Answer:

B. Subtract

Step-by-step explanation:

Just like when multiplying exponents, you're really just adding them together. This is the same case, when you're "dividing" the exponents, you're really just subtracting them.

A solution containing 12% alcohol is to be mixed with a solution containing 4% alcohol to make 20 gallons of solution containing
stepan [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a solution containing 12% alcohol is to be mixed with a solution containing 4% alcohol to make 20 gallons of solution containing 9% alcohol.

Let x gallons of 12% alcohol be mixed with y gallons of 4% alcohol.

Total gallons= x+y = 20

Alcohol content in the total mixture = 0.12x+0.04y =9% of x+y

0.12x+0.4y=0.09(20)\\12x+4y = 180

b) Two equations are

x+y = 20\\12x+4y = 180

c) This is of the form Ax = B

where A =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1\\12&4\end{array}\right]

Inverse is \frac{1}{4-12} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&-1\\-12&12\end{array}\right]\\=\frac{-1}{8} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&-1\\-12&12\end{array}\right]\\

Solution set is A inverse *B

= x \    12.5\\y  \     7.5

If 24 marbles have a mass of 60g what would be the mass of 60 marbles
blondinia [14]

Answer:

300 g

Step-by-step explanation:

First divide the mass of those 12 marbles (60 g) by the number of marbles which have 60 g mass (12 marbles). You'll get  the answer as 5 g , which means 5 g is the mass of 1 marble. Now multiply the answer by 60 (specification of marbles). You'll have the answer as 300 g.

i.e.

60 / 12 = 5

5 x 60 = 300
