How much water do you add  to make 12% sugar syrup using 5g sugar?

Mathematics
2 answers:
Alchen [17]3 years ago

so the syrup is just water and sugar, we know that the sugar percent is just 12%, and that happens to be 5grams.

now 100% - 12% is 88%, so the 88% leftover will just be water.

if 12% is 5g, how much is 88%?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 5&12\\ x&88 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{5}{x}=\cfrac{12}{88}\implies \cfrac{5}{x}=\cfrac{3}{22}\implies 110=3x \\\\\\ \cfrac{110}{3}=x\implies 36\frac{2}{3}=x

Answer:

36\dfrac{2}{3} g of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that 5 g of sugar form 12%. Let x g be the amount of water needed. The total amount of syrup will be x+5 g. Then

5 g - 12%,

x+5 g - 100%.

Mathematically, you can write a proportion:

\dfrac{5}{x+5}=\dfrac{12}{100}\Rightarrow 500=12(x+5),\ 500=12x+60,\ 12x=440, \\ \\x=\dfrac{440}{12}=\dfrac{110}{3}=36\dfrac{2}{3}.

Answer:

B. (2,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex of the function can be found in the most lower value that the function can have.

Since we have an ABS function involved we need to analyse it at first

We know that |x| = x if x> 0 and  |x| = -x if x< 0

if we now change x by x-2 (the content of our ABS function involved, we have the following

|x-2| = x-2 if x-2> 0

|x-2| = -x+2 if x-2< 0

Those inequaiities have a common solution

x-2=0, this means that x=2 is the lowest value the ABS(X-2) has and it is equals to zero.

So by evaluating x=2 in the given function we will obtain its vertex.

leading to f(2)=6 |2-2|-5= -5

Hence the point (2,-5) is the vertex of our function

You purchase two bottles of sunscreen and a hat. The hat costs$6.50. you pay 6% sales tax. You pay a total of $16.43. How much d
Alik [6]

Solution:

Let the bottle of  sunscreen cost be $x. Then we can write

($x+ $6.50)+6%($x+ $6.50)=$16.43

Now solve this for x as below

($x+ $6.50)+\frac{6}{100}($x+ $6.50)=$16.43\\

\frac{100x+650+6x+39}{100}=16.43\\&#10;\\&#10;106x+689=1643\\&#10;\\&#10;106x=1643-689\\&#10;\\&#10;106x= 954\\&#10;\\&#10;x=9\\

Hence the  bottle of sunscreen cost $9.

What is the solution set? 1/2x - 6.5 &gt; 12
Nana76 [90]
Answer: x > 37
Step 1: You add 6.5 to both sides so you end up with:
                    1/2x > 18.5
Step 2: You then Multiple both sides by the reciprocal of 1/2 which is 2/1.
                    (2/1)1/2x > 18.5(2/1)
Step 3: Work it out and you will have x by itself.
                    x > 37

The radius of a circle is decreasing at a rate of 6.56.56, point, 5 meters per minute. At a certain instant, the radius is 12121
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The rate of change of the area of the circle is  approximately -490.09 \ m^2/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\frac{dr}{dt} = -6.5 \ m/min

radius r =12 \ m

We need to find the rate of change of the area of the circle at that instant.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Area of the circle is given by π times square of the radius.

framing in equation form we get;

A= \pi r^2

to find the rate of change of the area of the circle at that instant we need to take the derivative on both side.

\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{d(\pi r^2)}{dt}\\\\\frac{dA}{dt}= 2\pi r \frac{dr}{dt}

Substituting the given values we get;

\frac{dA}{dt}= 2\times \pi \times 12 \times -6.5\\\\\frac{dA}{dt}\approx -490.09 \ m^2/min

Hence The rate of change of the area of the circle is  approximately -490.09 \ m^2/min.
