Answer:

300ml

Step-by-step explanation:

As values are missing in your question, the complete question is:

In the lab, Leila has two solutions that contain alcohol and is mixing them with each other. Solution A is 6% alcohol and Solution B is 20% alcohol. She uses 400 milliliters of Solution A. How many milliliters of Solution B does she use, if the resulting mixture is a 12% alcohol solution?

Considering  x=ml of 20% solution B

Therefore, 400+x=ml of resulting 12% solution

Solution A alcohol+ solution B alcohol= Alcohol solution

6% (400)+ 20%x = 12%(400+x)    ->(converting percentage into decimal)

.06*400+.2x=.12(400+x)

24+.2x=48+.12x

.08x=24

x=24/.08=300 ml

she used 300 milliliters of 20%Solution B in resulting mixture.

An automobile manufacturer would like to know what proportion of its customers are not satisfied with the service provided by th
monitta

Answer:

a) n =1623

b) ME=2.0538\sqrt{\frac{0.21 (1-0.21)}{1623}}=0.0208    

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

n random sample taken

\hat p=0.19 estimated proportion of customers are not satisfied with the service provided by the local dealer

Confidence =0.96 or 96%

Me= 0.02 represent the margin of error

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

Part a

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 96% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.96=0.04 and \alpha/2 =0.02. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-2.0538, z_{1-\alpha/2}=2.0538

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.02 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.19(1-0.19)}{(\frac{0.02}{2.0538})^2}=1622.912  

And rounded up we have that n=1623

Part b

The margin of error is given by:

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    

So then if w replace the value of n obtained from part a we got:

ME=2.0538\sqrt{\frac{0.21 (1-0.21)}{1623}}=0.0208

Can someone please help me in one of these!?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

9) y = -200x + 1200

11) slope = -2

15) $2,450

16) 9 days

Step-by-step explanation:

9) Given the two points from the graph:

Let (x₁, y₁) = (0, 1200)

(x₂, y₂) =  (1, 1000)

Substitute these values into the following slope formula:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = (1000 - 1200)/(1 - 0)

m = -200/1

m = -200

The slope of the line is -200.

Next, we need to determine the y-intercept, which is the point on the graph where it crosses the y-axis. Upon observing the graph, it shows that the line crosses at point (0, 1200). The y-coordinate of this ordered pair is the value of the y-intercept, b = 1200.

Therefore, the linear equation in slope-intercept form is y = -200x + 1200.

<h3>11) Given the points, (5, -18) and (-4, 0): </h3>

Let (x₁, y₁) =(5, -18)

(x₂, y₂) =  (-4, 0)

Substitute these values into the following <u>slope formula</u>:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = \frac{0 - (-18)}{-4 - 5} = \frac{0 + 18}{-9} = -2

Therefore, the slope of the line is -2.

<h3>15) Solve:</h3>

Given the fixed fee of $200, and the $150 per hour after the initial meeting:

We can represent these in slope-intercept form:

y = 150x + 200

y = total cost for the Attorney's services

x = number of hours worked.

The y-intercept in this given problem is $200, which represents the flat fee charged for the initial meeting. While the slope in this equation is $150, which is the hourly rate that an Attorney charges his clients after the initial meeting.

If an Attorney works for 15 hours, then:

Let x = 15, and substitute its value into the equation to find the total cost:

y = 150x + 200

y = 150(15) + 200

y = 2,250 + 200

y = 2,450

Therefore, a client will pay a total of $2,450 for an Attorney's 15 hours of work.

<h3>16) Solve: </h3>

Given the water level on a Lake of 165 inches after a rainstorm, and the water level's receding rate of 3 inches per day:

We can establish the following linear equation to model this given problem:

L = -3d + 165

Where:

L = represents the water level of the Lake

d = number of days that the water level recedes

In order to find the number of days it will take before the water level recedes to 84 inches:

Substitute the value of L = 84 into the equation:

L = -3d + 165

84 = -3d + 165

Subtract 165 from both sides:

84 - 165 = 3d + 165 - 165

-27 = -3d

Divide both sides by  -3:

\frac{-27}{-3} = \frac{-3d}{-3}

9 = d

Therefore, it will take 9 days for the water level to be at 84 inches.

Which set of rational numbers is arranged from least to greatest? 1 over 5, −1.4, negative 1 over 2, 3 3, negative 1 over 2, −1.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Option 4 - -1.4,\ -\frac{1}{2},\ \frac{1}{5},\ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Which set of rational numbers is arranged from least to greatest?

Solution :

The set of rational numbers are

3,\ \frac{1}{5},\ -1.4,\ -\frac{1}{2}

Writing all number in one form,

\frac{1}{5}=0.2

-\frac{1}{2}=-0.5

Now, -1.4<-0.5<0.2<3

From least to greatest the set of natural numbers are

-1.4

So, -1.4,\ -\frac{1}{2},\ \frac{1}{5},\ 3

Therefore, option 4 is correct.
