Answer: 20 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x liter of 10% hydrogen peroxide solution is mixed with y liter of 25% hydrogen peroxide solution to create 30 liters of a 15% hydrogen peroxide solution.

Thus, Total quantity of mixture = 30

⇒ x + y = 30 ---------(1)

And, Total quantity of hydrogen in the mixture is the sum of total quantity of hydrogen in x liter and y liter,

⇒ 10 % of x +25 % of y = 15 % of 30

⇒ 10 x + 25 y = 450

⇒ 2 x + 5 y = 90 ------- (2)

Equation (2) - 2× Equation (1),

⇒ 3 y = 30

⇒ y = 10

Substitute this value in equation (1),

We get,

x + 10 = 30

⇒ x = 20,

Hence, the quantity of 10% solution chemist used to make the 15% solution = x liter = 20 liter.

( Will hand out brainiest) A California condor left its cliff-side nest and soared downwards at a rate of 16 meters per second.
svet-max [94.6K]

First calculate the distance covered going down:

d_down = (16 m / s) * 8 s = 128 m

 

Then the distance going up is:

d_up = 71 m

 

So the distance from the ledge to the nest is:

d = 128 m – 71 m = 57 m

 

Therefore the elevation is:

<span>elevation = 1364 m + 57 m = 1421 m</span>

Use the x-intercept method to find all real solutions of the equation.<br> x^3-8x^2+9x+18=0
meriva

Answer:

a. x=-1,3,\:or\:6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is;

x^3-8x^2+9x+18=0

To solve by the x-intercept method we need to graph the corresponding function using a graphing calculator or software.

The corresponding function is

f(x)=x^3-8x^2+9x+18

The solution to x^3-8x^2+9x+18=0 is where the graph touches the x-axis.

We can see from the graph  that; the x-intercepts are;

(-1,0),(3,0) and (6,0).

Therefore the real solutions are:

x=-1,3,\:or\:6
