A pharmacist has 40% and 80% of iodine solutions on hand. How many liters of each iodine solution will be required to produce 4 liters of a 50% iodine mixture?
.
Let x = liters of 40% iodine
then
4-x = liters of 80% iodine
Using algebra:
.40x + .80(4-x) = .50(4)
.40x + 3.20-.80x = 2
3.20-.40x = 2
x = 4 liters (40% iodine)
80% iodine:
4-x = 4-4 = 0 liters needed (80% iodine)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
Line 1
Equation in slope intercept form
The slope is equal to
Line 2
Equation in slope intercept form
The slope is equal to
we know that
If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of the slopes is equal to -1)
so
substitute
Just simplify?

Answer:
Your answer for the above equation is D
Answer:
A) x = 3 or -1
B) x = -7
C)x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
A) x² + 2x + 1 = 2x² - 2
Rearranging, we have;
2x² - x² - 2x - 2 - 1 = 0
x² - 2x - 3 = 0
Using quadratic formula, we have;
x = [-(-2) ± √((-2)² - 4(1 × -3))]/(2 × 1)
x = (2 ± √16)/2
x = (2 + 4)/2 or (2 - 4)/2
x = 6/2 or -2/2
x = 3 or -1
B) ((x + 2)/3) - 2/15 = (x - 2)/5
Multiply through by 15 to get;
5(x + 2) - 2 = 3(x - 2)
5x + 10 - 2 = 3x - 6
5x - 3x = -6 - 10 + 2
2x = -14
x = -14/2
x = -7
C) log(2x + 3) = 2log x
From log derivations, 2 log x is same as log x²
Thus;
log(2x + 3) = logx²
Log will cancel out to give;
2x + 3 = x²
x² - 2x - 3 = 0
Using quadratic formula, we have;
x = [-(-2) ± √((-2)² - 4(1 × -3))]/(2 × 1)
x = (2 ± √16)/2
x = (2 + 4)/2 or (2 - 4)/2
x = 6/2 or -2/2
x = 3 or -1
