keeping in mind that

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so if the amount of the 60% solution is "x" gallons, then the acid in it is 0.6x, and likewise the 40% solution has 0.4y gallons.


\bf \begin{array}{lcccl} &\stackrel{solution}{gallons}&\stackrel{\textit{\% of }}{amount}&\stackrel{\textit{gallons of }}{amount}\\ \cline{2-4}&\\ \textit{60\% sol'n}&x&0.6&0.6x\\ \textit{40\% sol'n}&y&0.4&0.4y\\ \cline{2-4}&\\ mixture&200&0.55&110 \end{array}


\bf \begin{cases} x+y=200\implies \boxed{y}=200-x\\\\ 0.6x+0.4y=110\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ 0.6x+0.4\left( \boxed{200-x} \right)=110 \end{cases} \\\\\\ 0.6x-0.4x+80=110\implies 0.2x=30\implies x=\cfrac{30}{0.2}\implies \blacktriangleright x=150 \blacktriangleleft \\\\\\ y=200-x\implies \blacktriangleright y=50 \blacktriangleleft

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of years needed for the company to process a certain amount of milk, we use the given function which relates the number of years, x, and the gallons of milk, y. We simply substitute the number of gallons to y and solve for x.  

y = x^6 − 9x^4 + 70x^2

630 = x^6 − 9x^4 + 70x^2

Solving for x, we will have

x = 4.8866 years or approximately 5 years

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure, AP = BP = PC.

And we want to prove that ∠ABC is a right angle.

Since AP = BP and BP = PC, we can create two isosceles triangles: ΔAPB and ΔCPB.

By the definition of isosceles triangles, in ΔAPB, ∠PAB and ∠PBA are equivalent. Let the measure of each of them be <em>x°</em>.

Likewise, in ΔCPB, ∠PCB and ∠PBC are equivalent.

And since AP = BP = PC, each of the angles∠PCB and ∠PBC will also be equivalent to <em>x°.</em>

<em />

And since the sum of the interior angles of a triangle total 180°, we acquire:

\angle PAB+\angle PBA+\angle PCB+\angle PBC=180

Since they are all equivalent:

4x=180

Hence:

x=45^\circ

∠ABC is the sum of ∠PBA and ∠PBC, each of which measures 45°. Hence:

\angle ABC=\angle PBA+\angle PBC=45+45=90^\circ

Below is the graph of y= x.<br> Translate it to make it the graph of y=<br> x-1 + 4.
Oduvanchick [21]
  • First, to shift the graph of y=x 1 unit to the right, so y=x-1
  • Second, to shift the graph of y=x-1 4 units to the left, so y=x-1+4

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

To translate the graph of a function is part of Rigid Transformations because the basic shape of the graph is unchanged

Let \ c \ be \ a \ positive \ real \ number. \ \mathbf{Vertical \ and \ horizontal \ shifts} \\ in \ the \ graph \ of \ y=f(x) \ are \ represented \ as \ follows:

\bullet \ Vertical \ shift \ c \ units \ \mathbf{upward}: \\ h(x)=f(x)+c \\ \\ \bullet \ Vertical \ shift \ c \ units \ \mathbf{downward}: \\ h(x)=f(x)-c

\bullet \ Horizontal \ shift \ c \ units \ to \ the \ right \ \mathbf{right}: \\ h(x)=f(x-c) \\ \\ \bullet \ Horizontal \ shift \ c \ units \ to \ the \ left \ \mathbf{left}: \\ h(x)=f(x+c)

In this case, we have the graph of:

y=x

And we need to translate it to make it the graph of:

y=x-1+4

According to our rules we need:

  • First, to shift the graph of y=x 1 unit to the right, so y=x-1
  • Second, to shift the graph of y=x-1 4 units to the left, so y=x-1+4

But y=x-1+4 is the same as y=x+3, so the previous steps can be simplified as:

  • Shifting the graph of y=x 3 unit to the left.

Below are shown those graphs:

  • The blue one is y=x
  • The red one is y=x-1+4

Given that (6 3) is on the graph of f(x) find the corresponding point for the function f(-1/2x)
Vlada [557]
\bf \begin{array}{rllll}&#10;(6&,&3)&f(x)\\&#10;x&&y\\\\&#10;(-\frac{1}{2}x&,&3)&f(-\frac{1}{2}x)\\\\&#10;(-\frac{1}{2}\cdot 6&,&3)\\\\&#10;(-3&,&3)&#10;\end{array}

keep in mind that, a negative coefficient to "x", will make the graph reflect over the y-axis.
