Answer:

Amount of 5% solution = 5.7 Litres

Amount of 40% solution = 4.3 Litres

Step-by-step explanation:

First, of all, let x be the amount of 5% solution used

Since, the scientist needs 10 L of solution, then;

Let 10 - x be the amount of 40% solution used

Now, we are told that she needs 10 L of a 20% acid solution.

This means that;

5%x + 40%(10 - x) = 20%(10).

Simplifying this gives;

0.05x + 0.40(10 - x) = 0.20 × 10

Expanding the bracket gives;

0.05x + 4 - 0.4x = 2

0.4x - 0.05x = 4 - 2

0.35x = 2

x = 2/0.35

x ≈ 5.7 litres

Thus, she will need to mix 5.7 liters of the 5% solution.

Since 10 - x be the amount of 40% solution used , then;

the amount of 40% solution = 10 - 5.7 = 4.3 litres

What is the quotient of the following division problem? x 1 startlongdivisionsymbol x squared 3 x 2 endlongdivisionsymbol. minus
Monica [59]

The quotient of the provided division in which binomial is divided by a quadratic equation is x+2.

<h3>What is the quotient?</h3>

Quotient is the resultant number which is obtained by dividing a number with another. Let a number <em>a</em> is divided by number b. Then the quotient of these two number will be,

q=\dfrac{a}{b}

Here, (a, b) are the real numbers.

The given division expression is,

\dfrac{x^2+3x+2}{x+1}

Let the quotient of this division problem is f(x). Thus,

f(x)=\dfrac{x^2+3x+2}{x+1}

Factor the numerator expression as,

f(x)=\dfrac{x^2+2x+x+2}{x+1}\\f(x)=\dfrac{x(x+2)+1(x+2)}{x+1}\\f(x)=\dfrac{(x+2)(x+1)}{x+1}\\f(x)={x+2}

Thus, the quotient of the provided division in which binomial is divided by a quadratic equation is x+2.
