A scientist has two kinds of solutions. The first solution is Solution A, which is an $80\%$ acid solution. The second solution

is Solution B, which is a $30\%$ acid solution. (a) Find the amount of Solution A (in mL) that must be added to $500$ mL of Solution B in order to produce a $70\%$ acid solution. (b) Find the amount of Solution A and Solution B (in mL) that can be combined in order to form a $100$ mL solution that is $50\%$ acid. (c) Does there exist a combination of Solution A and Solution B that is $90\%$ acid?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a ) Let the volume required be v .

v x .8 + 500 x .3 / ( v + 500 ) = .7

.8 v + 150 = .7 v + 350

.1 v = 200

v = 2000 mL

b )

Let the volume of solution A  required be v . The volume of solution of B required will be 100 - v

v x .8 + ( 100 - v ) x .3 / 100 = .5

.8 v + 30 - .3 v = 50

.5 v = 20

v = 40 mL

volume of solution B = 60 mL .

c )

It is not possible because 90 % is more than 80 % the concentration of solution A . Any mixture will have concentration less than 80 % .

volume of solution B = 60 mL

When she add the part about being a mother and the strength that involved, she was able to connect with mothers everywhere.Women's right was all about allowing women to have the rights that men had, and she uses logic by telling the audience about how both women and men were enslaved and women were able to physically keep up with the men. By explaining things the way she did she made a great case for women's rights.

Which events are independent? Select each correct answer.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Independent events are those events when the happening of one event does not affect the happening the other event.

In the given example we have the following events as independent:

A) A spinner is spun and a coin is flipped

C) Two number cubes are rolled at the same time.

Both these events are independent because the happening of one event does not affect the other in both the cases.

But the options B and D are not independent because in both the cases happening of first event affects the happening of the next event. Therefore, the correct options are A and C.
