Step-by-step explanation: Well we would know that the original soup is one gallon water and one gallon broth because that is 2 gallons 50% to 50%.

Then to decrease the amount of broth by 10%, we would accomplish this by first turning the original gallons into quarts so we would have 4 quarts broth and 4 quarts water. We need to get a total of ten quarts SO........ we know that we need to add 2 MORE quarts of WATER.

Finally when we add all the quarts together we get 10 total with 6 water and 4 broth which totals to 60% water and 40% broth.

FINAL ANSWER: 2 QUARTS WATER

A water tank in the shape of an inverted circular cone has a base radius of 3 m and height of 7 m . If water is being pumped int

Wittaler [7]

The water level increases by 0.608 meters per minute when the water is 3.5 m deep

<h3>How to determine the rate?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Radius, r = 3
Height, h = 7
Rate in, V' = 4.3m^3/min

The relationship between the radius and height is:

r/h = 3/7

Make r the subject

r = 3h/7

The volume of a cone is;

$V = \frac 13\pi r^2h$

This gives

$V = \frac 13\pi (\frac{3h}{7})^2h$

Expand

$V = \frac{3h^3}{49}\pi$

Differentiate

$V' = \frac{9h^2}{49}\pi h'$

Make h' the subject

$h' = \frac{49}{9\pi h^2}V'$

When the water level is 3.5.

We have:

$h' = \frac{49}{9\pi * 3.5^2}V'$

Also, we have:

V' = 4.3

So, the equation becomes

$h' = \frac{49}{9\pi * 3.5^2} * 4.3$

Evaluate the products

$h' = \frac{210.7}{346.36}$

Evaluate the quotient

h' = 0.608

Hence, the water level increases by 0.608 meters per minute

the sum of two numbers is 49.Twice the smaller number is 97 less than 3 times the larger number.What are the numbers. help mee I

kondaur [170]

Answer:

smaller number is 10

larger number is 39

Step-by-step explanation:

a = small number

b = larger number

a + b = 49

2a = 3b - 97

substitute 49-a into second equation for b

2a = 3(49-a) - 97

2a = 147 - 3a - 97

5a = 50

a = 10

b = 39

EASY POINTS Find the domain of the graphed function.

Vladimir [108]

Using it's concept, it is found that the domain of the graphed function is given as follows:

D. $-4 \leq x \leq 2$

<h3>What is the domain of a function?</h3>

It is the set that contains all possible input values for the function. In a graph, it is given by the values of x.

In this graph, x assumes values between -4 and 2, inclusive due to the closed circle, hence the domain is given by:

D. $-4 \leq x \leq 2$
