If the alcohol is absolute alcohol to make 1 gallon (4 quarts), then mix in 3 quarts water and 1 quart alcohol.

However, most of the time, alcohol comes in 96.5% alcohol, then we will define x=volume of alcohol in gal, then 1-x=volume of water, and solve following equation for x:
0.965x+(1-x)*0=0.25
x=0.25*0.965=0.259 gal
will need 0.259 gal of 96.5% alcohol and 0.741 gal. of water.

Noah and Lin are each trying to solve the equation x² - 6x + 10 = 0. They know that the solutions to x² = - 1 are i and -i, but

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Solving the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ we get $x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$

Step-by-step explanation:

Noah's step to solve the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ are:

$x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0\\x^2 - 6x = -10\\x^2 - 6x + 9 = -10 + 9\\(x-3)^2 = -1$

The next step is to take square root on both sides because: $\sqrt{x^2}=x$

$\sqrt{(x-3)^2}=\sqrt{-1} \\x-3=\pm\sqrt{-1} \\x=\pm(\sqrt{-1})+3 \\$

Now, we know that: $\sqrt{-1}=i$

$x=\pm(i)+3\\x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$

So, Solving the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ we get $x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$

How can you use standard deviations to compare the spread of each data set?

ozzi

Calculate the standard deviation for each data set:

Sample A = 1.246

Sample B = 2.924

The smaller the deviation the closer the data set is, the larger the deviation the more widespread the data set is.

Sample B has a larger deviation so the spread of the data is wider.
