Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The total number of students are: 24+26+21=71

He wants each team will have the same number of students between 5 and 9.

The number between 5 to 9 are 6, 7 and 8.

The number 71 is a prime number so we need to divide the 71 students in group so that minimum students left without team.

Dividing 6 students in each group.

Number of teams: \frac{71}{6} = 11 teams and 5 students.

Dividing 7 students in each group.

Number of teams: \frac{71}{7} = 10 teams and 1 students.

Dividing 8 students in each group.

Number of teams: \frac{71}{8} = 8 teams and 7 students.

Thus, we can not divide 71 students into equal teams, but 70 divided by 7 gives the least students left out i.e 10 teams each with 7 students and only 1 student will remain at last.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • loan: $157,823
  • repaid: $378,000
  • interest: $220,177

Step-by-step explanation:

For a loan value of 1, the monthly payment on a 30 year loan at 7% is ...

  A = (0.07/12)/(1 -(1 +0.07/12)^(-12·30)) ≈ 0.00665302495

Then the amount repaid after 360 payments is ...

  360A = 2.39508898 . . . times the principal amount

__

a) For a monthly payment of $1050, the principal can be ...

  $1050/0.00665302495 ≈ $157,823

__

b) The amount repaid to the loan company is ...

  $157,823×2.39508898 ≈ $378,000

__

c) The amount that is interest is ...

  $378,000 -157,823 = $220,177

How much of 30% HCI and 45% HCI would be needed to mix and produce 50 liters of 35% HCI
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

  • 33 1/3 liters of 30%
  • 16 2/3 liters of 45%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the liters of 45% solution needed. Then the amount of HCl in the mix is ...

  0.45x +0.30(50 -x) = 0.35(50)

  0.15x = 0.05(50) . . . . . simplify, subtract 0.30(50)

  x = (0.05/0.15)(50) = 50/3 = 16 2/3 . . . liters of 45% HCl

33  1/3 liters of 30% and 16 2/3 liters of 45% HCl are needed.

_____

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

You may notice that the general solution to a mixture problem of this sort is that the fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is ...

  (mix % - low %) / (high % - low %) = (.35 -.30) / (.45 -.30) = .05/.15 = 1/3
