How many quarts of water must be added to 2 gal of soup that is 50% chicken broth to make the soup 40% chicken broth?

1 answer:

7 0

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

Answer:

97 8/10

Explanation:

If you weighed 97.8 pounds on saturn as a decimal, you would take the whole number 97. Now you're left with the ".8" = ".80" this decimal would be 8/10. Now you put them together to create 97 and 8/10.

The diameter of a bacteria colony that doubles every hour is represented by the graph below. What is the diameter of the bacteri

vlada-n [284]

Option B: 256 is the diameter of the bacteria after 8 hours.

Explanation:

From the given, it is obvious that the graph is an exponential function.

The general formula is given by,

$y=a(b)^x$

Where a is the initial population,

b is the growth rate and

x is the number of hours.

It is given that the diameter of the bacteria doubles every hour.

Then, we have,

$b=2$

Let us substitute the coordinate (0,1) and $b=2$ , we get,

$1=a(2)^0$

$1=a$

Thus, substituting $a=1$ and $b=2$ in the general formula $y=a(b)^x$ , we have,

$y=1(2)^x$

We need to determine the diameter of the bacteria after 8 hours.

Let us substitute x = 8 in the equation $y=1(2)^x$ , we get,

$y=1(2)^8$

$y=1(256)$

$y=256$

Thus, the diameter of the bacteria after 8 hours is 256

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

Find the values of X and Y

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Well, one thing, is that a triangle's side's angles add up to 180 degrees. So right now, you have 64 degrees as ONE side. x is very easy to find, because it is a right angle. A right angle is always exactly 90 degrees. So as for now, you have 90 degrees, and 64 degrees. Now add up the two sides, and subtract. (180 degrees - 154 degrees) so, the third side would have to be 26 degrees, if my calculations are right. The top is an acute triangle, the left angle is the right angle, and the given angle is 64 degrees, which is an acute triangle.

I really hope this helped you! Thanks! Have a great day!
