Emily has the following grades in his math class: Homework grades: 80, 100, 90, Quiz grades: 84, 90, 72, Test grades: 64,

Bess [88]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Homework mean x 10%: (80+100+90)/3 x 0.1 = 90 x 0.1 = 9

Quiz mean x 25%: (84+90+72)/3 x 0.25 = 20.5

Test mean x 45%: (64+72)/2 x 0.45 = 30.6

Sum of means/percentage of grade: 9 + 20.5 + 30.6 = 60.1/.8 = 75.125

A 25% acid solution must be added to a 40% solution to get 240 liters of 30% acid solution. How many of each should be used ?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The number of liters of 25% acid solution = x = 160 liters

The number of liters of 40% acid solution = y = 80 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent:

The number of liters of 25% acid solution = x

The number of liters of 40% acid solution = y

Our system of Equations =

x + y = 240 liters....... Equation 1

x = 240 - y

A 25% acid solution must be added to a 40% solution to get 240 liters of 30% acid solution.

25% × x + 40% × y = 240 liters × 30%

0.25x+ 0.4y = 72...... Equation 2

We substitute 240 - y for x in Equation 2

0.25(240 - y)+ 0.4y = 72

60 - 0.25y + 0.4y = 72

Collect like terms

- 0.25y + 0.4y = 72 - 60

0.15y = 12

y = 12/0.15

y = 80 Liters

Solving for x

x = 240 - y

x = 240 liters - 80 Liters

x = 160 liters

Therefore,

The number of liters of 25% acid solution = x = 160 liters

The number of liters of 40% acid solution = y = 80 liters

2067 Supp Q.No. 2a Find the sum of all the natural numbers between 1 and 100 which are divisible by 5. Ans: 1050

Alborosie

Answer:

1050

Step-by-step explanation:

Natural Numbers are positive whole numbers. They aren't negative, decimals, fractions. We can just divide 5 into 100 to find how many natural numbers go up to 100 and just add them but that is just to much.

There is a easier method.

E.g: Natural Numbers that are divisible by a Nth Number. is the same as adding the Nth Numbers to a multiple of that Nth Term. For example, let say we need to find numbers divisible by 2. We know that 4 is divisible by 2 because 4/2=2. We can add the Nth numbers which is 2 to 4. 4+2=6. And 6 is divisible by 2 because 6/2=3. We can call this a arithmetic series. A series which has a pattern of adding a common difference

Back to the problem, we can use the sum of arithmetic series formula,

$y = x( \frac{z {}^{1} + {z}^{n} }{2} )$

Where x is the number of terms in our sequence. Z1 is the fist term of our series. ZN is our last term. And y is the sum of all of the terms

The first term is 5, the numbers of terms being added is 20 because 100/5=20. The last term is 100.

$y = 20( \frac{5 + 100}{2} )$

$y = 20( \frac{105}{2} )$

$y = 1050$
