x+y=70. (30x+80y)/(100x+100y)=50/100

Answer:

42 liters of 30% alcohol solution will be needed.

28 liters of 80% solution will be needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jotham needs 70 liters of a 50% alcohol solution.

Let the 30% solution needed be x.

We get the following equation:

70\times0.5=0.30x+0.80(70-x)

Solving this we get;

35=0.30x+56-0.80x

=> 35=56-0.50x

=> 0.50x=56-35

=> 0.50x=21

x = 42

Hence, 42 liters of 30% alcohol solution will be needed.

And 70-42=28 liters of 80% solution will be needed.

Find a1 if Sn = 89,800, r = 3.4, and n = 10. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

a_1=1.04

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a geometric  sequence with:

Sn = 89,800, r = 3.4, and n = 10

Where

Sn is the sum of the sequence

r is the common ratio

a_1 is the first term in the sequence

n is the number of terms in the sequence

The formula to calculate the sum of a finite geometric sequence is:

S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}

Then:

89,800=\frac{a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})}{1-3.4}

Now we solve for a_1

89,800(1-3.4)=a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})

a_1=\frac{89,800(1-3.4)}{1-(3.4)^{10}}\\\\a_1=1.04

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle?<br> 7 ft<br> 4 ft
stepladder [879]

Answer:

√65 ft = 8.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using Pythagoras Theorem

c² = a² + b²

c = √a² + b²

Where c = Length of the Hypotenuse

a = 4ft , b = 7ft

Hence

c = √4² + 7²

c = √16 + 49

c = √(65)

c = 8.0622577483 ft

Approximately = 8.1 ft

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is √65 ft = 8.1 ft
