Let x = 30% y=16%

We need 5 liters of 27.2% acid
A) x + y = 5
B) .30 x + .16y = 5 * .272
Multiplying A by -.30
A) -.30 x - .30y = -1.5 then adding to B
B) .30 x + .16y = 1.36
-.14y = -.14
y = 1 liter 16%
x = 4 liters 30%

Find an equation that models the path of a satellite if its path is a hyperbola, a = 55,000 km, and c= 81,000 km. Assume the cen
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

\frac{x^2}{55000^2} - \frac{y^2}{59464^2} =1

Step-by-step explanation:

the transverse axis is horizontal.

so its a horizontal hyperbola

Center is the origin so center is (0,0)

Equation of horizontal hyperbola is

\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} =1

Given a= 55000 and c= 81000

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

81000^2 = 55000^2 + b^2

subtract 55000^2 on both sides

b  = sqrt(81000^2 - 55000^2)= 59464.27

now plug in the values

\frac{x^2}{55000^2} - \frac{y^2}{59464^2} =1

Michael is 5 years old than rui feng and. Vishal is thrice as old as micheal if rui feng is 3 years old find Michael present age
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) Micheal's present age = 8 years old

b) The sum of their ages in 6 years time = 63 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we know that

Rui feng is 3 years old

We are told that

• Michael is 5 years old than Rui feng

Micheal's present age is calculated as:

= 5 + Rui feng's age

= 5 + 3 = 8 years

• Vishal is thrice as old as Micheal

Vishal's present age is calculated as

= 3(Micheal age)

= 3(8)

= 24 years.

The sum of their ages in six years time

= ( 3 + 6) +( 8 + 6) + ( 24 + 6)

= 18 + 15 + 30

= 63 years

Therefore, a) Micheal's present age = 8 years old

b) The sum of their ages in 6 years time = 63 years.

-6x+4y=-12 in slope intercept form
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

x= 2 /3 y+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

−6x+4y=−12

Step 1: Add -4y to both sides.

−6x+4y+−4y=−12+−4y

−6x=−4y−12

Step 2: Divide both sides by -6.

−6x /−6 = −4y−12 /−6 x= 2 /3 y

=x= 2 /3 y+2
