how many grams each of a 10% salt solution and a 5% salt solution must be mixed in order to obtain 400g of an 8% solution?

Answers

Answer 1

I dont want to give you the exact equation so u wont be copying- here is an example.

let x=grams of salt that you already have

let y=grams of salt that need to be added

let z=total amount of salt in the solution after adding salt

We know that salt makes up 25% of the 400g solution, and that 25% can also be written as .25. Thus, we can write an equation to determine x's value:

x=.25*400g

x=100g

Therefore, there are 100 grams of salt already in the solution.

Now that we've determined x's value, we'll bring z into the equation. There are two ways to calculate z. z is equivalent to the sum of x and y. Remember, x is equal to 100 grams. So, z's equation is as follows:

z=100g+y

The other way to calculate z is as a percentage of the final solution. As the question states, we want the final solution to have a salt content of 40% (which we can write as .40). The final amount of solution can be written as below:

400g+y=total amount of solution after adding salt.

This is because we are adding y (the amount of salt needed to bring the salt content to 40 percent)to the amount of solution which we already have.

Therefore, the second way to express z is below:

z=.40*(400g+y)

After we have two equations for z, we can set them equal to each other as follows:

100g+y=.40*(400g+y)

We then can distribute the .40 over the parenthesis.

100g+y=160g+.40y

And then we can subtract 100 grams from both sides of the equation.

y=60g+.40y

Next, we subtract .40 y from both sides of the equation to get y on one side.

.6y=60g

Finally, we can divide both sides by .6 to isolate y.

y=100g

Therefore, you must add 100g of salt to the solution to make it 40 percent salt.

Answers

Answer:

2x+2(x+5)) = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+ 2(x+5) = 24

x is represented by the shorter side. Multiply by 2 because of the 2 sides. For the longer side, since it is 5m longer than the shorter side, you have to write (x+5). Multiply by 2 because of the 2 sides. Finally, add them both together since it is the area and set it equal to 24.

Credit is described as the amount that has been added to a specific account.

Easy-access credit is defined as the credit that is granted for an extremely short period of time and for such loans, the interests are extremely high.

While the open credit keeps the amount lent on repeat which is set at a particular limit(maximum).

Close-end credit in which the amount remains specified initially while it is being lent.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, read this explanation of how to understand probability numbers.

A probability number is a number from 0 to 1. It can be written as a decimal, a fraction, or a percent, but it must be from 0 to 1. The numbers 0, 25%, 1/3, 0.75 are all examples of probabilities since they are all from 0 to 1. 25% is the same as 0.25; 1/3 is the same as 0.333... All probabilities are expressed as 0, 1, or a number in between 0 and 1.

A probability of 0 means the event will not happen. It is an impossibility.

A probability of 1 or 100% is a sure thing it will happen. It is certain it will happen.

A probability of 50% or 0.5 or 1/2 means it is as likely to happen as it is not to happen.

A probability of between 0 and 0.5 is more likely not to happen than to happen.

A probability of between 0.5 and 1 is more likely to happen than to not happen.

Now let's look at each one of the probabilities in your problem.

1. 1/4

1/4 is the same as 0.25 which is between 0 and 0.5. It is more likely to not happen.

1. b. Unlikely

2. 0.0

0.0 will definitely not happen.

2. e. Impossible

3. 0.50

0.50 can just as easily happen or not happen.

3. d. Equally Likely

4. 100%

100% is the same as 1. A probability of 1 means an event that is certain to happen.

4. a. Certain

5. 75/100

75/100 is the same as 3/4 and 0.75; 0.75 is between 0.5 and 1, so it is more likely to happen than to not happen.

5. c. Likely

Secant R L intersects the circle at some point. The measure of arc between this point and point K is 102 degrees. Point P lies on secant R D.

We have,

In the given figure, we have a circle with points P, K, L, H, and D on it. Secant RL and secant KH intersect inside the circle, forming an angle with a measure of 92 degrees.

Secant DR and secant LR intersect outside the circle at point R, forming an angle DRL with a measure of 38 degrees.

The intercepted arc closest to angle DRL has a measure of 18 degrees.

Since secant RL intersects the circle at some point, we can consider the arc between that point and point K.

The measure of this arc is given as 102 degrees.

Therefore,

The measure of arc HD, which represents the arc between points H and D, is also 102 degrees.

Tennis great Roger Federer made 63% of his first serves in a recent season. When Federer made his first serve, he won 78% of the points. When Federer missed his first serve and had to serve again, he won only 57% of the points. Suppose you randomly choose a point on which Federer served. You get distracted before seeing his first serve but look up in time to see Federer win the point. What's the probability that he missed his first serve?

Answers

Sounds like a Bayes Theorem problem.

Events:

F: Roger makes his first serve.  We'll write ~F for "not F".

P(F) = .63

P(~F) = 1 - .63 = .37

W: Roger wins the point.  We don't know P(W) but we are given

P(W | F) = .78

P(W | ~F) = .57

We're asked for

P(~F | W)

The basic conditional probability theorem is

P(~F and W) = P(~F | W) P(W) = P(W | ~F) P(~F)

P(~F | W) = ( P(W | ~F) P(~F) ) / P(W)

We write

P(W) =  P(W | F) P(F) +  P(W | ~F) P(~F)

Substituting gives Bayes' Theorem:

P(~F | W) = ( P(W | ~F) P(~F) ) / ( P(W | F) P(F) +  P(W | ~F) P(~F) )

We know all the parts so we substitute,

P(~F|W) = ( .57(.37) ) / (.78(.63) + .57(.37) ) = 0.30029901751388294

Let's call that 30%

Answer: 30%

Answer:

0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to reverse this because we only know the outcome. P(A|B) = P(B|A) * P(A) / P(B), so P(B|A) is B given that A happens, P(A) in this case is the probability that he missed the first serve. P(B) is the probability of winning the point. P(B) = P(B|A') * P(A') + P(B|A) * P(A), which means P(B) is the probability  of the point scored given that the serve was made multiplied by the probability of the serve being made plus the probability of B given that serve is missed multiplied by the probability that the serve is missed. This is 57% * 37% + 78% * 63%=0.21+0.49=0.7. So P(B)=0.7. P(B|A)*P(A)/P(B) would be 57% * 37% / 70% = 0.3. The probability that Federer missed his first serve given that he scored the point is 0.3.
