In order to determine the probability that the coin chosen is a dime, determine first the total number of sample coins. In this problem, there are 52 coins all in all. Next, divide the number of dimes in the sample with the total number of coins. This gives us 10/52. Simplifying the fraction further yields to 5/26. Thus, the probability that the coin chosen is dime is 5/26. The answer is letter c.

A tank initially contains 60 gallons of brine, with 30 pounds of salt in solution. Pure water runs into the tank at 3 gallons pe
adoni [48]

Answer:

the amount of time until 23 pounds of salt remain in the tank is 0.088 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variation of the concentration of salt can be expressed as:

\frac{dC}{dt}=Ci*Qi-Co*Qo

being

C1: the concentration of salt in the inflow

Qi: the flow entering the tank

C2: the concentration leaving the tank (the same concentration that is in every part of the tank at that moment)

Qo: the flow going out of the tank.

With no salt in the inflow (C1=0), the equation can be reduced to

\frac{dC}{dt}=-Co*Qo

Rearranging the equation, it becomes

\frac{dC}{C}=-Qo*dt

Integrating both sides

\int\frac{dC}{C}=\int-Qo*dt\\ln(\abs{C})+x1=-Qo*t+x2\\ln(\abs{C})=-Qo*t+x\\C=exp^{-Qo*t+x}

It is known that the concentration at t=0 is 30 pounds in 60 gallons, so C(0) is 0.5 pounds/gallon.

C(0)=exp^{-Qo*0+x}=0.5\\exp^{x} =0.5\\x=ln(0.5)=-0.693\\

The final equation for the concentration of salt at any given time is

C=exp^{-3*t-0.693}

To answer how long it will be until there are 23 pounds of salt in the tank, we can use the last equation:

C=exp^{-3*t-0.693}\\(23/60)=exp^{-3*t-0.693}\\ln(23/60)=-3*t-0.693\\t=-\frac{ln(23/60)+0.693}{3}=-\frac{-0.959+0.693}{3}=  -\frac{-0.266}{3}=0.088

a jug holds 4 quarts How many liters of milk dose the jug hold ? round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a liter 1 L=1.06
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Please read the explanation to clarify.

Step-by-step explanation:

What you would have to do is multiply 1.06 by 4 to get 4.24. However, if you search up the exact conversion on g00gle, "how many liters are in 4 quarts?", you get the exact number of 3.78541, which can be rounded to 3.78. I believe if this is more of an exam thing, you should go with the first answer I gave, 4.24, and show how you multiplied to show your work. However, if you would like to use the second answer, it is completely up to you. Either way,  I hope this helped, and if you have any further questions please don't hesitate to let me know. :)
