A pharmacist has an 18% alcohol solution and a 40% alcohol solution. How much of each should he mix together to make 10 liters o
1 answer:
X = amount of the 18% solution
y = amount of the 40% solution
we know the 18% solution has only 18% of alcohol, the rest is maybe water or something, now, how many liters is 18%? well, 18% of anything is just (18/100) * anything, so, 18% of x is just (18/100) *x or 0.18x, and that's how many liters are there.
likewise, how many liters are there in the 40% solution? well, (40/100) * y, or 0.4y, that many.
we know the mixture has to yield 10 liters at 20% alcohol, how many liters of only alcohol is that? well, (20/100) * 10, or 2 liters.
how much of the 40% solution? well y = 10 - x
y = amount of the 40% solution
we know the 18% solution has only 18% of alcohol, the rest is maybe water or something, now, how many liters is 18%? well, 18% of anything is just (18/100) * anything, so, 18% of x is just (18/100) *x or 0.18x, and that's how many liters are there.

we know the mixture has to yield 10 liters at 20% alcohol, how many liters of only alcohol is that? well, (20/100) * 10, or 2 liters.
how much of the 40% solution? well y = 10 - x

Answer:
a
The 95% confidence interval is
Generally the interval above can interpreted as
There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of Wal-Mart stores that have more than 2 items priced inaccurately per 100 items scanned lie within the interval
b
Generally 99% is outside the interval obtained in a above then the claim of Wal-mart is not believable
c
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 60
The number of stores that had more than 2 items price incorrectly is k = 52
Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as
=>
=>
From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is
=>
Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of is
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

Generally the interval above can interpreted as
There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of Wal-Mart stores that have more than 2 items priced inaccurately per 100 items scanned lie within the interval
Considering question b
Generally 99% is outside the interval obtained in a above then the claim of Wal-mart is not believable
Considering question c
From the question we are told that
The margin of error is E = 0.05
From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is
=>
Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of is
Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

You can consider the triangle (as on in the picture) and apply to it composition of two transformations:
1. reflection about the line y=x to form ΔA'B'C' and translation 1 unit right and 5 units up to form ΔA''B''C'';
2. translation 1 unit right and 5 units up to form ΔA'B'C' and reflection about the line y=x to form ΔA''B''C''.
You can see that results are different.
On added picture blue colour responds to composition of transformations 1 and red colour to composition of transformations 2.
1. reflection about the line y=x to form ΔA'B'C' and translation 1 unit right and 5 units up to form ΔA''B''C'';
