Answer:

x is mL of 25% acid and y is mL of 50% acid

We set up 2 equations:

A) x + y = 250

B) .25 x + .50y = .35 * 250 which equals

B) .25x + .50y = 87.50  Multiplying A) by -.5

A) -.5x -.5y = -125  adding the equations we get

-.25x = -37.50

x = 150 mL

y = 100 mL

Find the x-intercepts of f(x) = x2 + 7x + 10.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

x = - 5, x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = x² + 7x + 10

To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is

x² + 7x + 10 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 2)(x + 5) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

The x- intercepts are (- 5, 0) and (- 2, 0 )
