For an experiment, Sandra needs 20 grams of a 26% solution of salt. She has two large bottles of salt water: one contains a 20% solution, and the other contains 35% solution. How much of each must she use to make the solution she needs?

Answers

Answer 1

The amount of grams that she must use to make the solution she needs are: 12 grams and 8 grams.

Amount of grams

x grams of 20% and 20-x grams of 35%

Hence:

0.20x+0.35(20-x)=0.26×20

0.20x-0.35x+7=5.2

Collect like terms

-0.15x=-1.80

Divide both side by -0.15x

x=-1.80/-0.15

x=12 grams of 20% or 2.4 grams pure

20-x= (20-12) =8 grams of 35% or 2.8 grams pure

Therefore the amount of grams that she must use to make the solution she needs are: 12 grams and 8 grams.

Each section of a spinner is labeled with a unique number and is the same size and shape as the other sections. the spinner is spun two times. the number of possible outcomes is 16. how many sections is the spinner divided into? 2 4 8 16

Answers

By counting the total number of outcomes, we conclude that the spinner has 4 sections.

How many sections does the spinner has?

Let's say that the spinner has N sections.

If we spin it twice, for the first outcome we have N possible outcomes and for the second spin there are N possible outcomes.

Then for the experiment of spinning the spinner twice, the number of outcomes is:

O = N*N

And we know that the number of possible outcomes for spinning the spinner twice is 16, then we have:

16 = N*N = N^2

Solving for N, we have:

N = √16 = 4

Then we conclude that the spinner has 4 sections.

A high school track coach wanted to test whether giving the students an energy drink could affect performance during the 100 meter race. The coach split the 18 boys into two equal sized groups, where Group 1 was given the energy drink and Group 2 was not. The 100 meter race times were recorded during practice and shown in the table below. What inference can be made about the results?

Answers

Based on the difference in the observed means given, we can infer that energy drink does indeed have an effect on performance.

Can the energy drink affect performance?

First find the observed mean difference:

= 11.6 - 10.8

= 0.8 seconds

When the exercise is done only once, we see that on average, those who took the energy drink were faster and so finished earlier than those who didn't.

We can therefore infer that the energy drink has an effect on performance.

What is division of line?

When a point lies on the line such that is gets divided into the ratio is said to be the division of line.

The coordinates of point can be find out by the following formula.

x = mx₂ +nx₁ / m+n   and y = my₂ +ny₁ / m+n

For, Point C(-3.6, -3.4) divides in the ratio 2 : 3.

Substituting the values, we get

-3.6 =  2x₂ +3x₁ / 2+3                 and           -3.4 = 2y₂ +3y₁ / 2+3

 2x₂ +3x₁ = -18                           and               2y₂ +3y₁ = -17

The above equations are satisfied by the points A(-2,-1) and B (-6,-7)

For, Point C(4, 1.6) divides in the ratio 3 : 2.

Substituting the values, we get

4 =  3x₂ +2x₁ / 2+3                     and           1.6 = 3y₂ +2y₁ / 2+3

3x₂ +2x₁ = 20                          and               3y₂ +2y₁ = 8

The above equations are not satisfied by any of the points.

For, Point C(3.5, -2.5) divides in the ratio 1 : 7.

Substituting the values, we get

3.5 =  1x₂ +7x₁ / 1+7                     and           1.6 = y₂ +7y₁ /1+7  

x₂ +7x₁ = 28                          and                y₂ +7y₁ = -20

The above equations are not satisfied by any of the points.

For, Point C(8, 9) divides in the ratio 5 : 3.

Substituting the values, we get

8 =  5x₂ +3x₁ /5+3                    and           9 = 5y₂ +3y₁ /5+3  

 5x₂ +3x₁ =64                          and                5y₂ +3y₁ = 72

The above equations are satisfied by the points A (3,4) and B(11, 12).

For, Point C(-2, 5) divides in the ratio 2 : 6.

Substituting the values, we get

-2 =  2x₂ +6x₁ /2+6                    and           5 = 2y₂ +6y₁ /2+6  

 2x₂ +6x₁  =-16                          and                2y₂ +6y₁ = 40

The above equations are satisfied by the points A (-5,2) and B(7,14).

For, Point C(0,1) divides in the ratio 4 : 7.

Substituting the values, we get

0 =  4x₂ +7x₁ /4+7                   and           1= 4y₂ +7y₁ /4+7  

 4x₂ +7x₁  = 0                      and                4y₂ +7y₁ = 11

Find an equation of the tangent to the curve at the point corresponding to the given value of the parameter. X = t5 1, y = t6 t; t = −1

Answers

The equation of the tangent to the curve at the point corresponding to the given value of the parameter will be x + y = c.

How to calculate the tangent of the parameter curves at a point?

The curves are given below.

x = t⁵ + 1 and y = t⁶ + t

Then differentiate the functions with respect to t, then we have

[tex]\rm \dfrac{dx}{dt} = 5t^4\\[/tex]   ...1

and

[tex]\rm \dfrac{dy}{dt} = 6t^5 + 1[/tex]   ...2

Divide equation 2 by equation 1, then we have

[tex]\rm \dfrac{\dfrac{dy}{dt} }{\dfrac{dx}{dt} } = \dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{6t^5 + 1}{5t^4}[/tex]

Then the slope of the equation at t = −1, then we have

dy/dx = [6(-1)⁵ + 1]/[5(-1)⁴]

dy/dx = (-6+1)/5

dy/dx = -5/5

dy/dx = -1

Then the equation of the tangent line will be

y = -x + c

x + y = c

Where c is a constant.

Are the equations 6x-6=3x and x-1=3x equivalent?​

Answers

Answer:

No, they aren't the same (equivalent).

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for both equations:

Equation #1:  6x-6=3x

Simplifying

6x + -6 = 3x

Reorder the terms:

-6 + 6x = 3x

Solving

-6 + 6x = 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

-6 + 6x + -3x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 6x + -3x = 3x

-6 + 3x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

-6 + 3x = 0

Add '6' to each side of the equation.

-6 + 6 + 3x = 0 + 6

Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0

0 + 3x = 0 + 6

3x = 0 + 6

Combine like terms: 0 + 6 = 6

3x = 6

Divide each side by '3'.

x = 2

Simplifying

x = 2

Equation #2: x-1=3x

Simplifying

x + -1 = 3x

Reorder the terms:

-1 + x = 3x

Solving

-1 + x = 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

-1 + x + -3x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: x + -3x = -2x

-1 + -2x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

-1 + -2x = 0

Add '1' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 1 + -2x = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0

0 + -2x = 0 + 1

-2x = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1

-2x = 1

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = -0.5

x = -0.5

Toby has $70 saved.He is saving $15 more each week.In how many weeks will he have $280 saved to buy the new skateboard he wants?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create and equation to display this situation. Toby already has $70 saved, so that is not the variable and no x should go next to it. He is saving $15 more each week. Lastly, we want to end up with $280 saved. The equation will look like this, given the information:

15x + 70 = 280

To find how many weeks it will take, solve the equation!

15x = 210            Subtract 70 from 280

x = 14                  Divide 210 by 15

Therefore, it will take Toby 14 weeks to save up for a new skateboard.
