40oz glycol and water
10% is glycol
4oz is glycol
36oz is water

if glycol is to be added to make glycol 25% of all then
note: water does not change
100-25=75
water does not change so
36oz=75%
12=25%

there should be 12 oz of glycol total
4 now
12-4=8
8 oz should be added

sorry, I just wrote what I was thinking

answer is 8oz

All of these ODEs model a system with a spring, mass and dashpot.

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

− 3 y ' ' − 3 y ' + 3 y = 0 : over-damped

− 2 y ' ' − 4 y ' + 1 y = 0 : over-damped

1 y ' ' + 7 y ' + 5 y = 0: over-damped

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the characteristic equation you can express a differential equation of order n as an algebraic equation of degree n:

$a_ny^n+a_n_-_1y^{n-1}+...+a_1y'+a_oy=0$

This differential equation will have a characteristic equation of the form:

$a_nr^n+a_n_-_1r^{n-1}+...+a_1r+a_o=0$

Now, you can classify the solution for a differential equation using a simple method. In order to do it, you just need to use the discriminant.

If the discriminant is greater than zero, the solution is over-damped

If the discriminant is less than zero, the solution is under-damped

If the discriminant is equal to zero, the solution is critically damped

So, given the differential equation:

$-3y''-3y+3y=0$

Which has characteristic equation of the form:

$-3r^2-3r+3=0$

The quadratic polynomial of the form:

$ar^2+br+c=0$

Has discriminant:

$Disc=b^2-4ac$

In this case:

$a=-3\\b=-3\\c=3$

So:

$Disc=(-3)^2-4(-3)(3)=9-(-36)=45$

In this case:

$Disc=45>0$

Therefore the solution is over-damped.

Now, given the differential equation:

$-2y''-4y'+1y=0$

Which has characteristic equation of the form:

$-2r^2-4r+1=0$

The quadratic polynomial of the form:

$ar^2+br+c=0$

Has discriminant:

$Disc=b^2-4ac$

In this case:

$a=-2\\b=-4\\c=1$

So:

$Disc=(-4)^2-4(-2)(1)=16+8=24$

In this case:

$Disc=24>0$

Therefore the solution is over-damped.

Finally, given the differential equation:

$1y''+7y'+5y=0$

Which has characteristic equation of the form:

$1r^2+7r+5=0$

The quadratic polynomial of the form:

$ar^2+br+c=0$

Has discriminant:

$Disc=b^2-4ac$

In this case:

$a=1\\b=7\\c=5$

So:

$Disc=(7)^2-4(1)(5)=49-20=29$

In this case:

$Disc=29>0$

Therefore the solution is over-damped.

Write 2/15 as a decimal.

Cloud [144]

If you need to write a number as a decimal, it means that you need to write is a an x divided by a power of 10.
you can use this formula:
$\frac{2}{15} = \frac{x}{10}$

now let's multiply both sides by 10:
$\frac{20}{15} = x$
and simplyfy:
(by dividing the first fraction's elements by 5)
$\frac{4}{3} = x$

change improper fraction into a mixed number
$1\frac{1}{3} = x$

and 1 over 3 is 0.33333...

so the answer is 1.333333 - we can also write it as 1.(3)
