Answer:

897 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

The motor oil is composed of 8 liters of natural oil and 5 liters of synthetic oil. This means there is a ratio of 8/5. We have 552 liters of natural oil to y liters of synthetic. This is the ratio 552/y. Create a proportion that compares the two ratios.

\frac{8}{5}=\frac{552}{y}

Solve by cross multiplying.

8y = 5(552)

8y = 2,760

y= 345

345 liters of synthetic oil.

Together 552+345= 897 liters of motor oil.

Without using a trigonometric ratio, find the distance from the ship to the buoy, B. Round the distance to the nearest tenth of
alexdok [17]
Without using the trigonometry ratio, we can find the distance between the ship and the buoy by:

the distance between City and Lemont SUBTRACT the vertical distance between City and the point parallel to the Ship

The distance between the City and Lemont can be worked out using the Sin rule 
\frac{57.8}{sin(36)}= \frac{City-Lemont}{sin(92)}
City-Lemont= \frac{57.9sin(92)}{sin(36)} = 98.27.....≈98.3

The vertical distance between the City and the point parallel to the ship can be worked out using the Pythagoras theorem
\sqrt{57.8^{2}- 44.6^{2} } =36.765...≈36.8

The distance between the ship and the Buoy is given:
98.3-36.8=61.5 miles

Mathematically derive a set of values for b and c such that the interval [0, 10] represents the solution to the inequality |x−b|
Roman55 [17]

Answer: Ix - 5I ≥ 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the set:

[0, 10]

to be the solution of:

Ix - bI ≤ c

So we need to find the values of c and b.

The first step is to find the middle point in our segment.

We can do that by adding the extremes and dividing it by 2.

M = (10 + 0)/2 = 5

And we also want to find half of the difference between the extremes, this is:

D = (10 - 0)/2 = 5.

Now, this set will be the set of solutions of:

Ix - MI ≥ D

Then in our case, we have:

Ix - 5I ≥ 5.

so we have that b = 5, and c = 5.

How to solve: 2y+21=3y+1
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

y=20

Step-by-step explanation:

2y+21 = 3y+1

Subtract 2y from both sides,

21 = 3y-2y +1

Subtract 1 from both sides,

y = 20
