Answer:

200 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the volume of solution B:

0.06 (500) + 0.20 x = 0.10 (500 + x)

30 + 0.20 x = 50 + 0.10 x

0.10 x = 20

x = 200

Answer: He used 200 milliliters of Solution B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the volume of solution B that he uses.

Alonzo has two solutions that contain alcohol and is mixing them with each other. Solution A is 6% alcohol and Solution B is 20% alcohol. If he uses 500 milliliters of Solution A and x milliliters of Solution B, then the total volume of the mixture would be (500 + x) milliliters. If the resulting mixture is a 10% alcohol solution, the expression becomes

(6/100 × 500) + (20/100 × x) = (10/100 × (500 + x))

30 + 0.2x = 0.1(500 + x)

30 + 0.2x = 50 + 0.1x

0.2x - 0.1x = 50 - 30

0.1x = 20

x = 20/0.1

x = 200

<h3>What is a remainder of a polynomial equation?</h3>

The remainder of a quantity in an algebraic expression of a polynomial equation is the remaining amount of the quantity left and can not be divisible by the divisor.

From the given information, we are to find the remainder of the given algebraic equation:

\mathbf{= \dfrac{5x^3+7x+5}{x+2} }

Using the long division method, we have:

\mathbf{= \dfrac{5x^3+7x+5}{x+2} } \implies \mathbf{5x^2 + \dfrac{-10x^2+7x+5}{x+2}}

Divide by \mathbf{ \dfrac{-10x^2+7x+5}{x+2}}, we have:

\mathbf{= 5x^2- 10x+ \dfrac{27x+5}{x+2}}

Divide by \mathbf{\dfrac{27x+5}{x+2}}, we have:

\mathbf{= 5x^2- 10x+ 27 +\dfrac{-49}{x+2}}

Help this is really hars

We have to find the slope of the line that passes through this points:
p1(-2,15), p2(-8,-5)
the slope of a line through two points is calculated like this:
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where x1,y1,x2,y2 are the coordinates of the two points, so we have:
m = (-5 - 15)/(-8 - (-2))
m = (-20)/(-8 + 2)
m = -20/-6
m = 10/3
that is the line slope

A rectangular park has an area of 6 square miles. The width of the property is 3/8 the length of the property. What is the width
Olegator [25]
Area = width * length

if width = 3/8 length ⇒ length = 8/3 width

area = width * 8/3 width = 8/3 width² = 6

width² = \frac{6*3}{8} =  \frac{3 * 3}{4} =  \frac{9}{4}

width = \sqrt \frac{9}{4} =  \frac{3}{2}
