Answer:
20 is the longer piece, 9 is the shorter piece
Step-by-step explanation:
9*2=18
18+2=20
20+9=29

Answer:
- a(x) = 20 + 0.60x
- domain [0, 50]; range [20, 50]
- maybe
Step-by-step explanation:
a) If x liters are removed from a container with a volume of 50 L, the amount remaining in the container is (50 -x) liters. Of that amount, 40% is acid, so the acid in the container before any more is added will be ...
0.40 × (50 -x)
The x liters are replaced with 100% acid, so the amount of acid that was added to the container is ...
1.00 × (x)
Then after the remove/replace operation, the total amount of acid in the container is ...
a(x) = 0.40(50 -x) +1.00(x)
a(x) = 20 +0.60x . . . . . liters of acid in the final mixture
__
b) The quantity removed cannot be less than zero, nor can it be more than 50 liters. The useful domain of the function is 0 ≤ x ≤ 50. (liters)
The associated range is 20 ≤ a ≤ 50. (liters)
__
c) As we found in part b, the amount of acid in the final mixture may range from 20 liters to 50 liters. So, the percentage of acid in the final mix will range from 20/50 = 40% to 50/50 = 100%. The mixture could be 50% acid, but is not necessarily.
Here the right side of the 2 equations (which are different) both equal y
so 0 solutions
Answer:
x = 162 cards need to be dealt with
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Estimation of likelyhood of next card to be queen, a king, or an ace:
( 64 - 0.2*x ) / ( 208 - x )
Find:
For what values of x is this likelihood greater than 70%?
Solution:
- Use the likely-hood estimation relation and set up the inequality as follows:
( 64 - 0.2*x ) / ( 208 - x ) > 0.7
( 64 - 0.2*x ) > 0.7*( 208 - x )
64 - 0.2*x > 145.6 - 0.7*x
0.5*x > 81.6
x > 163.2
- It would require 162 cards to be dealt with for the probability of next card being queen, a king, or an ace is greater than 70%
