\bf \begin{array}{lcccl}
&\stackrel{solution}{quantity}&\stackrel{\textit{\% of acid}}{amount}&\stackrel{\textit{liters of acid}}{amount}\\
&------&------&------\\
\textit{15\% acid}&x&0.15&0.15x\\
\textit{33\% acid}&y&0.33&0.33y\\ -----&------&------&------\\
mixture&120&0.21&25.2
\end{array}

\bf \begin{cases}
x+y=120\implies \boxed{y}=120-x\\
0.15x+0.33y=25.2\\
--------------\\
0.15x+0.33\left( \boxed{120-x} \right)=25.2
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
0.15x-0.33+39.6=25.2\implies -0.18x=-14.4
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{-14.4}{-0.18}\implies x=80

how many liters will it be of the 33% acid?  well, y = 120 - x.

There are 18 girls on the team this year.

If you take 20 and divide the number by 10 you will get 2.

10%=2

The solutions to a quadratic equation are 6 and 2/3. Which quadratic function is related to this equation?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The quadratic equation for the given roots  6 , \frac{2}{3} is y = 3 x² - 20 x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The roots of the quadratic equation are 6 , \frac{2}{3}

Let The standard quadratic equation

a x² + b x + c = 0

So, the roots are \alpha = 6

And \beta =  \frac{2}{3}

Sum of roots = \alpha +\beta

i.e  \alpha +\beta  = 6 + \frac{2}{3} = \frac{20}{3}            

<u>The quadratic equation</u>

y = (x - α) (x - β)

Or, y = (x - 6) (x -  \frac{2}{3})

Or, y = x² -  \frac{2}{3} x - 6 x + (6 ×  \frac{2}{3})

Or, y =  x² - ( \frac{2}{3} + 6) x + 4

Or, y = x² - (\frac{2+18}{3} ) x + 4

Or, y =  x² - \frac{20}{3}x + 4

Or, y = 3 x² - 20 x + 12

Hence, The quadratic equation for the given roots  6 , \frac{2}{3} is y = 3 x² - 20 x + 12 . Answer
