Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The zero (root) of a function is any value of the variable that will produce an answer of zero. Graphically, the real zero of a function is where the graph of the function crosses the x-axis.
~~~~~~~~~
f(x) = x³ + 3x² - x - 3
f(-3) = ( - 3 )³ + 3( - 3 )² - ( - 3 ) - 3 = 0
f(-1) = ( - 1 )³ + 3( - 1 )² - ( - 1 ) - 3 = 0
f(1) = ( 1 )² + 3( 1 )² - ( 1 ) - 3 = 0
8 litres (amount of 20% solution needed) and 7 litres for (amount of 50% solution needed)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let consider ‘x’ for 20% acid solution and (15 – x) for 50% acid solution. And so, the equation would be as below,
20% in x + 50% in (15 – x) = 15 litres of 34%
Convert percentage values, we get
0.20(x) + 0.50 (15 – x) = 15 (0.34)
0.20 x + 7.5 – 0.50 x = 5.1
-0.3 x + 7.5 = 5.1
0.3 x = 7.5 – 5.1
0.3 x = 2.4
Apply ‘x = 8’ value in (15 – x) we get,
15 – 8 = 7 litres
The value of 7 litres for (amount of 50% solution needed)
