Answer:

5 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of liters of the 17% solution, and represent the percentages as decimal values:

0.1(2) + (0.17)(x) = 0.15(x + 2)

Simplify:

0.2 + 0.17x = 0.15x + 0.3

Solve for x:

0.17x = 0.15x + 0.1

0.02x = 0.1

x = 5

So, you would need 5 liters of a 17% solution to get a 15% solution

Lerok [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, replace f(x) with y ⇒ f(x)=6x-19 ⇒ y=6x-19

Then y with x and x with y  ⇒ y=6x-19 ⇒ x=6y-19

Solve the equation from for y:

           x=6y-19

           x+19=6y dividing with 6

           1/6 x +(19/6) = y

Replace y with f−1(x) ⇒ f−1(x)= 1/6 x +(19/6)

hope this helps!

You ask a neighbor to water a sickly plant while you are on vacation. Without water the plant will die with probability 0.7. Wit
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

0.2416

Step-by-step explanation:

P(forgot to water | dead) = P(forgot and dead) / P(dead)  

->With water it will die with probability 0.45

P(watered and dead) =0.83 x 0.45 = 0.3735

->Without water the plant will die with probability 0.7

P(forgot and dead) = (1-0.83) x 0.7 => 0.17 x 0.7 =>0.119

P(dead) =  P(watered and dead) +P(forgot and dead)

P(dead) = 0.3735 + 0.119= 0.4925

P(forgot to water | dead) =0.119 / 0.4925= 0.2416

Therefore, the probability the neighbor forgot to water the plant is 0.2416
