Candidate C received 15,000 fewer votes than candidate B. If a total of 109,000 votes were cast, how many votes did candidate B

receive?

Answer: Candidate B has 69,500 votes!

Step-by-step explanation:

one easy way to solve this is by dividing 109,000 in half and that gives us

54500 and 54500 but since Candidate C has 15000 less

we subtract 15000 from candidate c and add 15000 from candidate b

which gives us

Candidate C= 39,500 votes

Candidate B= 69,500 votes

please give brainliest!

A 500-gallon tank initially contains 220 gallons of pure distilled water. Brine containing 5 pounds of salt per gallon flows int
Wittaler [7]

Answer: The amount of salt in the tank after 8 minutes is 36.52 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salt in the tank is modelled by the Principle of Mass Conservation, which states:

(Salt mass rate per unit time to the tank) - (Salt mass per unit time from the tank) = (Salt accumulation rate of the tank)

Flow is measured as the product of salt concentration and flow. A well stirred mixture means that salt concentrations within tank and in the output mass flow are the same. Inflow salt concentration remains constant. Hence:

c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = \frac{d(V_{tank}(t) \cdot c(t))}{dt}

By expanding the previous equation:

c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} \cdot c(t)

The tank capacity and capacity rate of change given in gallons and gallons per minute are, respectivelly:

V_{tank} = 220\\\frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} = 0

Since there is no accumulation within the tank, expression is simplified to this:

c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt}

By rearranging the expression, it is noticed the presence of a First-Order Non-Homogeneous Linear Ordinary Differential Equation:

V_{tank} \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + f_{out} \cdot c(t) = c_0 \cdot f_{in}, where c(0) = 0 \frac{pounds}{gallon}.

\frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}} \cdot c(t) = \frac{c_0}{V_{tank}} \cdot f_{in}

The solution of this equation is:

c(t) = \frac{c_{0}}{f_{out}} \cdot ({1-e^{-\frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}}\cdot t }})

The salt concentration after 8 minutes is:

c(8) = 0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}

The instantaneous amount of salt in the tank is:

m_{salt} = (0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}) \cdot (220 gallons)\\m_{salt} = 36.52 pounds

What is the solution to the system of equations?<br> y = -5x + 3<br> y = 1
Gekata [30.6K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y) = (2/5, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute for y and solve for x.

  1 = -5x +3

  -2 = -5x . . . . . . subtract 3

  2/5 = x . . . . . . divide by -5

The solution is (x, y) = (2/5, 1).
