The answer is 45%

1. Calculate how many ml of blue pigment are in 4ml of ink A if it contains <span>10% blue pigment:
4 ml is 100%
a ml = 10%
4 ml : 100% = a : 10%
a = 4 ml * 10% : 100% = 0.4 ml

2.</span> Calculate how many ml of blue pigment are in 10ml of ink A if it contains x% blue pigment:
10 ml is 100%
b ml = x%
10 ml : 100% = b : x%
b = 10 ml * x% : 100% = x/10 ml

3. 2. Calculate how many ml of blue pigment are in 14ml (because Four milliliters of ink A is added to 10 milliliters of ink B) of total mixture if it contains 35% blue pigment:
14 ml is 100%
t ml = 35%
14 ml : 100% = t : 35%
t = 14 ml * 35% : 100% = 4.9 ml

4. <span>What percentage of blue pigment is in the mixture of the two inks:
a + b = t
0.4 + x/10 = 4.9
x/10 = 4.9 - 0.4
x/10 = 4.5
x = 4.5 * 10 = 45</span>

Find all the complex zeros for the polynomial function. show work<br> f(x)=x^3-7x^2+x-7
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

  ±i

Step-by-step explanation:

Observing that the first two coefficients are the same as the last two, we can factor this function by grouping.

  f(x) = (x^3 -7x^2) +(x -7) = x^2(x -7) +1(x -7)

  f(x) = (x^2 +1)(x -7)

The factor x-7 has a real zero at x=7, so the complex zeros come from the quadratic factor (x^2 +1).

Setting that to zero and solving for x, we find ...

  x^2 +1 = 0

  x^2 = -1

  x = ±√(-1) = ±i

The complex zeros are x = +i and x = -i.
