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

Identify the x-intercept and y-intercept of the equation below.
Lady_Fox [76]
Divide by 21 to put the equation in intercept form.
  x/(21/9) + y/(-21/7) = 1
  x/(7/3) + y/(-3) = 1

The x-intercept is (7/3, 0)
The y-intercept is (0, -3)

The 3rd choice is appropriate.

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 13 cm and its hypotenuse measures 17 cm. Find the measure of the other leg. If nece
sammy [17]

To find the lengths of a right triangle, we can use what is called Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

13^2 + b^2 = 17^2

169 + b^2 = 289

b^2 = 120

b = 11.0 cm

The length of the other leg of the triangle is 11.0 cm (rounded).

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 12, y=7

x=30, y=25

x=15, y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

We have :  y = x - 5

x = 12  then y = 7,     y = 12 - 5 = 7

x = 30     25 = x - 5,   x = 25 + 5 = 30

x = 15,  y = 15 - 5 = 10,  y = 10
