Answer:

Apple juice there are 95.9 mg

Orange juice there are 87.1 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

We can get a system of equations from the statement.

Let x be the amount of vitamin C in apple juice

Let y be the amount of vitamin C in orange juice

Now, with the statement we have to:

x + y = 183 (1)

2 * x + 3 * y = 453.1 (2)

We have an equation system, of 2 equations with 2 unknowns, that is, it has a solution.

If we multiply the first equation by 2 and subtract the second equation, we are left with:

2 * x + 3 * y - 2 * x - 2 * y = 453.1 - 2 * 183

Solving

y = 453.1 - 366

y = 87.1

Now to calculate x:

x + y = 183

x + 87.1 = 183

x = 183 - 87.1

x = 95.9

To check:

https://es.symbolab.com/solver/step-by-step/x%20%2B%20y%20%3D%20183%3B%202%5Ccdot%20x%20%2B%203%5Ccdot%20y%20%3D%20453.1

Therefore in apple juice there are 95.9 milligrams of vitamin C and in orange juice there are 87.1 milligrams.

Answer: r = 87.1ml

a = 95.9ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Let apple = a and orange = r

Using the equations:

a + r = 183 ........ (1)

2a+3r = 453.1 ......... (2)

------

Multiply the 1st equation by 2 to get:

2a + 2r = 2 × 183

2a + 3r = 453.1

Subtract the 1st from the 2nd and solve for "r":

r = 453.1 - 366

r = 87.1 ml of vitamin C

The is amounr of vitamin C in one orange = 87.1ml

Since a + r = 183, 

a + 87.1 = 183

a = 95.9 ml of vitamin C

The amount of vitamin C in one apple = 95.9ml

Find the distance between the points (-4,5), (-12,5)
posledela

Answer:

d = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

For:

(X1, Y1) = (-4, 5)

(X2, Y2) = (-12, 5)

Distance Equation Solution:

d=(−12−(−4))2+(5−5)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√

d=(−8)2+(0)2−−−−−−−−−−√

d=64+0−−−−−√

d=6–√4

d=8

Therefore, the distance between (-4,5), (-12,5) is 8.

Suppose that the useful life of a car battery, measured in months, decays with parameter 0.03 . We are interested in the life of
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

a) X ~ e(0.03)

b) μ = 100/3

c) \sigma = 100/3

d) A battery is expected to last 100/3 months (33 months and 10 days approximately).

e) For seven batteries, i would expect them to last 700/3 months (approximately 19 years, 5 months and 10 days).

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The life of a battery is usually modeled with an exponential distribution X ~ e(0.03)

b) The mean of X is μ = 1/0.03 = 100/3

c) The standard deviation is \sigma = 1/0.03 = 100/3

d) The expected value of the bateery life is equal to its mean, hence it is 100/3 months.

e) The expected value of 7 (independent) batteries is the sum of the expected values of each one, hence it is 7*100/3 = 700/3 months.

Please help!!! ill mark brainliest
Vesnalui [34]

3x - 1 = 3x + 1  

subtract 3x from both sides to get (-1 = 1).  This is a false statement so it is: CONTRADICTION

************************************************

4x - 11 = 7

add 11 to both sides and then divide both sides by 4 to get (x = \frac{18}{4} = \frac{9}{2}).  This statement is true only when x = \frac{9}{2} so it is: CONDITIONAL

*************************************************

2 - 8x = 2 - 8x

add 8x to both sides to get (2 = 2).  This is a true statement so it is: IDENTITY

*************************************************

x + 1 = -x + 4

add x to both sides, subtract 1 from both sides, and divide both sides by 2 to get  (x = \frac{3}{2} ). This statement is true only when x = \frac{3}{2} so it is: CONDITIONAL

Answer: B, A, C, A
