Answer:

  9.09 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The added water can be calculated by writing an equation for the amount of iodine in the diluted solution.

<h3>Setup</h3>

Let x represent the number of ounces of water added to the 60% solution. The total amount of iodine in the mixture is ...

  0.60(100) +0(x) = 0.55(100+x) . . . . . ounces of iodine in the mix

<h3>Solution</h3>

Simplify the equation:

  60 = 55 +0.55x

  5 = 0.55x . . . . . . . subtract 55

  x = 5/0.55 ≈ 9.09

9.09 ounces of pure water must be added to produce a 55% solution.

If there are 4 trucks then the first truck weighs x
then x+2tons
then x+4tons
then x+6tons = 32tons
so 4x+12=32
         -12   -12
     /4         /4
x=5 
so plug it back in 
truck 1= 5tons or 10,000lbs
truck 2= 7tons or 14,000lbs
truck 3= 9tons or 18,000lbs
truck 4= 11tons or 22,000lbs

Answer:

A. The y-intercept of g(x) is less than the y-intercept of f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept, or when x = 0, of f(x) is -4, the x-intercept of g(x) is -8, so g(x) are neither greater nor equal to f(x), this marks out C and D. The y-intercept, or when y = 0, is in this case f(x) or g(x). The y-intercept of f(x) is 16, the y-intercept of g(x) is 4, so the y-intercept of g(x) is not equal to the y-intercept of f(x), this marks out B. Now to check A, 4 < 16, so y-intercept of g(x) < y-intercept of f(x), the answer is A
