Mathematics
1 answer:
uranmaximum [27]3 years ago

Answer:

The equation given in the question matches the situation C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The amount that Cindy paid for books was 15% of p i.e. it is only \frac{15p}{100} = 0.15p

B. The amount is given to a charity after saving 15% of p. That means if p is the amount of charity, then there were a savings of 15% of p.

Therefore, the total charity payment after savings = p - 15% of p = p - \frac{15p}{100} = p - 0.15p = 0.85p

C. The amount that Sandy paid for a shirt with 15% tax on p.

Therefore, if the price of a shirt is p, then total payment of Sandy after tax is = p + 15% of p = (p + \frac{15p}{100}) = p + 0.15p = 1.15p

Hence, the equation given in the question matches the situation C. (Answer)

The nurse needs to mix 2% solution with 10% solution to get 10 ml of the prescribed 6% solution. What amount of each solution do
xenn [34]

<em>Volumes of 2% Solution = </em><em>5 ml</em>

<em>Volumes of 10% Solution = </em><em>5 ml</em>

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Simultaneous Linear Equations could be solved by using several methods such as :

  • <em>Elimination Method</em>
  • <em>Substitution Method</em>
  • <em>Graph Method</em>

If we have two linear equations with 2 variables x and y , then we need to find the value of x and y that satisfying the two equations simultaneously.

Let us tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<em>Let:</em>

<em>Volumes of 2% Solution = x</em>

<em>Volumes of 10% Solution = y</em>

\texttt{ }

<em>Total Volume = 10 ml</em>

\boxed{x + y = 10} → <em>Equation 1</em>

\texttt{ }

<em>The nurse needs to mix 2% solution with 10% solution to get 10 ml of the prescribed 6% solution</em>.

2 \% x + 10 \% y = 6 \% (10)

2x + 10y = 6(10)

\boxed{x + 5y = 30} → <em>Equation 2</em>

\texttt{ }

<em>Equation 1 - Equation 2:</em>

( x + y ) - ( x + 5y ) = 10 - 30

-4y = -20

y = -20 \div -4

y = 5 \texttt{ ml}

\texttt{ }

x + y = 10

x + 5 = 10

x = 5 \texttt{ ml}

\texttt{ }

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

<em>Volumes of 2% Solution = </em><em>5 ml</em>

<em>Volumes of 10% Solution = </em><em>5 ml</em>

The product of two consecutive even integers is 288 find the integers.
algol [13]
Using algebra
n and n+2 are the integers
n*(n+2)=288
n^2+2n=288
n^2+2n-288=0
288=2*2*2*2*2*3*3=(2*2*2*2)*(2*3*3)=16*18 and 18-16=2
factor(n+18)(n-16)=0
n+18=0
n=-18
n+2=-16
this is one solution
n-16=0
n=16
n+2=18
this is another solution
as you can see, it's just a matter of factoring 288using arithmetic...√288=16.97≈1716 and 18 are the integers (as well as -16 and -18)
