Answer: choice A. 40 liters

====================================

Explanation:

x = number of liters of the 50% alcohol solution

If we have x liters of 50% alcohol, then we have 0.50*x liters of pure alcohol. This is added to 0.90*40 = 36 liters of pure alcohol (from the 90% solution).

So far we have 0.50*x + 36. This expression represents the total amount of pure alcohol. We want a 70% solution, so we want 70% of the total 40+x meaning 0.50*x + 36 is to be set equal to 0.70*(40+x) and we solve for x as shown below

0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40+x)

0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40)+0.70*(x)

0.50*x + 36 = 28+0.70*x

36 - 28 = 0.70*x - 0.50x

8 = 0.20x

0.20x = 8

x = 8/0.20

x = 40

So that is why the answer is choice A. 40 liters

laiz [17]

Hello, this is a linear problem so we are working with y = mx + b

The problem tells us:

y = total cost

x = the megabytes of data that she used in a month

b = y-intercept, which is the initial value

The problem asks "Which part of the graph will represent the cost per megabyte of data used in each plan?"

It is asking for cost per megabyte... This is a rate. and m = slope = rate

So lets, reiterate.

y = total cost

x = the megabytes of data that she used in a month

b = y-intercept, which is the initial value

m = slope = rate = cost per megabyte of data used

Answer: The slopes of the two lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given :-</u>

√3 - √5 / √7 - √6

<u>Solving :-</u>

= √3 - √5 (√7 + √6) / √7 - √6 (√7 + √6)

= √21 + √18 - √35 - √30 / 7 - 6

= √21 + 3√2 - √35 - √30

<u>Solution :-</u>

<u>√21 + 3√2 - √35 - √30</u>
