Answer:

23/20

Step-by-step explanation:

To add the fractions we have to make the denominators match so 20 is the least common denominator.

8+15/20

Then add the numerators together and you'll get

23/20

A paint company mixes it's paint with water to create more paint per gallon. They currently have ten gallon jugs which contain 1

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

<h3>Answer: 1.25 gallons</h3>

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

Explanation:

They currently have ten gallon jugs that contain 10% water, so this means 0.10*10 = 1 gallon of the jug is water and the other 10-1 = 9 gallons is paint. This is assuming the cans are just paint and water.

The ratio of paint to water is 90:10 which reduces to 9:1

Often it helps to reduce as much as possible, but it's actually more handy in this case to keep it at 90:10 so you can see the two parts add back up to 100%

--------------

Let x be the amount of water we add. This amount is in gallons.

We start off with 1 gallon of water and it bumps up to 1+x gallons of water.

The overall amount of 10 gallons also bumps up to 10+x gallons.

We want a ratio of 80:20 this time, so we want 20 parts water and 80 parts paint. In other words, we want 20/(20+80) = 20/100 = 20% water

Divide (1+x) over (10+x) to get (1+x)/(10+x). This represents the fraction of water. We want this fraction to be equal to 0.20, which is the 20% water amount. It is also equal to 20/100.

--------------

(1+x)/(10+x) = 20/100

100(1+x) = 20(10+x) ... cross multiply

100+100x = 200+20x ... distribute

100x-20x = 200-100

80x = 100

x = 100/80 ... divide both sides by 80

x = 1.25

You need to add 1.25 gallons of water

--------------

If you add 1.25 gallons of water, then,

amount of water = 1+x = 1+1.25 = 2.25

amount of paint&water = 10+x = 10+1.25 = 11.25

So you'll have 2.25 gallons of water out of 11.25 gallons of water&paint mix

2.25/11.25 = 0.2 = 20% water

This confirms our answer.

--------------

Extra info:

1.25 gallons = 1 gallon + 1/4 gallon

1.25 gallons = 1 gallon + 1 quart

This is because 1 gallon = 4 quarts, so 1 quart = 1/4 gallon.

Which conic's equation has 2 squares with the same signs and different leading coefficients?

Romashka [77]

We want to see which is the conic equation that has 2 squares with the same sign and different leading coefficients.

We will see that it is the equation of the ellipse.

Now let's see why that is the correct answer.

The general conic equation is of the form:

$A*(x - a)^2 + B*(x - b)^2 = R^2$

Where A and B are the leading coefficients, (a, b) is the center of the figure, and R is the average radius of the figure.

For example, if A = B, this would be the equation of a circle, but we must have two different leading coefficients.

If we write:

A = 1/C

B = 1/K

(both are positive, because "it has two squares with the same signs").

Then we get the equation:

$\frac{ (x - a)^2}{C} + \frac{(x - b)^2}{K} = R^2$

We get the equation we wanted.

The same sign in both square parts and different leading coefficients.

The above equation is the general equation of an ellipse.

1) Lithium isotope rations are important to medicine, the 6Li/7Li ratio in a standard reference material was measured several ti

uysha [10]

Answer:

1) $0.0826052-2.776\frac{0.000013424}{\sqrt{5}}=0.082588$

$0.0826052+2.776\frac{0.000013424}{\sqrt{5}}=0.0826219$

b) $ME= 2.776\frac{0.000013424}{\sqrt{5}}=0.0000166653$

And we want 2/3 of the margin of error so then would be: $2/3 ME = 0.00001111$

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And on this case we have that ME =0.00001111016 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (1) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} s}{ME})^2$ (2)

Replacing we got:

$n=(\frac{2.776(0.000013424)}{0.00001111})^2 =11.25 \approx 12$

So the answer for this case would be n=12 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

0.082601, 0.082621, 0.082589, 0.082617, 0.082598

We can calculate the sample mean and deviation with the following formulas:

$\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

$s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

$\bar X=0.0826052$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean

s=0.000013424 represent the sample standard deviation

n=5 represent the sample size

Part 1

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

The degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=5-1=4$

The Confidence level is 0.95 or 95%, and the significance would be $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , the critical value would be using the t distribution with 4 degrees of freedom: $t_{\alpha/2}=2.776$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$0.0826052-2.776\frac{0.000013424}{\sqrt{5}}=0.082588$

$0.0826052+2.776\frac{0.000013424}{\sqrt{5}}=0.0826219$

Part 2

The original margin of error is given by:

$ME= 2.776\frac{0.000013424}{\sqrt{5}}=0.0000166653$

And we want 2/3 of the margin of error so then would be: $2/3 ME = 0.00001111$

The margin of error is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And on this case we have that ME =0.00001111016 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (1) we got:

$n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} s}{ME})^2$ (2)

Replacing we got:

$n=(\frac{2.776(0.000013424)}{0.00001111})^2 =11.25 \approx 12$

So the answer for this case would be n=12 rounded up to the nearest integer
