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

What is the common difference for this arithmetic sequence?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Concept: Series

  1. Start by taking the first and second An and finding the difference
  2. You can then prove your result by taking any ordinary An and subtracting it by An-1
  3. Hence 45-39= 6
  4. To prove our result of 6; 39-33= 6
  5. Hence the common difference is

A spinner is divided into eight equal-sized sections, numbered 1 to 8, inclusive. What is true about spinning the spinner one at
zvonat [6]

Answer with explanation:

The number of section into which Spinner is divided =Number from 1 to 8={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

Now, Spinner is Spun once .

The Correct statement among the given statements are:

→1.   S={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

→2. If A is a subset of S, A could be {1,2,3} , because , {1,2,3}⊂{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}.

→5.If a subset A represents the complement of spinning an odd number, it’s sample space is A={2,,4,6,8}

A=odd number={1,3,5,7}

A's Complement=Even Number={2,4,6,8}

Why, not 3 and 4, because, The number of elements in the set is from 1 to 8, but the subset has three elements, 7,8, and 9.Element, 7 ∈ S, 8∈S, but , 9∈S.

Also, number less than 4, is equal to ={1,2,3}, but in the statement, it is given that,number less than 4, it’s sample space is A={1,2,3,4},which is Incorrect.
