x = volume of 10% solution to use in the mixture

y = volume of 25% solution to use

She wants a 200 mL solution, so x + y = 200.

The first solution contributes 0.10x mL of alcohol, while the second contributes 0.25y mL. Together, they make a solution with 0.20(x + y) = 0.20(200) = 40 mL of alcohol.

\begin{cases}x+y=200\\0.10x+0.25y=50\end{cases}\implies x=\dfrac{200}3,y=\dfrac{400}3

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation y equals x minus 3
Rom4ik [11]
Y = x-3

Basically you just need to plug in an x value and solve for y
y = x - 3
y = (4) - 3
y = 1

In this case, the ordered pair of this equation would be (4, 1)

You can do this given any x or y coordinate

Hope this helps

A manufacturing process is designed to produce bolts with a 0.25-in. diameter. Once each day, a random sample of 36 bolts is sel
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

0.6170

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a manufacturing process is designed to produce bolts with a 0.25-in. diameter.

i.e. no of bolts which are produced as per standard is X means then

X is normal with mean = 0.250 and std dev = 0.04

No of bolts tested = 36

If this mean falls outside the interval (0.230,0.270) the production would be shut down.

i.e. P(|x-25|>0.20) =production shut down probability

P(|x-25|>0.20)\\=P(|Z|>0.5)\\=2(0.5-0.1915)\\= 0.6170

I need help :( i don't understand this
maria [59]
Answer: 116.93ft^2




Explanation: find the area of the circle
A= pi•r^2
A=(3.14)•1.5^2= 7.07

Then find the area of the rectangle
A=L•W
A=15.5•8=124

Then do 124-7.07=116.93

You have to subtract the area of the circle from the area of the rectangle because the circle is not shaded in
