It might be 9 if it's not 6 ...but I can't see how it wouldn't be 6?
Answer: y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
4 (6) + y = 20
24 + y = 20
-24 -24
y = -4
Answer:
The correct answer is 61.08 foot.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the string of the kite, Mr. Black is flying is 65 foot. Thus the length between the kite and Mr. Black is given by 65 foot.
Angle of elevation is 70°.
We need to calculate the height of the kite above Mr. Black's head. The height is given by finding the sine of the angle of elevation.
Let the height be x foot.
Thus sin 70° = 
⇒ x = sin 70° × 65
⇒ x = 61.08
Thus the height of the kite above Mr. Black head is 61.08 foot.
1 minute has 60 seconds. So, we'll multiply the numerator and the denominator by 60.
176 feet/1 second = 10,560 feet/1 minute
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
26% is (26-20)/(50-20) = 6/30 = 1/5 of the way between 20% and 50%. That means 1/5 of the solution is 50% acid.
50% acid: 1/5 · 100 mL = 20 mL
20% acid: 100 mL -20 mL = 80 mL
Delbert must mix 80 mL of 20% acid and 20 mL of 50% acid.
_____
Maybe you'd like to see an equation. Let x represent the amount of 50% acid required. Then 100-x is the amount of 20% acid needed. The amount of acid in the mix is ...
0.50(x) +0.20(100 -x) = 0.26(100)
(0.50 -0.20)x = (0.26 -0.20)100 . . . . subtract 0.20(100)
x = (0.26 -0.20)/(0.50 -0.20)×100 = 20
This last expression should look a lot like the one we started with in this answer. It shows you how you can almost write down the answer to mixture problems without a lot of work.
