A scientist makes an acid solution by adding drops of acid to 1.2 L of water. The final volume of the acid solution is 1.202 L.

Assuming the volume of each drop is 0.05​ mL, how many drops were added to the​ water? About what percent of the acid solution is​ acid?
Find the number of drops of acid that were added to the solution.

Answer:

40 drops

Approximately 0.166 %

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be easier to work the same units for volume

Since there are 1000 ml in a liter

Original water volume 1.2 L = 1.2 x 1000 = 1200 mLl

The final volume of the acid-water solution = 1.202 L = 1202 mL

So total volume of acid added = 1202-1200 = 2 mL

Each drop of acid is 0.05 mL

Number of drops added = 2/.05 = 40 drops

Percent of acid in acid solution = (Volume of acid added)/(Final volume) x 100 = (2/1202) ≈ 0.00166 x 100 ≈ 0.166 %

(10x - 4)=20<br> Question: What value of x makes the equation true
liraira [26]

Answer:

x = 10.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply each side by 5 to remove it as a fraction

2. it cancels out on the left leaving 10x - 4 = 100

3. Add 4 to each side canceling it out on the left and leaving 10x = 104

4. Divide each side by 10 to get x by itself

5. 10x/100 = 104/10

6. x = 10.4

Problem 5.A miner is trapped inside a mine and has access to 3 doors. The first door leads to a tunneland can take him to safety
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Expected time is 15 hours for him to get to safety.

Step-by-step explanation:

We define X as the time that this miner would get to safety.

We define Y as the door he chooses initially.

P(Y= 1) = P(Y=2)=P(Y=3) = 1/3

We have E[X|Y=1] = 3

E[X|Y] = 5 hours + E[X}

E[X|Y] = 7 hours + E[X]

Then we have

E[X] = 1/3(3 + 5 + E[X] + 7 + E[X])

We cross multiply

3*E[X] = (15 + 2E[x])

3E[X] - 2E[X] = 15

E[X] = 15

So the time it would take to get him to safety is 15 hours

Expand the following 5(2x-4)
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

x= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5*2= 10 then add the x at the end

5*4=20

then you divide both sides by 10

(10x/10)- (20/10)

x= 2

or if your rewriting it then:

(5*2x)- (5*4)=?

Hope this helped :D
