Answer: 15 oz of 2% solution and 10 oz of 5% solution

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Set up a table with the given information. <em>Multiply across and add down</em>. The bottom row (Total) will provide the equation. Then, solve the equation for the variable (2% solution) and substitute that value into the quantity for the 5% solution to find that value.

\begin {array}{l|c|c||l}&Quantity&Percent&Qty\times Percent\\ Solution\ A&x&2\%=0.02&\qquad 0.02(x)=0.02x\\Solution\ B&25-x&5\%=0.05&0.05(25-x)=1.25-0.05x\\Total&25&3.2\%=0.032&0.02x+1.25-0.05x\\\end{array}  \\\\\\.\qquad 25(0.32) = 1.25-0.03x\\.\qquad \qquad -0.8 = 1.25 - 0.03x\\.\qquad \quad \ -0.45 = -.03x\\.\qquad \qquad \ 15 = x\\\\Solution\ A: x = 15\\Solution\ B: 25 - x = 25 - (15) = 10

In which quadrant does the ordered pair (5, -6) lie?
guajiro [1.7K]
The coordinate (5,-6) lies in the fourth coordinate, because the first is x positive y positive, the second is x negative and y positive, the third is x negative and y negative, and the fourth is x positive y negative. This is x positive y negative, so it is in the fourth quadrant.

Please help!! I don’t get it

Answer:

Each hotdog costs $1.65

Each juice drink costs $1.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by letting x represent the number of hot dogs and y the number of juice drinks.

The Baxter family bought 6 hot dogs and 4 juices for $14.10.

6x + 4y = 14.10

The Farley family bought 3 hot dogs and 4 juices for $9.15.

3x + 4y = 9.15

Now, we subtract these equations.

6x + 4y = 14.10\\- (3x + 4y = 9.15)

Since y has reversed coefficients, it gets eliminated. Now solve for x.

6x+4y-3x-4y=14.1-9.15\\3x = 4.95\\\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{4.95}{3}

\frac{4.95}{3} = 1.65

x = 1.65

NOW, we find y by substituting x with 1.65 (in either equation).

We'll use the first equation.

6x + 4y = 14.10

6(1.65) + 4y = 14.10

9.9 + 4y = 14.10\\4y = 14.1 - 9.9\\4y = 4.2

\frac{4y}{4} = \frac{4.2}{4} \\y = 1.05

x = 1.65

y = 1.05

x represents hotdogs and y represents juice drinks.

Therefore, each hotdog costs $1.65 and each juice drink costs $1.05.

Evan tosses a ball from the roof of a building. The path of the ball can be modelled
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Please find attached sketch of the path of the ball, having plot area and plot points, created with MS Excel

Step-by-step explanation:

Question;

The equation representing the path of the ball obtained from a similar question posted online are;

h₁ = -4·(t + 1)·(t - 5), h₂ = -4·(t - 2)² + 36, h₃ = -4··t² + 16·t + 20

The above equations represent the same path

The equation, h₁ = -4·(t + 1)·(t - 5), gives the roots of the height function, h(t), used in determining the height of the ball after time <em>t</em>

At (t + 1) = 0 (t = -1) or at (t - 5) = 0 (t = 5), the ball is at ground level

The ball reaches the ground, is at ground level at t = 1, and at t = 5 seconds after being tossed, where h(t) = 0

The equation of the path of the ball in vertex form, y = a·(x - 2)² + k, is h₂ = -4·(t - 2)² + 36, where, by comparison, we have;

The vertex of the ball = The maximum height reached by the ball  = (h, k) = (2, 36)

The coefficient of the quadratic term, t², is negative, therefore, the shape of the parabola is upside down, ∩, shape

The sketch of the path of the ball created with MS Excel, used in plotting the vertex, the initial value and the root points of the parabola, through which the ball passes and joining of the points with a 'smooth' curve is attached
