A certain drug is made from only two ingredients: compound A and compound B. There are 5 milliliters of compound A used for ever

y 7 milliliters of compound B. If a chemist wants to make 684 milliliters of the drug, how many milliliters of compound A are needed?

A/B = 5/7

Where 5 mm of A per 7mm of B. That should be the equation.

Given that the total mm is 684
A + B = 684
A = 5/7 * B

5/7 B + B = 684
B=400
A = 5/7 * 400 = 285mm

A = 285mm

There are 5 milliliters of compound A for every 7 milliliters of compound B.

So the ration between compound A and B will be:

A:B = 5:7

Total amount of drug = 684

Therefore, the amount of drug A needed will be:

\frac{5}{5+7}*684  \\  \\ 
= \frac{5}{12}*684  \\  \\ 
=285

Therefore, out of 684 milliliters 285 would be the compound A and the rest would be compound B

State the domain, the range, and the intervals on which function is increasing, decreasing, or constant in interval notation
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Domain: [-1,\infty)

Range: (-\infty, 3]

Decreases over: (-1,-\infty)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = -\sqrt{x + 1} + 3 --- Missing from the question

Solving (a): The domain

To get the domain, the expression under the square root must not be negative.

In other words:

x + 1 \ge 0

Solve for x

x + 1 -1\ge 0-1

x \ge -1

Hence, the domain is:

[-1,\infty)

To get the range, we plot the values of the domain in the expression.

x = -1

f(x) = -\sqrt{x + 1} + 3

f(-1) = -\sqrt{-1+1} +3

f(-1) = -\sqrt{0} +3

f(-1) = -0 +3

f(-1) = 3

x = \infty

f(\infty) = -\sqrt{\infty +1}+3

f(\infty) = -\sqrt{\infty}+3

f(\infty) = -\infty+3

f(\infty) = -\infty

So, the range is: (-\infty, 3]

To get the interval where the function increases or not, we simply plot the graph of f(x).

See attachment for graph.

From the attachment, it will be observed that the graph of f(x) continuously decreases from x = -1, and it never increased.

This implies that, the graph decreases over the interval (-1,-\infty)

What is the answer to
azamat

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

lets rewrite the equations so that the x and y are on one side and the constant on the other.

2y-x=3

-y+x=0

(we can cancel out the x because one is positive and one is negative)

y=3

(now plug the y value into any equation you want to)

-(3)+x=0

x=3

so our values are

x=3,y=3

How does the volume of a cylinder change when its diameter is quadrupled?
gogolik [260]
If the radius of a cylinder is x, and the height is y, then the volume of the cylinder will be x²yπ. If every thing is quadrupled then it will be 4x and 4y, Therefore it will become (4x)²4yπ. This simplifies to 16x²4yπ, and then even further to 64x²y<span>π. Excluding the 64, that is the same as the original equation, so we now know that the coefficient of volume increase is 64, so the volume is 64 times greater. By the way, if you know the scale factor of change, the volume change will always be the scale factor change cubed. For area, or surface area it will be the scale factor squared. I hope this helps.</span>

Solve the equation for x, where x is a real number (5 points):
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Subtract sqrt(3) to both sides so that the equation becomes -3x^2 + 7x + 2 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                             x = [-b ± √(b^2 -4ac) ] / (2a)
                             x = [ -7 ± √((7)^2 - 4(-3)(2)) ] / ( 2(-3) )
                             x = [-7 ± √(49 - (-24) ) ] / ( -6 )
                             x = [-7 ± √(73) ] / ( -6)
                             x = [-7 ± sqrt(73) ] / ( -6 )
                             x = 7/6 ± -sqrt(73)/6
The answers are 7/6 + sqrt(73)/6 and 7/6 - sqrt(73)/6.
