Answer:

30 gallons of 20% acid solution should be mixed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x gallons of a 20% acid solution was mixed with 30 gallons of a 40% solution, to obtain a mixture of 30% acid solution.

Therefore, final volume of the solution will be (x + 30) gallons.

Now concept to solve this question is

20%.(x) + 40%.(30) = 30%.(x + 30)

0.20(x) + 0.40(30) = 0.30(x + 30)

0.20x + 12 = 0.30x + 9

0.30x - 0.20x = 12 - 9

.10x = 3

x = \frac{3}{0.1}

x = 30 gallons

Therefore, 30 gallons of the 20% acid solution should be mixed.

The equation of the line that contains diagonal HM is y = 2/3 x + 7.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The slope of the line that contains diagonal OE will be = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given the equation of the line that contains diagonal HM is y = 2/3 x + 7

y = 2/3 x + 7

comparing the equation with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

Thus, slope = m = 2/3

  • We know that the diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other.

As we have to determine the slope of the line that contains diagonal OE.

As the slope of the line that contains diagonal HM = 2/3

We also know that a line perpendicular to another line contains a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line.

Therefore, the slope of the line that contains diagonal

OE will be = -1/m = -1/(2/3) = -3/2

Hence, the slope of the line that contains diagonal OE will be = -3/2

galben [10]

Answer:

D 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the lengths of the segments of one chord equal the product of the segments of the other.

x*4 = 6*8

4x = 48

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = 48/4

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8760 hours in a year, and at a rate of 0.6 orbits per hour you can find how many orbits there are per year by multiplying the rate and time like this

8760 x 0.6

This gives us an answer of 5256 which is the number of orbits per year
