Answer:

Volume of 3% alcohol = 80 ml

Volume of 8% alcohol = 120 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Final volume of 6% alcohol solution = 200 ml

Let the volume of 3% alcohol volume = a ml

Therefore, volume of 8% alcohol = (200 - a) ml

Equation for the given situation will be,

3a + 8(200 - a) = 6×200

3a + 1600 - 8a = 1200

1600 - 5a = 1200

5a = 400

a = 80 ml

Therefore, volume of 3% alcohol to be used = 80 ml

And volume of 8% alcohol to be used = (200 - 80) = 120 ml

Answer:

122 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The two intersecting lines are parallel for this problem, which means that the angle next to angle3 is the same degree measure as the one that is 58 degrees.

Also, remember that two angles next to each other on a straight line are supplementary, meaning that they add to 180 degrees.

When keeping these two things in mind, you can solve like this:

180 = angle3 + 58

180 - 58 = angle3

angle3 = 122

122 degrees

Which sentence correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14

We have to choose the  sentence that correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14.

Since, given 68% data.

We know mean of data lies in middle.

And standard deviation is distribute equally about the mean that is 50% of values less than the mean  and 50% greater than the mean.

So, 68% of data lies

mean - standard deviation = 14 - 4 = 10

mean + standard deviation = 14 + 4 = 18

So, 68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.
