We have 89 ounces of 47% iodine.
We will add "x" ounces of 14% iodine to get a 29% iodine solution.
89 * .47 + .14x = .29 * (89 + x)
41.83 + .14x = 25.81 + .29x
16.02 = .15x
x = 106.80
So, we must add 106.80 ounces of 14% iodine to get a 29% iodine solution.
(for a total of 195.80 ounces)

Miguel and Maria are washing the windows in their home. Together, they can complete the task in 1.5 hours. If Maria can wash win

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.

x: amount of time Miguel uses to complete the task.

y: amount of time Maria uses to complete the task.

We write the system of equations:

x + y = 60

y = (1/2) x

Solving the system we have:

x = 40 minutes

y = 20 minutes

Answer:

The amount (in megawatts) of energy generated in a country from wind power can be modeled by the function W(t)equalsw0(1.90)

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$W(t)=W_0(1.90)^t$

Where t corresponds to the year 2000=0

a. $W(0)=2540MW$

Substitute the values

$2540\times 10^6=W_0(1.90)^0=W_0$

$W_0=2540MW$

b.In 2004

t=4

$W(4)=2540(1.90)^4$

$W(4)=33101.534 MW$

c.In 2013

t=13

$W(13)=2540(1.9)^{13}=10.68\times 10^6MW$

Unknown to a medical researcher, 6 out of 25 patients have a heart problem that will result in death if they receive the test dr

Fiesta28 [93]

Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0002 = 0.02% probability that exactly 6 patients will die.

<h3>What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

The values of the parameters for this problem are:

N = 25, k = 6, n = 8.

The probability that exactly 6 patients will die is P(X = 6), hence:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 6) = h(6,25,8,6) = \frac{C_{6,6}C_{19,2}}{C_{25,8}} = 0.0002$

0.0002 = 0.02% probability that exactly 6 patients will die.
