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.

Two sides of a triangle have measures 3 ft. and 6 ft. Also, these sides form a vertex whose angle measures 60 degrees. Calculate
Tanya [424]

Answer:

c² = 3² +6² - 2⋅3⋅6⋅cos 60

c = 27ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angle is located in  between the sides of the sides, we will use the cosine rule to get the unknown sides

Let c be the missing sides

According to the cosine rule;

c² = a²+ b² - 2abcosC

c² = 3² +6² - 2⋅3⋅6⋅cos 60

c² = 9 + 36 - 36cos60

c² = 45 - 36cos60

c² = 45 - 36(0.5)

c² = 45 - 18

c² = 27ft

Hence the missing attribute is 27ft and the required expression is c² = 3² +6² - 2⋅3⋅6⋅cos 60

What is the total volume of the snow used to make the snowman if the head is 12 inches wide, the middle is 16 inches wide, and t
Nutka1998 [239]
The snowman is made of 3 spheres (balls) of snow. The diameters, from top to bottom, are 12, 16, 18 inches
Therefore, the radii of the 3 spheres are, respectively, 6, 8, and 9 inches.

The volume of a sphere of radius, r, is given by the formula: V = 4/3 π r3
So, the total volume of snow is the sum of the 3 volumes: V = 4/3 π (63 + 83 + 93)
= 4/3 π (1,457)
=6,099.97
Your answer would be D. 6,099.97
I hope this helps!
