Answer:

<h3>              0.125 galon of 35% acid solution</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5 gallon of a 10% acid solution

10%•0.5 = 0.05 gallon of acid in that solution

x gallon of 35% acid solution

35%•x = 0.35x  gallons of acid in that solution

0.05 + 0.35x  total of gallons of acid in both solutions

(0.5+x) gallons of 15% acid solution

15%(0.5+x) = 0.15(0.5+x)  gallons of acid in that solution

the amount of gallons of acid didn't change after mixing, so:

0.05 + 0.35x = 0.15(0.5 + x)

0.05 + 0.35x = 0.075 + 0.15x

0.35x - 0.15x = 0.075  - 0.05

0.2x = 0.025

 ×5         ×5  

x = 0.125

The graphs below are both absolute value functions. The equation of the redgraph is f(x) = |xl. Which of these is the equation o
grigory [225]

ANSWER

\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}|x|

EXPLANATION

We want to find the absolute value function for the line in blue.

The general form of an absolute value function is:

y=a|x-h|+k

where (h, k) = vertex

From the line, the vertex of the graph in blue is:

(0,0)

To find a, we have to pick a point (x, y) on the line and input it into the general function.

Let us pick (2, 1).

Therefore, we have:

\begin{gathered} 1=a|2-0|+0 \\ 1=a|2|=2a \\ \Rightarrow a=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the absolute value function is:

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{1}{2}|x-0|+0 \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2}|x| \end{gathered}

The formula s = StartRoot StartFraction S A Over 6 EndFraction EndRoot gives the length of the side, s, of a cube with a surface
jeyben [28]

Answer:

2.83 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for surface area of cube = 6s²

Where

s = side length of cube

S.A = 6s²

s² = S.A/6

s = √S.A /6

For cube a

Surface area = 1200 in²

Hence,

side length = √1200/6

Side length = √200

= 14.14 inches

For cube b

Surface area = 768 in²

Hence,

side length = √768/6

Side length = √128

= 11.13 inches

How much longer is the side of a cube with a surface area of 1,200 square inches than a cube with the surface area of 768 square inches?

Therefore,

14.14 inches - 11.13 inches

= 2.83 inches
