Answer:

36 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let q represent the quantity of 30% solution required. The total amount of alcohol in the mix is ...

30%·q + 35%·9 = 31%·(q +9)

30q + 315 = 31q +279 . . . . multiply by 100 and eliminate parentheses

36 = q . . . . . add -(279+30q) to both sides

36 ounces of 30% alcohol must be mixed to make the 31% solution.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem,

base²+altitude² = hypotenuse²

x² + 14² = 40²

x² + 196 = 1600

x² = 1600 - 196

x² = 1404

x = √1404

x = 37.47 ft

(2x^3+6x-1)+(3x^2-7x)

sattari [20]

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

$(2x ^ 3 + 6x-1) + (3x ^ 2-7x)$

We eliminate the parentheses taking into account that:

$+ * + = +\\+ * - = -$

So, we have:

$2x ^ 3 + 6x-1 + 3x ^ 2-7x =$

We add similar terms taking into account that:

Different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

$2x ^ 3 + 3x^2-x-1$

Answer:

$2x ^ 3 + 3x^2-x-1$
