Y = 12% = 0.12

y = 100(0.05) + x(0.2) / 100 + x
0.12 = 5 + 0.2x / 100 + x
0.12( 100 + x ) = 5 + 0.2x
12 + 0.12x = 5 + 0.2x
7 = 0.08x
x = 87.5

hope this help

Answer:

87.5 ml is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : You want to mix a 5% blue dye with a 20% blue dye to make a 12% blue dye. The function y =100(0.05)+\frac{(0.2)x}{100+x} gives the concentration y of blue dye after you add x mL of the 20% dye to 100 mL of the 5% dye.

To find : How much of the 20% dye must you add to get a dye that is 12% concentrated?

Solution :

Let x be the concentration.

According to question,

y = 12% = 0.12  

We have given,

y =\frac{100(0.05)+(0.2)x}{100+x}

Put y=0.12,

0.12=\frac{100(0.05)+(0.2)x}{100+x}

0.12\times (100+x)=5+(0.2)x

12+0.12x=5+(0.2)x

12-5=(0.2)x-0.12x

7=0.08x

x=\frac{7}{0.08}

x=87.5

Therefore, 87.5 ml is needed.

Which of the following equations have infinitely many solutions? Choose All that apply. A: 37x-37=37x-37 B: 74x-37=74-37 C: 73x-
vredina [299]

Answer:

(A), (C) and (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation will have infinite solutions if both sides of the equal sign are the exact same thing, for instance 4x+4=4x+4. (You can test this with any value of x and find that they all work!)

So to find the equations that have infinite solutions, we need to see which have the same exact sides.

37x-37 = 37x-37 have the same thing on each side: 37x-37\\, so this has infinite solutions.

74x-37 = 74-37 does not have the same thing on each side, so it doesn’t have infinite solutions (it has 1)

73x-37 = 73x-37 has the same thing on each side: 73x-37, so this has infinite solutions.

And finally, x-37=x-37 has the same thing on each side: x-37, so it has infinite solutions.

Hope this helped!

The graph shows the function f(x) = |x – h| + k. What is the value of h?
kherson [118]

Answer:

h = -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

h is the amount of <em>right</em>-shift in the translation of the function. Here, the shift is 1.5 units to the <em>left</em> (and 3.5 units down). This make h = -1.5 (and k = -3.5).
