One canned orange juice is 25% orange juice another is 5% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in orde

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$X = \frac{1.6 - 0.05Y}{0.25}= 6.4 -0.2 Y$ (3)

Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:

$0.75(6.4 -0.2 Y) +0.95 Y = 18.4$

And solving for Y we got:

$4.8 -0.15 Y +0.95 Y = 18.4$

$0.8 Y = 13.6$

$Y = 17$

And solving for X from equation (3) we got:

$X= 6.4 -0.2*17 = 3$

So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we can work with the concentration of water and orange juice.

Let X the amount for the orange juice with 25% content and Y the amount for the orange juice with 5% of content

Using the concentration of orange juice we have:

$0.25 X + 0.05 Y = 20*0.08$ (1)

And for the water we have:

$0.75 X + 0.95Y = 20*0.92$ (2)

If we solve for X from equation (1) we got:

$X = \frac{1.6 - 0.05Y}{0.25}= 6.4 -0.2 Y$ (3)

Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:

$0.75(6.4 -0.2 Y) +0.95 Y = 18.4$

And solving for Y we got:

$4.8 -0.15 Y +0.95 Y = 18.4$

$0.8 Y = 13.6$

$Y = 17$

And solving for X from equation (3) we got:

$X= 6.4 -0.2*17 = 3$

So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration

What is the vertex of g(x) = –3x2 + 18x + 2?

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

$(3,29)$

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a formula that can be used to find the x-value of the vertex of the parabola. This formula is $x=\frac{-b}{2a}$

We have the function $g(x)=-3x^2+18x+2$

From this function, we can find that

$a=-3\\b=18\\c=2$

We can plug in our know values into the formula to get

$x=\frac{-18}{2(-3)\\} \\x=\frac{-18}{-6} \\\\x=3$

Then we can plug in our x-value to find the y-value of the vertex

$g(3)=-3(3)^2+18(3)+2\\\\g(3)=-3(9)+54+2\\\\g(3)=-27+54+2\\\\g(3)=29$

This means that the vertex would be $(3,29)$

Ming plays video games online.

Vlad1618 [11]

Ming needs to play for 15 hours to get 500 points. They gave him 200 for signing up, so 500-200=300 more points needed. 300 divided by 20= 15 more hours.
