Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For mixture problems, it is convenient to define a variable to represent the amount of the greatest contributor. Let x represent the amount of 22% solution in the mix. Then 4.8-x is the amount of 10% solution.
The amount of alcohol in the mix is ...
0.22x +0.10(4.8-x) = 0.12(4.8)
Eliminating parentheses, we have ...
0.22x -0.10x +0.10(4.8) = 0.12(4.8)
Subtracting (0.10)(4.8) and combining x-terms gives ...
0.12x = 0.02(4.8)
x = (0.02/0.12)(4.8) = 0.8 . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient
The scientist needs 0.8 L of 22% solution and 4.0 L of 10% solution.

Answer:
A. Starting at the origin, go 3.5 spaces to the right and then 4 spaces up.
Step-by-step explanation:
if you were to plot this then the point would be (3.5,4) instead of (4,3.5)
First you will divide 525 by 100. Then you multiply your answer by 4. That will equal 21
Answer:
-123
Step-by-step explanation:
The remainder theorem says that when a polynomial is divided by a linear factor x - c (note the minus sign), the remainder is the value of the polynomial at x = c.
When a polynomial P(x) is divided by x - c, the remainder is P(c). In other words, to find the remainder, plug in c for x.
You're dividing by x + 4 which is the same thing as x - (-4) -- the role of c is being played by -4.
3(–4)^3 – (–4)^2 – 20(–4) + 5 = –123
