A 40% antifreeze solution is to be mixed with a 70% antifreeze

Mathematics

Alenkasestr [34]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: 160 liters of the

40% solution and 80 liters of the 70% solution will be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of liters of 40% antifreeze solution that should be used.

Let y represent the number of liters of 70% antifreeze solution that should be used.

The volume of the mixture to be mixed is 240 liters. It means that

x + y = 240

The 40% antifreeze solution is to be mixed with a 70% antifreeze

solution to get 240 liters of a 50% solution. This means that

0.4x + 0.7y = 0.5(240)

0.4x + 0.7y = 120 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 240 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.4(240 - y) + 0.7y = 120

96 - 0.4y + 0.7y = 120

- 0.4y + 0.7y = 120 - 96

0.3y = 24

y = 24/0.3

y = 80

x = 240 - y = 240 - 80

x = 160

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

They completed 13, 3 credit classes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make 2 formulas. In this case: x+y=18

and 3x+4y=59

2. Then multiply x+y=18 by 3 and subtract the two equations.

Find y which is 5 and input into the equations. Then find your answer.

The probability of rain on the last day of July is 95 % . If the probability remains constant for the first seven days of August
8090 [49]

The probability that it rains at most 2 days is 0.00005995233 and the variance is 0.516

<h3>The probability that it rains at most 2 days</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Number of days, n = 7
  • Probability that it rains, p = 95%
  • Number of days it rains, x = 2 (at most)

The probability that it rains at most 2 days is represented as:

P(x ≤ 2) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2)

Each probability is calculated as:

P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}

So, we have:

P(0) = ^7C_0 * (92\%)^0 * (1 - 92\%)^{7 - 0} = 0.00000002097

P(1) = ^7C_1 * (92\%)^1 * (1 - 92\%)^{7 - 1} = 0.00000168821

P(2) = ^7C_2 * (92\%)^2 * (1 - 92\%)^{7 - 2} = 0.00005824315

So, we have:

P(x ≤ 2) =0.00000002097 + 0.00000168821 + 0.00005824315

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.00005995233

Hence, the probability that it rains at most 2 days is 0.00005995233

<h3>The mean</h3>

This is calculated as:

Mean = np

So, we have:

Mean = 7 * 92%

Evaluate

Mean = 6.44

Hence, the mean is 6.44

<h3>The standard deviation</h3>

This is calculated as:

σ = √np(1 - p)

So, we have:

σ = √7 * 92%(1 - 92%)

Evaluate

σ = 0.718

Hence, the standard deviation is 0.718

<h3>The variance</h3>

We have:

σ = 0.718

Square both sides

σ² = 0.718²

Evaluate

σ² = 0.516

This represents the variance

Hence, the variance is 0.516
