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

Mathematics

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

The corresponding sides of two similar triangles are . The corresponding angles of two similar triangles are .
madreJ [45]
If the corresponding sides of two similar triangles have congruent angles than the sides correspond to each other 
in triangle abc
and triangle def 
ab:de
bc:ef
ca:fd
so they correspond in ratio but are not necessarily congruent
if in the similar triangles the sides are equal than the angles will correspond in ratio to add up to 180 degrees
so if triangle abc≈ triangle def
then
∠abc:∠def
∠bca:∠efd
∠cab:∠def

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
Alex Ar [27]
The answer is B.
Slope-intercept line is written as:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept
4 is the y-intercept because the line crosses the y-axis at 4.
The slope is -2 over 5, because slope is written as y over x.
So, if you start at the point at the 4, count 2 spaces down and 5 spaces right. The line crosses the point exactly, which is how you know the slope is accurate.

Please help with 9 &amp; 10
aev [14]

9. You can easily get rid of the decimal fraction by multiplying by 10. This will move the decimal point one place to the right in each number.

However, since all the decimal fractions are even numbers of tenths, you can also turn them to integers by multiplying by 5:

... 3x +24 = 36

_____

10. If you can't describe what the parts of your equation represent, you have no business writing it. Saying you can't describe your equation is the same as saying you don't understand the problem.

It is important to be able to describe the parts of the equation just as it is important to be able to say what the problem is telling you, what it is asking, and what your strategy is for solving it. The parts of the equation are intimately tied with those things: they embody the given information and the strategy of your solution.
