Answer:

40 liters of 88-octane gasoline should be mixed

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the number of liters of 88-octane gasoline that should be mixed with 100 liters of 95-octane gasoline to get a mixture of 93-octane gasoline.

Since we do not know the number of liters, we can represent it by x

This means that the total number of liters of the 93-octane gasoline we are looking at producing is (100 + x) liters.

Thus, if we multiply the number of liters of each gasoline type by their isooctane content and add together, we will obtain the product;

Hence;

88(x) + 100(95) = 93(100 + x)

88x + 9500 = 9300 + 93x

93x -88x = 9500-9300

5x = 200

x = 200/50

x = 40 liters

Grace rolls a fair, 6-sided die 50 times.
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the thing. It is easier to figure out the probability of not getting a six even once during the 50 rolls.

The chance of that happening is (5/6)^50 = 0.00010988

So the probability is succeeding is (1 - 0.00010988) = 0.9999 rounded to 4 places.

The graph shows the dilation of quadrilateral MNOP with the origin as its center. Which rule describes this transformation?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

D) (x, y) → (1/3x , 1/3 y)

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a change of size, if the dilation factor is greater than 1, then the figure is enlarged.  If the dilation factor is smaller than 1, the figure is shrinked.  In both cases, the coordinates are MULTIPLIED by the dilation factor.

Among the 4 choices, only 2 are dilations.  One is with a dilation factor of 3 (A), which means the shape was enlarged.  And the other is with  dilation factor of 1/3, meaning the shape was shrinked.

Since we went from MNOP (LARGE one) to M'N'O'P' (small one), the dilation factor was < 1... so 1/3 is the answer.

Answers B and  C show a translation/movement of the shape, not a dilation.
