Answer:
4 liters of 60% solution; 2 liters of 30% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to use a simple, but effective, tool for most mixture problems. It is a kind of "X" diagram as in the attachment.
The ratios of solution concentrations are 3:6:5, so I've used those numbers in the diagram. The constituent solutions are on the left; the desired mixture is in the middle, and the numbers on the other legs of the X are the differences along the diagonals: 6 - 5 = 1; 5 - 3 = 2. This tells you the ratio of 60% solution to 30% solution is 2 : 1.
These ratio units (2, 1) add to 3. We want 6 liters of mixture, so we need to multiply these ratio units by 2 liters to get the amounts of constituents needed. The result is 4 liters of 60% solution and 2 liters of 30% solution.

If you're writing equations, it often works well to let the variable represent the quantity of the greatest contributor—the 60% solution. Let the volume of that (in liters) be represented by v. Then the total volume of iodine in the mixture is ...
... 0.60·v + 0.30·(6 -v) = 0.50·6
... 0.30v = 0.20·6 . . . . subtract 0.30·6, collect terms
... v = 6·(0.20/0.30) = 4 . . . . divide by the coefficient of v
4 liters of 60% solution are needed. The other 2 liters are 30% solution.
Answer: The z-scores for a woman 6 feet tall is 2.96 and the z-scores for a a man 5'10" tall is 0.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y area the random variable that represents the heights of women and men.
Given : The heights of women aged 20 to 29 are approximately Normal with mean 64 inches and standard deviation 2.7 inches.
i.e.
Since ,
Then, z-score corresponds to a woman 6 feet tall (i.e. x=72 inches).
[∵ 1 foot = 12 inches , 6 feet = 6(12)=72 inches]
Men the same age have mean height 69.3 inches with standard deviation 2.8 inches.
i.e.
Then, z-score corresponds to a man 5'10" tall (i.e. y =70 inches).
[∵ 1 foot = 12 inches , 5 feet 10 inches= 5(12)+10=70 inches]
∴ The z-scores for a woman 6 feet tall is 2.96 and the z-scores for a a man 5'10" tall is 0.25.
