Answer:

The salt concentration of the mixed solution = 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

First assuming that the concentration of salt given is on a vol% basis.

First solution has 0.7 gallon of 5% salt

Amount of salt in this solution = 5% × 0.7 = 0.035 gallon

Second solution has 0.3 gallon of 22% salt

Amount of salt in this solution = 22% × 0.3 = 0.066 gallon

Total amount of salt in the resulting solution = 0.035 + 0.066 = 0.101 gallon

Total volume of the resulting solution = 0.7 + 0.3 = 1.00 gallon

Concentration of the mixture of salt = (0.101/1) = 0.101 = 10.1% = 10% to the nearest percent

Hope this Helps!!!

Five gerbils cost p dollars. How many dollars will it cost to buy 1 gerbil? How many dollars will it cost to buy g gerbils? How

Fudgin [204]

5 gerbils = p dollars
1 gerbil = p/5 dollars
g gerbils = pg / 5 dollars

5/p gerbils = 1 dollar
5d/p gerbils = d dollars

How can you change the equation y = 2x + 3 to function notation?

qwelly [4]

Answer:

$f(x)=2x+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing that would need to be done is solving for y. This problem has already done this. The next step is to exchange y for $f(x)$

That is all. This would mean that the function notation for the equation would be: $f(x)=2x+3$

4. The data shows the number of siblings each student in a 9th-grade class has.

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is Mean and standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data set provided, arranged in ascending order is:

S = {0 , 0 , 0 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 3 , 3 , 3 , 4 , 4}

Now, it is provided that Macy was absent when the data was collected and the class guessed she had 4 siblings. When she returned, they found out she actually has 9 siblings.

So, the new data set is:

X = {0 , 0 , 0 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 2 , 3 , 3 , 3 , 4 , 9}

The mean of a data set is the average value representing the entire data.

$\bar X=\frac{1}{n}\sum X_{i}$

The median is the middle value of the data set.

The inter-quartile range is the difference between the first and the third quartile.

The standard deviation is the value that represents how dispersed the data values are.

$SD=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum (X_{i}-\bar X)^{2}}$

From all the above statistic, the mean and standard deviation are the only ones that uses all the observations in the data set to compute their value.

So, on changing one of the 4s by a 9, the set of measures that will be affected are the mean and standard deviation.

Thus, the correct option is Mean and standard deviation.
