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

How can you show that two objects are proportional with an equation
masha68 [24]
For an equation to be proportional, it must have no y intercept, and it must have a slope. So, 
<span>y=4x+4  This equation isn't proportional because it has a y-intercept (+4)
y=4x+2  </span>This equation isn't proportional because it has a y-intercept (+2)
y=4x      This equation is proportional because it has no y-intercept, and a                     slope.

Find a number in the sequence<br><br> 1) 100, 400, 610, ?, 652<br><br> 2) 342, 128, ?, 26
dsp73

Answer:

1.  460

2.  216

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

From the series ,

100 , 400 , 610 , ? , 652

Writing the the digits in the revere order , i.e

001 , 004 , 016 , ? , 256

Now,

Now , getting the number in the form of the multiple of 4 as -

1  ,   1 * 4 = 4  ,   4 * 4 = 16 ,  ?  , 64 * 4 = 4  

Hence , the value for ?  =  16 * 4 =  64 .

Again , reversing 64 to get the missing number of the series -

460 .

Hence ,

The value for ? is 460 .

2.

From the series ,

342 , 128 , ? , 26

Now, multiplying the first digit with the second digit and merging it to the product of the second and third digit -

3 * 4 and  4 * 2 , 1 * 2 and 2 * 8 , ?

128 , 216 , ?

Hence ,

The value for question mark = 1 * 2 and  1 * 6 = 216

Hence ,

The value for ? is 216 .
