<h3>Answer:    410 mL </h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

The ratio of A to B is 5:3

Multiply both parts by x to get 5x:3x

We need 5x parts of A and 3x parts of B

Adding those parts should get us 656 mL total

A+B = total

5x+3x = 656

8x = 656

x = 656/8

x = 82

Therefore, we need 5x = 5*82 = 410 mL of compound A

Also, we need 3x = 3*82 = 246 mL of compound B

In total, we have A+B = 410+246 = 656 mL which helps confirm the answer.

-----------

Side note: The ratio  410:246 reduces to 5:3 after dividing both parts by 82.

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

x= -30

Step-by-step explanation:

√3×sinx+cosx=0

√3sinx=-cosx

√3sinx/-cosx=1

-sinx/cosx=1/√3

-tanx=1/√3

(tan(180-30))=1/√3

tan(-30)=1/√3

Therefore, x= -30

a ladder is leaning against a wall. The ladder reaches 6 ft high on the wall and the base from the ladder is 2 ft from the wall
Katyanochek1 [597]
Ok the ladder and the ground will make a right triangle/right angle. This is because the ground is flat, the wall is straight and only the ladder is leaning/slanted. I hope this helps.

Which represents a function?
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Only the given table represents a function. Option 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is called a function, if there exist a unique value of y for each value of x. It means for each input there exist a unique output.

A function is always a relation but all relations are not function.

In the given table for each value of x, we have unique value of y, therefore the given table represents a function.

In second relation, at x=-2, the values of y are y=10 and y=-7. For single x, there are more than one value of y, therefore the second relation is not a function.

In third relation, at x=6,  the values of y are y=-2 and y=1. For single x, there are more than one value of y, therefore the third relation is not a function.
