16x+64
x=4
Then plug 4 back in for x to see what the individual side lengths are.
4*4=16 for the shortest side.

A certain model of automobile has its gas mileage (in miles per gallon, or mpg) normally distributed, with a mean of 28 mpg and a standard deviation of 4 mpg. Find the probability that a car selected at random has the following gas mileages. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) less than 26 mpg (b) greater than 34 mpg (c) between 22 and 34 mpg

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are finding the probability, which is a percentage, of each of these intervals on our standard bell curve. In order to find this percentage, we need to find the z-score that provides this percentage. To find the z-score:

[tex]z=\frac{x_i-\bar{x}}{\sigma}[/tex] which is the number in question minus the mean, all divided by the standard deviation. We're first looking for the probability that the gas mileage on a certain model of car is less than 26 mpg.

To find this z-score:

[tex]z=\frac{26-28}{4}=-.5[/tex] Depending upon which table you look at for the z-score determines how you will find it. The z-score that measure from the value and to the left of it is what we need. This decimal is .3085375, or 30.8538%.

Onto b., which is for the percentage of cars that have gas mileage over 34 mpg. Find the z-score, and this time, we look to the right of the value for the percentage:

[tex]z=\frac{34-28}{4}=1.5[/tex] and to the right of 1.5 standard deviations we will find .0668072, or 6.68072%

Then finally c., which wants the probability that the gas mileage on one of these cars is greater than 22 but less than 34 mpg. To do this we have to find the z-scores of each and then do some subtracting. First the z-scores:

[tex]z=\frac{22-28}{4}=-1.5[/tex] The percentage of data that lies to the right of that z-score is .9331927

The z-score for the other value, 34, was already found as 1.5, having .0668072 of the data to the right of that z-score. We subtract the smaller from the larger to determine what's left in-between:

.9331972 - .0668072 = .86639, or as a percentage, 86.639% of the cars fall into this interval for gas mileage.

Of the travelers arriving at a small airport, 60% fly on major airlines, 20% fly on privately owned planes, and the remainder fly on commercially owned planes not belonging to a major airline. Of those traveling on major airlines, 50% are traveling for business reasons, whereas 70% of those arriving on private planes and 80% of those arriving on other commercially owned planes are traveling for business reasons. Suppose that we randomly select one person arriving at this airport.

What is the probability that the person
a. is traveling on business?
b. is traveling for business on a privately owned plane?
c. arrived on a privately owned plane, given that the person is traveling for business reasons?
d. is traveling on business, given that the person is flying on a commercially owned plane?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.55 = 55% probability that the person is traveling on business

b) 0.14 = 14% probability that the person is traveling for business on a privately owned plane.

c) 0.2545 = 25.45% probability that the person arrived on a privately owned plane, given that the person is traveling for business reasons.

d) 0.2 = 20% probability that the person is traveling on business, given that the person is flying on a commercially owned plane.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

Question a:

50% of 60%(major airlines)

70% of 20%(privately owned airplanes)

80% of 100 - (60+20) = 20%(comercially owned airplanes). So

[tex]p = 0.5*0.5 + 0.7*0.2 + 0.8*0.2 = 0.55[/tex]

0.55 = 55% probability that the person is traveling on business.

Question b:

70% of 20%, so:

[tex]p = 0.7*0.2 = 0.14[/tex]

0.14 = 14% probability that the person is traveling for business on a privately owned plane.

Question c:

Event A: Traveling for business reasons.

Event B: Privately owned plane.

0.55 = 55% probability that the person is traveling on business.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.55[/tex]

0.14 = 14% probability that the person is traveling for business on a privately owned plane.

This means that [tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.14[/tex]

Desired probability:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.14}{0.55} = 0.2545[/tex]

0.2545 = 25.45% probability that the person arrived on a privately owned plane, given that the person is traveling for business reasons.

Question d:

Event A: Commercially owned plane.

Event B: Business

80% of those arriving on other commercially owned planes are traveling for business reasons.

This means that:

[tex]P(B|A) = 0.2[/tex]

0.2 = 20% probability that the person is traveling on business, given that the person is flying on a commercially owned plane.

Answer:

  5i) f(x) = 3·13^x +5

  5ii) f(x) = -6·(1/2)^x +5

  6) f(x) = 3·8^x -1

  9a) (1, 0), (0, -3)

  9b) (2, 0), (0, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

5. The horizontal asymptote is y = c. To meet the requirements of the problem, you must choose c=5 and any other (non-zero) numbers for 'a' and 'b'. (You probably want 'b' to be positive, so as to avoid complex numbers.)

i) f(x) = 3·13^x +5

ii) f(x) = -6·(1/2)^x +5

__

6. You already know c=-1, so put x=0 in the equation and solve for 'a'. As in problem 5, 'b' can be any positive value.

  f(0) = 2 = a·b^0 -1

  3 = a

One possible function is ...

  f(x) = 3·8^x -1

__

9. The x-intercept is the value of x that makes y=0. We can solve for the general case:

  0 = a·b^x +c

  -c = a·b^x

  -c/a = b^x

Taking logarithms, we have ...

  log(-c/a) = x·log(b)

  [tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{\log\left(-\dfrac{c}{a}\right)}{\log(b)}=\log_b\left(-\dfrac{c}{a}\right)[/tex]

Of course, the y-intercept is (a+c), since the b-factor is 1 when x=0.

a) x-intercept: log2(6/3) = log2(2) = 1, or point (1, 0)

   y-intercept: 3-6 = -3, or point (0, -3)

b) x-intercept: log3(9/1) = log3(3^2) = 2, or point (2, 0)

  y-intercept: -1 +9 = 8, or point (0, 8)

_____

Additional comment

It is nice to be comfortable with logarithms. It can be helpful to remember that a logarithm is an exponent. Even so, you can solve the x-intercepts of problem 9 using the expression we had just before taking logarithms.

  a) 6/3 = 2^x   ⇒   2^1 = 2^x   ⇒   x=1

  b) -9/-1 = 3^x   ⇒   3^2 = 3^x   ⇒   x=2
