Answer:

  62.5 oz of 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the number of ounces of pure syrup. Then (100-p) is the number of ounces of 60% syrup. The amount of maple syrup in the desired mix is ...

  p +0.60(100 -p) = 0.85(100)

  0.40p +60 = 85 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.40p = 25 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 60

  p = 62.5 . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.4

62.5 ounces of pure syrup should be mixed with the diluted syrup to make 100 ounces of 85% maple syrup.

_____

The other 37.5 ounces will be 60% syrup.

The function f(x) = –x2 – 4x + 5 is shown on the graph. On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens down. It goes through (negative
madam [21]

The true statement is:

"The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

<h3>Which statements are true?</h3>

Here we have the quadratic function:

f(x) = -x^2 - 4x + 5

And we want to see which of the given statements are true.

The first one is:

"The domain is al real numbers less than or equal to -2"

This is false, for all quadratic functions the domain is the set of all real numbers (unless the domain is defined).

The second statement is:

" The domain of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Also false

Third one:

" The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to −2"

The range of a quadratic function with a negative leading coefficient will be the set of all the values smaller than the y-value of the vertex.

In this case, the quadratic function is:

f(x) = -x^2 - 4x + 5

So the vertex is at:

x = 4/(2*-1) = -2\\

Then the y-value of the vertex is:

f(-2) = -(-2)^2 - 4*(-2) + 5 = -4 + 8 + 5 = 9

So the range is the set of all real numbers less than or equal to 9.

So the above statement is false, and the final one:

"The range of the function is all real numbers less than or equal to 9."

Is the true statement.

A square has an area of 256 square meters. How long is each side?<br><br> _Meters by _ meters
Lorico [155]
Hello!

First, let's write an equation for the problem. 
\sqrt{256}

Now, all you have to do is solve it. 
\sqrt{256} = 16

Each side is 16 meters. 

I hope this helps!
