Answer:

5/7 quart

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount = concentration × volume

Amounts added = final amount

100% × x + 20% × 5 = 30% × (x+5)

Solving for x:

1.00x + 0.2×5 = 0.3×(x+5)

x + 1 = 0.3x + 1.5

0.7x = 0.5

x = 5/7

x ≈ 0.7

You should add 5/7 quart of pure antifreeze, or about 0.7 quart.

Answer:

  • 4x² - 13x + 8 = 0
  • 4x² - 11x + 5 = 0
  • 16x² - 41x + 1 = 0
  • x² + 5x + 4 = 0
  • x² - 66x + 64 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • α and β are roots of 4x²-5x-1=0

<u>Then the sum and product of the roots are:</u>

  • α+b = -(-5)/4 = 5/4
  • αβ = -1/4

(i) <u>Roots are α + 1 and β + 1, then we have:</u>

  • (x - (α + 1))(x - (β + 1)) = 0
  • (x - α - 1)(x - β - 1) = 0
  • x² - (α+β+2)x + α+β+ αβ + 1 = 0
  • x² - (5/4+2)x +5/4 - 1/4 + 1 = 0
  • x² - 13/4x + 2= 0
  • 4x² - 13x + 8 = 0

(ii) <u>Roots are 2 - α and 2 - β, then we have:</u>

  • (x + α - 2)(x + β - 2) = 0
  • x² + (a + β - 4)x - 2(α + β) + αβ + 4 = 0
  • x² + (5/4 - 4)x - 2(5/4) - 1/4 + 4 = 0
  • x² - 11/4x - 10/4 - 1/4 + 16/4 = 0
  • x² - 11/4x + 5/4x = 0
  • 4x² - 11x + 5 = 0

(iii) <u>Roots are α² and β², then:</u>

  • (x - α²)(x-β²) = 0
  • x² -(α²+β²)x + (αβ)² = 0
  • x² - ((α+β)² - 2αβ)x + (-1/4)² = 0
  • x² - ((5/4)² -2(-1/4))x + 1/16 = 0
  • x² - ( 25/16 + 1/2)x + 1/16 = 0
  • x² - 33/16x + 1/16 = 0
  • 16x² - 33x + 1 = 0

(iv) <u>Roots are 1/α and 1/β, then:</u>

  • (x - 1/α)(x - 1/β) = 0
  • x² - (1/α+1/β)x + 1/αβ = 0
  • x² - ((α+β)/αβ)x + 1/αβ = 0
  • x² - (5/4)/(-1/4)x - 1/(-1/4) = 0
  • x² + 5x + 4 = 0

(v) <u>Roots are 2/α² and 2/β², then:</u>

  • (x - 2/α²)(x - 2/β²) = 0
  • x² - (2/α² + 2/β²)x + 4/(αβ)² = 0
  • x² - 2((α+β)² - 2αβ)/(αβ)²)x + 4/(αβ)² = 0
  • x² - 2((5/4)² - 2(-1/4))/(-1/4)²x + 4/(-1/4)² = 0
  • x² - 2(25/16 + 8/16)/(1/16)x + 4(16) = 0
  • x² - 2(33)x + 64 = 0
  • x² - 66x + 64 = 0

Here is a right angled triangle work out the value of x using trigonometry
Zolol [24]

~~~~~\sin 30^{\circ} = \dfrac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Hypotenuse} }\\\\\\\implies \dfrac 12 = \dfrac{8}x\\\\\\\implies x =  8\cdot2\\\\\\\implies x = 16 ~ \text{cm.}

Whats 0.55% as a mixed number and a decimal?
xxTIMURxx [149]
Mixed number is a natural number plus a proper fraction
a mixed number, is normally more than 1

anyway
percent means parstt out of 100
0.55%=0.55/100=0.055/10=0.0055/1=0.0055

it is 55/10000 as a fraction or 0 and 55/10000 aas a mixed number
decimal it is 0.0055

Which of the following lists all of the positive factors of 18?
babymother [125]

The square root of 18 is 4.2426, rounded down to the closest whole number is 4. Testing the integer values 1 through 4 for division into 18 with a 0 remainder we get these factor pairs: (1 and 18), (2 and 9), (3 and 6). The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18.
