Answer:

The amount of acid in third container is =42%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , one container is filled with a mixture that is 30% acid a second container filled with a mixture that is 50% acid and the second container 50% larger than the first .

Let, the volume of first container is = x

Then , the volume of second container = (x+ x of 50%)

                                                                 = x + 0.5 x

                                                                 = 1.5 x

Therefore the amount of acid in first container =x \times \frac{30}{100} = 0.3 x

The amount of acid in second container =1.5x \times \frac{50}{100}  = 0.75x

Total amount of acid= 0.3x + 0.75x = 1.05 x

Total amount  of solution = x+1.5x = 2.5x

The amount of acid in third container is = \frac{1.05x}{2.5x} \times 100% %

                                                                     = 42%

Tiles (6" by 6") can be installed at the rate of 50 per worker hour. The floor of a large lobby area (80’ by 40’) is to be cover
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Tiles (6" by 6") can be installed at the rate of 50 per worker hour. Since the tile is a square, its area is

L^2 = 6^2 = 36 inches square

So in an hour, a worker installs 50 tiles whose area is 36 inches square. Total square meters installed per hour will be 50 × 36 = 1800 inches square per hour.

If three workers are assigned to this task, their work rate will be

1800 × 3 = 5400 inches square per hour.

The floor of a large lobby area (80’ by 40’) is to be covered with these tiles. We would convert from feet to inches.

1 foot = 12 inches

80 feet = 80 × 12 = 960 inches

40 feet = 40 × 12 = 480 inches

Area of the lobby = 90 × 480 = 460800 inches square.

If the 3 workers install 5400 inches square in 1 hour,

Then then they will install 460800 inches square in

460800/5400 = 85.33 hours

Converting to the nearest whole day, it becomes

85.33/24 = 3.55

Approximately 4 days

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

  $1025

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the 2-point form of the equation of a line to write a function that gives Justin's salary as a function of his sales.

We start with (sales, salary) = (400, 500) and (700, 575)

__

The 2-point form of the equation of a line is ...

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  salary = (575 -500)/(700 -400)(sales -400) +500

  salary = 75/300(sales -400) +500

For sales of 2500, this will be ...

  salary = (1/4)(2500 -400) +500 = (2100/4) +500 = 1025

Justin's salary after selling $2500 in merchandise is $1025.

H0 : μ = 24

H1 : μ < 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The claim or hypothesis to be tested in a statistical problem or analysis is the alternative hypothesis. This is usually the opposite of the Null hypothesis which is the usually the initial truth until there is significant evidence provided using statistical test to prove otherwise.

The null hypothesis, H0 in the scenario above is :

H0 : μ = 24 ( average battery life is 24 hours)

The alternative hypothesis is the claim, that is. The mean battery life not up to 24 hours ;

H1 : μ < 24

Solve for x in the diagram.
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

x° + 2x° + (x+10)° = 90°

3x° + x° + 10° = 90°

4x° + 10° = 90°

4x° = 90°-10°

4x° = 80°

x = 80/4

x = 20
