Answer:

200 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

It's proportions basically.

frst off, 2% of 100 ml is 2 ml, so the 100 ml solution has 2 ml of Minoxidil.

Eventually we want 6/100 to be the porportion.  so the total is going to be 100 (from the initial 100 ml) plus however much is needed x.  And we want the amount of Minoxidil to be 2 + 8 percent of x.  so this gets us the equation

6/100 = (2 + .08x)/(100+x)  Then we solve

(100 + x) 6/100 = 2 + .08x

(100 + x) 6 = 200 + 8x

600 + 6x = 200 + 8x

400 = 2x

x = 200

so they should add 200 ml

You can check too.  there is 100 + 200 ml of solution total and 2 + 16 ml of Minoxidil so that's 18/300 = 6/100

Recursive definitions for subsets of binary strings.Give a recursive definition for the specified subset of the binary strings.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A binary string with 2n+1 number of zeros, then you can get a binary string with 2n(+1)+1 = 2n+3 number of zeros either by adding 2 zeros or 2 1's at any of the available 2n+2 positions. Way of making each of these two choices are (2n+2)22. So, basically if b2n+12n+1 is the number of binary string with 2n+1 zeros then your

b2n+32n+3 = 2 (2n+2)22 b2n+12n+1

your second case is basically the fact that if you have string of length n ending with zero than you can the string of length n+1 ending with zero by:

1. Either placing a 1 in available n places (because you can't place it at the end)

2. or by placing a zero in available n+1 places.

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

|-30| + |25|

Step-by-step explanation:

The helicopter is 25 ft above the ledge. The stunt actor is 30 below the edge. The distance from the helicopter to the stunt actor is the sum of the two distances, 25 + 30 = 55 ft. The correct expression must equal 55.

A. |-30| + |25| = 30 + 25 = 55

B. -30 - 25 = -55

C. -30 + 25 = -5

D. |-30| - |25| = 30 - 25 = 5

The correct expression is |-30| + |25| since it it the only expression that equals 55.
