Answer: 5.4545 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Acid solution required = 75% acid solution

Let the number of ounces of 20% acid solution required = s

Then total ounces acid required can be expressed as :

=0.20s + 0.90 x 20

= 0.20s + 18

While the total ounces required is :

s + 20

Hence, (total ounces of acid / total ounces) = 75% acid solution

= (0.2 + 18) / (s + 20) = 0.75

= 0.2s + 18 = 0.75( s + 20)

0.2s + 18 = 0.75s + 15

18 - 15 = 0.75s - 0.2s

0.55s = 3

S = 3 / 0.55

= 5.4545 ounces

Given the function f(x) = x3 + 2x2 − 3x − 5, what is resulting function when f(x) is shifted to the right 1 unit?
cluponka [151]
When shifted to the right 1 unit it would be:
f(x - 1) = (x - 1)^3 + 2(x - 1)^2 - 3(x - 1) - 5 
<span>= (x^3 - 3x^2 + 3x - 1) + 2(x^2 - 2x + 1) - 3(x - 1) - 5 </span>
<span>= x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x^2 + 3x - 4x - 3x - 1 + 2 + 3 - 5 </span>
<span>= x^3 - x^2 - 4x - 1 
</span>I hope this helps

Please help, would be greatful :)
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

x ≈ 31.0°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tanx = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{9}{15}, then

x = tan^{-1} (\frac{9}{15} ) ≈ 31.0° ( to 1 dec. place )

What are the solution(s) for the quadratic equation?
MariettaO [177]

Let's see

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x^2+12x+36=0

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x^2+6x+6x+36=0

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x(x+6)+6(x+6)=0

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail (x+6)(x+6)=0

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=-6
