How many liters of a 10% alcohol solution must be mixed with 90 liters of a 60% solution to get a 30% solution?

Since 10% = 0.10 by moving the decimal two spots to the left, we can say that 0.10L is the amount of alcohol with 10% concentration in L liters. Similarly, 0.60L is 60% for L liters and 0.30L is the amount of liters with 30%. If the amount of 10% alcohol solution in liters is x and the 60% in y, we get 0.10x+0.60y=0.30L due to that the liters add up to get a 30% amount of alcohol (this equation represents the amount of alcohol). Next, x+y=L. Since we know that we have 90 liters of 0.60, y=90 and we have 
0.10x+54=0.30L 
x+90=L. Plugging x+90 for L, we get 0.10x+54=0.3(x+90)=0.3x+27. Subtracting 27 and 0.1x from both sides, we get 0.2x=27. Next, we can multiply both sides by 5 (since 1/0.2=5) to get x=135 liters

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the point (-1, -3) and has a slope of 4?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

\displaystyle y + 3 = 4(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Point-Slope Formula [<em>y</em> - <em>y</em>₁ = <em>m</em>(<em>x</em> - <em>x</em>₁)], all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so be EXTREMELY CAREFUL inserting the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT SIGNS.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Over which interval is the graph of the parent absolute value function f(x)=|x| decreasing?
pogonyaev

Answer:

(–∞, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the absolute value parent function f(x) = |x| is shown in the attached diagram.

We can clearly see that from -∞ to 0, the function is decreasing and from 0 to +∞, it is increasing. This is the basic, parent absolute value function.

THe questions asks, when is it decreasing, so clearly, it is from -∞ to 0.

This is the answer.

A point that has a positive x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate is located in which quadrant?
zhuklara [117]
Quadrant I or QI

This is tough to explain but here I go
If x and y is positive, it's QI
If x is negative and y is positive it's QII
If x and y are negative, it's QIII
If x is positive and y is negative It's QIV

So the answer is C
Hopes this helps :D
