RUDIKE [14]3 years ago

Answer:

15.

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=50\\0.2x+0.1y=6\end{array}\right.

16. 10 ml of 20% saline and 40 ml of 10% saline

Step-by-step explanation:

A chemist takes x ml of 20% saline and y ml of 10% saline. In total, he takes

x + y ml that is 50 ml, so

x + y = 50.

There are  0.2x ml of salt in x ml of 20% saline and 0.1y ml of salt in 10% saline. There are 0.12\cdot 50=6 ml of salt in 50 ml of 12% saline. Thus,

0.2x+0.1y=6

15. We get the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=50\\0.2x+0.1y=6\end{array}\right.

16. Solve this system. From the first equation:

x=50-y

Substitute it into the second equation:

0.2(50-y)+0.1y=6\\ \\10-0.2y+0.1y=6\\ \\-0.1y=6-10\\ \\-0.1y=-4\\ \\y=40\\ \\x=50-y=50-40=10

The balance of an investment account is $308.32
Nady [450]

The balance was $4400.25 before 4 years.

<h3>What is an Equation?</h3>

An equation is a mathematical statement formed when two expressions are equated using an equal sign.

The equations are useful in the determination of unknown parameters.

The equations are of various types, such as Trigonometric equations, and quadratic equations.

The balance of an investment account is $308.32

Let the balance 4 years ago was $x

Then the balance today is represented by x + 308.32

The current balance is $4708.57

The expressions can be equated to get the value of the balance 4 years ago.

x + 308.32 = 4708.57

x = 4708.57 - 308.32

x = $4400.25

The balance 4 years ago was $4400.25

Which statement best applies to the function y = x squared?
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

b.  The range only includes numbers greater than or equal to 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any square of a number will never lead to a negative number

The range of an equation is it's numerical possibilities for y

Since a square of a negative number never leads to a negative y

The answer is therefore, the range can only be zero and above

(otherwise the roots would be imaginary)
