We have 10 ml of 20% acid to which we need to add "x" milliliters of 100% acid to make 50% acid.
 
.20 * 10 + 1.00x = .50 * (10 +x)
in which "x" is the volume of the 100% acid to be added.
2 + x = 5 + .5 x
.5x = 3
x = 6 milliliters

if an amount of $5,000 is deposited into a savings account at an annual interest rate of 5%, compounded monthly, what is the val
Ugo [173]

Answer:

$8,240

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Principle amount in the savings account, P = $5,000.

Rate of interest, r = 5% = 0.05

Time period, t = 10

Also, the interest is compounded monthly, n = 12

As, we now that the value of the investment is given by P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Thus, we have,

Investment Value = 5000(1+\frac{0.05}{12})^{12\times 10}

i.e. Investment Value = 5000(1+\frac{0.05}{12})^{12\times 10}

i.e. Investment Value = 5000(1+0.00417)^{120}

i.e. Investment Value = 5000\times 1.648

i.e. Investment Value = $8,240

Hence, the investment amount after 10 years is $8,240.

Solving multi step equations
hichkok12 [17]

The no-brain way to do it is to

  1. subtract one side from both sides so you have <em>(something) = 0</em>.
  2. divide by the coefficient of the variable.
  3. add the opposite of the constant.

Of course, at some point, you need to simplify the equation so you have something like

... ax + b = 0 . . . . . . where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are some constants that may be positive or negative

17) Subtract the right side.

... 10(x +3) -(-9x -4) -(x -5 +3) = 0

... 10x + 30 +9x +4 -x +5 -3 = 0 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

... x(10+9-1) +(30+4+5-3) = 0 . . . . . . . collect terms

... 18x +36 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplified

... x + 2 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 18, the coefficient of x

... x = -2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add the opposite of the constant

19) Add the opposite of the left side.

... 0 = -9(1 +7x) +12(x -12)

... 0 = -9 -63x +12x -144 . . . . . . eliminate parenthses

... 0 = -51x -153 . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

... 0 = x +3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -51, the coefficient of x

... -3 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add the opposite of the constant

_____

If you examine the variable's coefficients you can make a choice of side to subtract that results in a positive coefficient of the variable.

This method puts variable and constant together until the end. The approach usually taught is to separate the variable terms and constant terms. (The number of steps required is the same either way.)

The reason this is "no brain" is that it always works and requires no judgment as to what you add or subtract from where. Applying a little judgment as described above can make it so you're mostly working with positive numbers, but the method works whether the numbers are positive or negative.

Hhhheeeeellllllpppp no 13 and 14​
laila [671]

Answer:

13. B. 24 cm²

14. y = 5⅝ (none of the options is correct)

Step-by-step explanation:

13. The figure is a trapezoid

Area of the trapezoid = ½(a + b)h

Where,

a = 3 cm

b = 5 cm

h = 6 cm

Area = ½(3 + 5)6

= ½(8)6

= 4*6

= 24 cm²

14. Area of the triangle = ½*b*h

The area is given to be 45 cm²

base (b) = 16 cm

height (h) = y

Plug in the values and solve for y

45 = ½*16*y

45 = 8y

Divide both sides by 8

45/8 = 8y/8

45/8 = y

5⅝ = y

y = 5⅝ (none of the options is correct)
