<u>ANSWER: </u>

170 liters of 10% hydrochloric acid must be mixed with 1700 liters of 65% hydrochloric acid solution to obtain 1870 liters of 60% solution.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

First, set up a table. Fill in the unknowns with variables x and y. The table is attached below

From this, we can easily set up the two equations.  

Sum of values of two acids = Value of mixture  

0.1x + 0.65y = 1122  

For convenience, we'll multiply the entire equation by 100,

10x + 65y = 112200   ------ (1)  

Now, Sum of amounts of each acid = Amount of mixture  

x + y = 1870  ---------(2)

multiply (2) with 10 for easy calculation and derive the equation into one variable.

10x + 10y = 18700  

Subtracting equation (2) from (1),  

( + ) 10x + 65y = 112200

( − ) 10x + 10y = 18700

we get the solution as,

0 + 55y = 93500

Thus, 55y = 93500

y = 1700

Substituting y = 1700 in (2),

x + 1700 = 1870  

x  = 1870 - 1700  

x  = 170  

So, we have x = 170 and y = 1700

We can conclude that 170 liters of 10% hydrochloric acid must be mixed with 1700 liters of 65% hydrochloric acid solution  to obtain 1870 liters of 60% solution.

Given that a function, h, has a domain of -3 ≤ x ≤ 11 and a range of 1 ≤ h(x) ≤ 25 and that h(8) = 19 and h(-2) = 2, select the
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Option D. h(2) = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Verify each statement

case A) h(8) = 21

The statement is false

Because

we know that

h(8)=19 -----> given value

and

If h(8) = 21  then f(x) is not a function

case B) h(13) = 18

The statement is false

Because x=13 not belong to the domain of the function

case C) h(-3) = -1

The statement is false

Because

x=-3 belong to the domain

but

h(-3)=-1   not belong to the range of the function

case D) h(2) = 16

The statement could be true

Because

x=2 ----> belong to the domain of the function

h(2)=16 ----> belong to the range of the function
