A scientist needs 10 liters of a 20% acid solution for an experiment, but she has only a 5% solution and a 40% solution. To the

nearest tenth of a liter, about how many liters of the 5% and the 40% solutions should she mix to get the solution she needs? Choose the equation to match the situation

Answer:

The volume of 40% solution= 4.3L

The volume of 5% solution= 10L - 4.3L= 5.7L

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let consider  x to be the of volume 40% solution

therefore the volume of 5% is said to be:

10 L= 40% solution volume + 5% solution volume

10 L= (x + 5%) solution volume

making 5% solution volume the subject; we have

5% solution volume= 10 L - x

To estimate the value of the volume, we now have:

Volume  of 20% × Concentration of  20%= (Volume of 40%  × concentration40%) + (Volume of 5% × Concentration of 5% )

∴

10L  ×  20%= (x) L × 35% + 10 L × 5%

(x) L × 35 = 10L × 20 - 10 L × 5 = 10 L × 15

x L = 10L \times \dfrac{15}{35}

x = 4.28 L

x \simeq 4.3L

∴

The volume of 40% solution= 4.3L

The volume of 5% solution= 10L - 4.3L= 5.7L

Please help me with these questions! Will mark brainlist!
Sophie [7]

Answer:

For part one 30000 and the slope for part two is -2000 and for part three it is y=30000=2000x.

Step-by-step explanation:

If it starts at 30,000 then that is on the 0 on the x-axis.

While the plane is descending by 2000 so that is the slope but because it is descending and not rising it is -2000. If it was rising it would be 2000.

And for part three because it starts and 30000 and it goes down 2000 by the x-axis.

Hope this helps.

Each statement describes a transformation of the graph of f(x) = x. Which statement correctly describes the graph of g(x) if g(x
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

reflection over the x-axis and a vertical compression by a factor of 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function is given as

f(x) = x

The transformed graph has equation:

g(x) =  - 8f(x)

The factor of 8, indicates a vertical stretch.

The negative sign indicates a reflection in the x-axis.

Therefore the transformation is a reflection over the x-axis and a vertical compression by a factor of 8.

Calculate the derivative of the following function. y=e6x(6x+1)5
netineya [11]

Answer:

Y' = 360ex+ 30e

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=e×6x×(6x+1) × 5

y'= d/dx (e×6x ×(6x+1)×5)

y'=d/dx(30ex ×(6x+1))

y'=d/dx(180ex^2 + 30ex)

y'=d/dx(180ex^2) + d/dx (30ex)

Calculate the derivative

y'=180e×2x +30e

y'=360ex+30e
