Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of ounces of

A = x

B = y

A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 40% salt and Solution B is 55% salt. She wants to obtain 90 ounces of a mixture that is 45% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?

Our system of equations is given as

x + y = 90.... Equation 1

x = 90 - y

40% × x + 55% × y = 45% × 90 ounces

0.4x + 0.55y = 40.5....Equation 2

We substitute 90 - y for x in Equation 2

If 2k, 5k-1 and 6k+2 are the first 3 terms of an arithmetic sequence, find k and the 8th term​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference d of an arithmetic sequence is

d = a_{2} - a_{1} = a_{3} - a_{2}

Substitute in values and solve for k, that is

5k - 1 - 2k = 6k + 2 - (5k - 1)

3k - 1 = 6k + 2 - 5k + 1

3k - 1 = k + 3 ( subtract k from both sides )

2k - 1 = 3 ( add 1 to both sides )

2k = 4 ⇒ k = 2

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

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a_{1} + (n - 1)d

a_{1} = 2k = 2 × 2 = 4 and

d = 5k - 1 - 2k = 3k - 1 = (3 × 2) - 1 = 5

Hence

a_{8} = 4 + (7 × 5) = 4 + 35 = 39

(b)The graph of y = g(x) is shown. Draw the graph of g(2x). Will award 100 Brainly points
ivanzaharov [21]

Using the stated transformation, the graph of g(2x) is given at the end of the answer.

<h3>Horizontal stretch and compression</h3>

An horizontal stretch or an horizontal compression happens when a constant is multiplied at the domain of the function, as follows:

g(x) = f(ax).

The definition of stretch or compression depends on the value of the constant a, as follows:

  • If a > 1, it is a compression by a factor of 1/a.
  • If a < 1, it is a stretch by a factor of 1/a.

In this problem, the rule is:

f(x) = g(2x).

Meaning that f(x) is an horizontal compression by a factor of 1/2 of g(x), and then the vertices are given as follows:

  • (0,0).
  • (1,-4).
  • (2,-2).

That is, in each vertex, the x-coordinate was divided by 2, and thus the graph with these vertices is given at the end of the answer.

si tienes una mesa de 25m de largo por 10 de ancho ¿ en cuanto varíaran cada una de sus dimensiones para que sin alterar su supe
Murrr4er [49]

responder: 8,75

Cada dimensión será de 8,75 porque si la longitud es de 25 m de largo y el ancho es 10, si los sumamos y obtendremos 35. Así que 35 dividido entre 4 es 8,75
