Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
They are correct because the reciprocal ( flipped or opposite) of -2/5 is 5/-2
To solve this problem, let us first assign variables. Let
us say that:
x = volume of 67% herbicide solution
y = volume of 46% herbicide solution
The total volume should be 42 liters therefore:
x + y = 42
x = 42 – y --> 1
The component mass balance on the pure herbicide would
be:
0.67 x + 0.46 y = 0.55 (42) --> 2
Substituting equation 1 to 2:
0.67 (42 – y) + 0.46 y = 23.1
28.14 – 0.67 y + 0.46 y = 23.1
- 0.21 y = - 5.04
y = 24 L
Calculating for x using equation 1:
x = 42 – 24
x = 18 L
Therefore we only need 18 L of the 67% herbicide
solution.
Answer:
A. 18 L
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Our values are:
N = 100,000 (We assume it)
Proportion is p = 0.6
Margin of error (E) = 0.05
confidence-level (cl) = 0.95
Z-value = 1.96
We need to approach through Proportion,

Substituting,




The weight of the hamburger is 160g after two bites.
Each bite takes away 20% of the weight of the burger, so we'll divide the initial weight by a percentage to find the weight before the bite.
The starting weight is 160g. Because 20% of the weight was removed from a bite, we'll divide this weight by the percentage of the burger remaining after the bite:

80% of the burger is left after a bite. Convert this fraction into a decimal by dividing by 100:

Divide the initial weight by this decimal:

The weight of the burger before the second bite was 200.
We'll do the same procedure for the first bite. The initial weight is 200, and there is 80% of the burger remaining after the first bite. Because 80% is 0.8 in decimal form, divide 200 by 0.8:

The starting weight of the burger before the bites was
250 grams.
