Answer:

Quantity of solution B required is 300 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a" be quantity of solution A required

Let "b" be quantity of solution B required

We are given Solution A is 19% alcohol and Solution B is 14% alcohol and that the resulting mixture has 156 milliliters of pure alcohol

Thus;

0.19a + 0.14b = 156 - - - (eq 1)

Also, He uses twice as much Solution A as Solution B.

Thus;

a = 2b

Putting 2b for a in eq 1 gives;

0.19(2b) + 0.14b = 156

0.38b + 0.14b = 156

0.52b = 156

b = 156/0.52

b = 300 ml

Quantity of solution B required is 300 ml

in a first aid kit the ratio of large bandages to small bandages is 5 to 2. Based on this ratio, how many large bandages are in
Radda [10]
The best way to answer this question is to set up the first sentence as a ratio of large bandages to total bandages. You would write 5 large bandages to 7 total bandages to 7 total bandages.  Then you would make this equivalent to x number of large bandages to 60 total.  It would look like this 5:7 = x:60.  You could use cross products to multiply 60 by 5 to get 300.  7 times x also should equal 300.  Unfortunately, this example will not leave us with a whole number of bandages, but 300/7 is a repeating decimal or a mixed number (42 6/7 large bandages).

The graph is falling on the left hand side and rising on the right hand side.

Since the two ends of graph are in opposite direction, the exponent of variable has to be odd. For an even exponent of leading term, the two ends are in same direction.

Since the graph is falling on left and rising on right, this indicates that the coefficient of leading term is positive.

So, the leading term must have:
1) Odd exponent
2) Positive Coefficient

Thus, option Fourth is the correct answer

The fair spinner shown in the diagram above is spun.
Katena32 [7]

Unable to provide a definitive answer due to lack of diagram.

Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiples of 6:

Multiples of 6 are numbers obtained when 6 is multiplied by an integer. Such as

(6*1) = 6, (6*2)=12, (6*3) = 18..... and so on.

Probability is calculated by finding the ratio of the required outcome and total possible outcomes.

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(multiple of 6) = number of multiples of 6 / total number of possible outcomes

If number of 6 multiples = 5 and

Total number of faces in the spinner = 20

Then :

P(multiple of 6) = 5/20 = 1/4
