A mistake was made in mixing the lemonade— PLEASE HELP!!

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

Part A:

4 + x = y

0.5*4 + 1*x = 0.7*y

x = 8/3\ quarts\ of\ 100\%\ solution

y = 20/3\ quarts\ of\ 70\%\ solution

Part B:

x + y = 10

2x + 3y = 23

x = 7 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The inicial concentration of the lemonade is 50%, and the volume is 4 quarts, and we will add x quarts of a lemonade with a concentration of 100%, so the total volume will be y, and the concentration will be 0.7, so we have that:

4 + x = y

0.5*4 + 1*x = 0.7*y

Using the value of y from the first equation in the second one, we have:

2 + x = 0.7*(4 + x)

2 + x = 2.8 + 0.7x

0.3x = 0.8

x = 8/3\ quarts

y = 4 + 8/3 = 20/3\ quarts

Part B:

If he shoots a total of ten targets, we can write the equation:

x + y = 10

Each stationary target is 2 points, and each moving target is 3 points, so if the total points is 23, we have:

2x + 3y = 23

If we subtract the second equation by two times the first one, we have:

2x + 3y - 2*(x + y) = 23 - 2*10

2x + 3y - 2x - 2y = 23 - 20

y = 3

x + 3 = 10 ⇒ x = 7

Describe the roots of the polynomial function shown below.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Graphically. As shown below, the roots of a polynomial are the values of x that make the polynomial zero, so they are where the graph crosses the x-axis, since this is where the y value (the result of the polynomial) is zero. The roots are the two green dots.

Find the missing measures of the following rectangle
Allushta [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

In a rectangle

• All angles are right angles

• the diagonals are congruent

In Δ WXV the sum of the 3 angles = 180°

∠ WXZ = ∠ XWY = \frac{180-64}{2} = \frac{116}{2} = 58°

∠ YXZ = 90° - 58° = 32°

∠ WVZ = 180° - 64° = 116° ( adjacent angles are supplementary )

∠ XWZ = 90° ( by definition of rectangle )

∠ XZY = ∠ WXZ = 58° ( corresponding angles )

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply 1/9 and 3/8. The product of the two factors is 3/ 72. Seeing the two factors on the other hand, we can cancel out 3. Hence the final answer to this problem in lowest terms becomes 1/24.
