<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>Misty needs 27.13 ounces of 72% acid and 57.87% of 25% acid solution.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

85 ounces of 40% acid solution = 85 (0.4) = 34

Also, x + y = 85 ... (1)

0.72x + 0.25y = 34  

72x + 25y = 3400 ...(2)

multiply eq (1) by 25, we get 25x + 25y = 2125 ... (3)

subtracting eq(2) and (3), we get 47x = 1275

x = 27.13 substitute in eq(1), we get

y = 57.87

Misty needs 27.13 ounces of 72% acid and 57.87% of 25% acid solution.

If you know that -2 is a zero of f(x) = x^3 + 7x^2 + 4x - 12, explain how to solve the equation.

First you have to figure out what could make f(x) = 0 to get rid of the cube. I'm going to test the array of data, x = -2, x = -3, and x = -4 because this type of equation probably has more negative values given that if you plug in some values the cubed-values and squared-values will surpass the "-12". Plug this into a calculator.
x^3 + 7x^2 + 4x - 12
f(-2) = -8 + 28 - 8 - 12 = 0

So you know that when x = -2, f(x) = 0. Divide "(x + 2)" from the equation and you will get... x^2 + 5x - 6. Now this is a simple polynomial one that you can figure to be (x + 6) (x - 1) just by looking at it because -6 multiplied by 1 is negative 6 and you see 5 and know that 6 - 1 = 5.

The solution is (x + 6) (x - 1) (x + 2) meaning that when x = -6, 1, or -2, f(x) is 0.

Identify the type of observational study​ (cross-sectional, retrospective, or​ prospective) described below. A research company
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Cross Sectional

Step-by-step explanation:

A cross sectional is one in which an association is developed between a risk factor or an outcome.

In the given question the device is used to record the viewing habits of about 2500 ​households, and the data collected today will be used to determine  the proportion of households tuned to a particular news program. There will be risk factor in today's research with the future developed program which will the outcome.

For example there are 20 students in my class who cannot write. So I develop a program to help them write. But the next year there may not be any student who would require such help.So there's a risk factor associated with the outcome.

Cross sectional results are recorded in a two ways table showing do's and don'ts.

Please i need some help on this question
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

1) For 3 tickets, the cost is $12

2) For 5 tickets, the cost is $20

3) $28 can purchase 7 tickets

4) For 10 tickets, the cost is $40

Step-by-step explanation:

1) For 3 tickets

8 = 2

x = 3

(8 ÷ x) = (2 ÷ 3)

Cross multiply,

2x = 8 x 3

2x = 24

x = 24 ÷ 2

x = $12

Use the same principle for the other questions. Use X (or any other variable) to represent the missing value, I e. the value you are calculating.

I hope this helps.
