Answer:
There is 1 solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5(x - 3) = 3x - 2.5
0.5x - 1.5 = 3x - 2.5
-2.5x = -1
x = 0.4
There is 1 solution.
Answer:
x is in the top left of the triangle :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let quantity of 5% be x liters and of 17.5% be y liters
x+y=20 hence y=20-x
Introducing percentages
0.05x+0.175(20-x)=0.15*20
0.05x+3.5-0.175x=3
-0.125x=-0.5

Therefore, y=20-x=20-4=16
You need 4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5% to achieve 20 liters of 15% acid solution

will be increasing on the intervals where

and decreasing wherever

. Local extrema occur when

and the sign of

changes to either side of that point.

is positive when

is between -4 and some number between -2 and -1, and also 2 (exclusive) and 4, so you can estimate that

is increasing on the intervals [-4, -2] and (2, 4].

is negative when

is between some number between -2 and -1, up to some number less than 2. So

is decreasing on the interval [-1, 1].
You then have two possible cases for extrema occurring. The sign of

changes for some

between -2 and -1, and again to either side of

.
104 Because 100*4 = 400 and 4*4 = 16 so add together and get 416
