Answer:

5.6 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take x gallons of 25% grape juice then it will contain \frac{x}{4} gallons of pure grape juice.

Again, if we take y gallons of 75% grape juice then it will contain \frac{3y}{4} gallons of pure grape juice.

If we mix them then the total volume will become x + y = 7 gallons  ...... (1)

Again the mixture will become 35% juice.

So, \frac{\frac{x}{4} +\frac{3y}{4} }{x+y} =\frac{35}{100}

⇒ 0.25x + 0.75y = 0.35x + 0.35y

⇒0.1x = 0.4y

⇒x = 4y........ (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get, 5y = 7, ⇒ y = 1.4 gallons

Hence, x = 4y = 5.6 gallons

Therefore, the 25% grape juice was mixed by 5.6 gallons. (Answer)

Find an equation of the tangent plane to the given surface at the specified point. z = ln(x − 8y), (9, 1, 0)
Archy [21]

Answer:

x - 8y - z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided according to the question is as follows

f(x,y) = z = ln(x - 8y)

Now the equation for the tangent plane to the surface

For z = f (x,y) at the point P (x_0,y_0,z_0) is

z - z_0 = f_x(x_0,y_0)(x-x_0) + f_y(x_0,y_0)(y-y_0)\\

Now the partial derivatives of f are

f_x(x,y) = \frac{1}{x-8y} \\\\f_y(x,y) = \frac{8}{x-8y} \\\\P(x_0,y_0,z_0) = (9,1,0)\\\\f_z(9,1,0) = (\frac{1}{x-8y})_^{(9,1,0)}

\\\\=\frac{1}{9-8}

= 1

Now

f_y(9,1,0)=(\frac{8}{x-8y})_{(9,1,0)}\\\\ = -\frac{8}{9 - 8}

= -8

So, the tangent equation is

z - 0 = 1\times (x - 9) -8\times (y - 1)

Now after solving this, the following equation arise

z = x - 9 - 8y + 8

z = x - 8y - 1

Therefore

x - 8y - z = 1

Aiko needs solid color and patterned fabric for a sewing project. Fabric costs $7.99 per yard. She needs 2 1/3 yards of solid fa
nikdorinn [45]

The two expressions that are comparable to one another for the total cost of the cloth are and

(7.99 × 7/3) and 18.64

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is expressions ?</h3>

In most cases, the two expressions that are comparable to one another for the total cost of the cloth are

(7.99 × 7/3) and 18.64

Total cost = Cost of fabric per yard * Number of fabrics

= 7.99 × 2 1/3

= (7.99 × 7/3)

= 55.93 / 3

= 18.64

As a result, the two expressions that are comparable to one another for the total cost of the cloth are and

(7.99 × 7/3) and 18.64
