Five hundred gallons of 89-octane gasoline is obtained by mixing 87-octane gasoline with 92-octane gasoline. (a) Write a system

of equations in which one equation represents the total amount of final mixture required and the other represents the amounts of 87- and 92-octane gasoline in the final mixture. Let x and y represent the numbers of gallons of 87- and 92-octane gasoline, respectively. (b) Use a graphing utility to graph the two equations in part (a) in the same viewing window. As the amount of 87-octane gasoline increases, how does the amount of 92-octane gasoline change? (c) How much of each type of gasoline is required to obtain the 500 gallons of 89-octane gasoline?

Explanation:

a) The total volume equals the sum of the volumes.

500 = x + y

The total octane amount equals the sum of the octane amounts.

89(500) = 87x + 92y

44500 = 87x + 92y

b) desmos.com/calculator/ekegkzllqx

As x increases, y decreases.

c) Use substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations.

44500 = 87x + 92(500−x)

44500 = 87x + 46000 − 92x

5x = 1500

x = 300

y = 200

The required volumes are 300 gallons of 87 gasoline and 200 gallons of 92 gasoline.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Option E

Explanation:

All the given statements are true except the velocity gradients normal to the flow direction are small since these are not normally small. It's true that viscous effects are present only inside the boundary layer and the fluid velocity equals the free stream velocity at the edge of the boundary layer. Moreover, Reynolds number is greater than unity and the fluid velocity is zero at the surface of the object.

The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E and F. The b
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a) P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) Q = 5.4 Kips

Explanation:

GIven

W = 18 Kips

μ₁ = 0.30

μ₂ = 0.60

a) P = ?

We get F₁  and F₂ as follows:

F₁ = μ₁*W = 0.30*18 Kips = 5.4 Kips

F₂ = μ₂*Nef = 0.6*Nef

Then, we apply

∑Fy = 0   (+↑)

Nef*Cos 12º -  F₂*Sin 12º = W

⇒   Nef*Cos 12º -  (0.6*Nef)*Sin 12º = 18

⇒   Nef = 21.09 Kips

Wedge moves if

P ≥ F₁ + F₂*Cos 12º + Nef*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 5.4 Kips + 0.6*21.09 Kips*Cos 12º + 21.09 Kips*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) For the static equilibrium of base plate

Q = F₁ = 5.4 Kips

We can see the pic shown in order to understand the question.

Do you think that individuals with the same disabilities have the same needs? If your answer is yes, how? /No, why?​
Blababa [14]

Disability is extremely diverse. While some health conditions associated with disability result in poor health and extensive health care needs, others do not. However, all people with disability have the same general health care needs as everyone else, and therefore need access to mainstream health care services.
