Suppose x quarts of the 50% solution
0.5x+0.2*20=0.4(x+20)
0.5x+4=0.4x+8
0.1x=4
x=40
<span>Let x = amt of water evaporated :.05(50) = .08(50-x) 2.5 = 4 - .08x .08x = 4 - 2.5 .08x = 1.5 x = 18.75 lb of water evaporated : ; Check; amt of salt remains the same, only the percentage is different, right? .05(50) = .08(50-18.75) .05(50) = .08(31.25) 2.5 = 2.5</span>
Answer:
This is a linear equation, there's nothing to simplify.
The slope in this equation is 1.25
The y-intercept of this equation is 10
I believe the measure of AB is 90 degrees, but I may be wrong.
Answer:
Suppose the closest point is at p=(x0,y0), and set q=(−2,−3). Then the tangent to the parabola at p is perpendicular to ℓ, the line through p,q. and we end up numerically computing the roots from here.
