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 box-and-whisker plot below represents some data set. What percentage of the
Alex

Considering the given box-and-whisker plot, it is found that 50% of the data values are between 16 and 72.

<h3>What does a box-and-whisker plot shows?</h3>

A box and whisker plot shows five things:

  • The minimum value.
  • The 25th percentile, which is the median of the bottom 50%.
  • The median, which splits the entire data-set into two halfs, the bottom 50% and the upper 50%.
  • The 75th percentile, which is the median of the upper 50%.
  • The maximum value.

From this plot, we have that:

  • The 25th percentile is of 16.
  • The 75th percentile is of 72.

Hence, 50% of the data values are between 16 and 72.

Use the expression -3/7+10
Aleks [24]

Answer:

a. Jake told the negative value of the expression which cannot be equivalent to the original expression.

b. 10 - $ \frac{\textbf{3}}{\textbf{7}} $ g

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The given expression is: $ \frac{-3}{7}g + 10 $

Multiplying through out by -, we get:

$ - 10 + \frac{3}{7}g $ which was the expression given by Jake. Since, it is the negative of the original one, they cannot be equivalent.

b. $ -\frac{3}{7}g + 10 = 10 - \frac{3}{7}g $

$ = \frac{70 - 3g}{7} $

Hence, the answer.

PLEASE HELP ME 30POINTS +BRAINLY
Serga [27]

1) If a die is rolled once, determine the probability of rolling a 4: Rolling a 4 is an event with 1 favorable outcome (a roll of 4) and the total number of possible outcomes is 6 (a roll of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6). Thus, the probability of rolling a 4 is \frac{1}{6}.

If a die is rolled once, determine the probability of rolling at least a 4: Rolling at least 4 is an event with 3 favorable outcomes (a roll of 4, 5, or 6) and the total number of possible outcomes is again 6. Thus, the probability of rolling at least a 4 is \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}.

<h3>Here are two more examples: </h3>

If a coin is flipped twice, determine the probability that it will land heads both times:

Favorable outcomes: 1 -- HH

Possible outcomes: 4 -- HH, HT, TH, TT

Thus, the probability that the coin will land heads both times is \frac{1}{4}.

If Dan grabs one sock from a drawer containing 3 white socks, 4 blue socks, and 5 yellow socks, what is the probability that he will grab a white sock?

Favorable outcomes: 3 (3 white socks)

Possible outcomes: 12 (3 white socks + 4 blue socks + 5 yellow socks)

Thus, the probability that Dan will grab a white sock is \frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4}.

Three green jelly bean, five red jelly beans and two orange jelly bean are in a bag.
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

3/50

Step-by-step explanation:

3 g, 5 r, 2 o

3 + 5 + 2 = 10

Orange = 2 jelly beans

Probability of selecting an orange jelly bean: 2/10 or 1/5

If you put the jelly bean back in, there is still 10 jelly beans.

Green = 3 jelly beans

Probability of selecting a green jelly bean: 3/10

Multiply the probabilities:

1/5 x 3/10

= 3/50
