In the lab, Austin has two solutions that contain alcohol and is mixing them with each other. He uses 3 times as much Solution A

as Solution B. Solution A is 12% alcohol and Solution B is 20% alcohol. How many milliliters of Solution B does he use, if the resulting mixture has 244 milliliters of pure alcohol?

Austin uses 435.714 milliliters of solution B to get a resulting mixture that has 244 milliliters of pure alcohol.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Assume solution B has 1x ml of liquid in it. As solution A has three times that of solution B, it has 3x ml of liquid.

Step 2; In solution A there is 12% of alcohol and solution B has 20% alcohol. So alcohol content in solution A is 12% of 3x = 0.12 x 3x and the alcohol content in solution B is 20% of x= 0.20 x 1x.

Step 3; Use this formula

Concentration percent= \frac{(volume of solute)}{(volume of solution)} * 100

 here Volume of solute is the total of solution A and B= (0.12 x 3x) + (0.20 x 1x) which equals 0.56x. The volume of solution is 3x + 1x which equals 4x. Substituting numerator and denominators we get a volume of 14%.

Step 4;This 14% is the concentration of alcohol in the mixture of solution A and solution B which is given as 244 ml. If 14% is 244 ml then 100% equals 1742.857 milliliters. The total of solution A and B equal 4x which is 1742.857 milliliters. So we get solution A has 1307.1428 milliliters and solution B has 435.71428 milliliters of liquid.

What is the following quotient?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

B)  \sqrt{30}  - 3 \sqrt{2}  +  \sqrt{55}  -  \sqrt{33}  \div 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: First we have to get rid off the roots in the denominator.

To do that, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate of √5 + √3.

The conjugate of √5 + √3 is √5 - √3.

Now multiply given expression with √5 - √3

(√6 + √11)     (√5 - √3)

------------- x   -----------

(√5 + √3)        (√5 - √3)

Step 2: Multiply the numerators and the denominators.

√6√5 - √6√3 +√11√5 -√11√3

------------------------------------------

(√5)^2 - (√3)^2

Now let's simplify to get the answer.

√30-√18 +√55 - √33

-----------------------------

5 - 3

= √30 -3√2 +√55                                     [√18 = √9√2 = 3√2]

--------------------------

2      

The answer is  \sqrt{30}  - 3 \sqrt{2}  +  \sqrt{55}  -  \sqrt{33}  \div 2


Thank you.
