Answer:

The scientist needs 80 liters of 25% solution and 40 liters of 10% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the liters of 25% solution, and y is the liters of 10% solution, then:

x + y = 120

0.25x + 0.10y = 0.20(120)

Solve the system of equations using substitution or elimination.  Using substitution:

0.25x + 0.10(120 − x) = 0.20(120)

0.25x + 12 − 0.10x = 24

0.15x = 12

x = 80

y = 40

The scientist needs 80 liters of 25% solution and 40 liters of 10% solution.

4. ○ \displaystyle \frac{25}{46}

3. ○ \displaystyle \frac{31}{100}

2. ○ \displaystyle \frac{3}{4}

1. ○ \displaystyle \frac{27}{50}

Step-by-step explanation:

5. \displaystyle \frac{25}{23 + 25} = \frac{25}{48}

4. \displaystyle \frac{25}{46} = \frac{25}{21 + 25}

3. \displaystyle Flat-out\:given\:to\:you

2. \displaystyle \frac{21 + 23 + 31}{100} = \frac{75}{100} = \frac{3}{4}

Which of the following is not a function?
rusak2 [61]
Answer: B

Number on the left: x-value
Number on the right: y-value

If there are 2 y-values for one x-value it is NOT considered a function.

For instance in the answer:

(2,3), (2,4), (3,3), (3,4)

You can clearly see that the x-values (2 & 3) repeat more than once; therefore, it is NOT a function.

On the other hand if you have 2 DIFFERENT x-values for the same y-value it IS A FUNCTION.

For ex D: (2,4), (3,4), (5,4), (6,4)

As you can see there are 4 DIFFERENT x-values with same y-value; therefore it is A FUNCTION

To make it easier:

If x-values appear more than once = NOT A FUNCTION

If x-values appear only ONCE = FUNCTION

Remember: y-values are ALLOWED to repeat

I hope this helps. If you have any questions please let me know in the comments.
