Answer:
274 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
Often medical solutions expressed as a percentage are not really a percentage as such. A percentage is the ratio of two quantities with the same units.
Here, the context given by the problem suggests the "25%" solution is really (25 g)/(100 mL). That is, the units are grams and milliliters--different units.
With that assumption, we want to find the volume (v) of solution needed to deliver 6 g of medicine. An appropriate proportion* is ...
v/(6 g) = (100 mL)/(25 g)
v = (6 g)(100 mL)/(25 g) = 24 mL
So, the total volume of the infusion is ...
250 mL +24 mL = 274 mL
_____
* The concentration is given in terms of g/mL, but we have used a proportion that is mL/g. The reason for that is we want the variable to be in the numerator of the ratio. The variable here represents volume, so we have written the proportion with volumes in the numerators.
Having the variable in the numerator means the equation can be solved in one step--by multiplying by its denominator.
Answer:
y=1/2x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
-4y=4-2x
4y=4-2x
y=-1+1/2x
y=1/2x-1
Answer:
It will take about 35.49 hours for the water to leak out of the barrel.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
be the depth of water in the barrel at time
, where
is measured in inches and
in hours.
We know that water is leaking out of a large barrel at a rate proportional to the square root of the depth of the water at that time. We then have that

where
is a constant of proportionality.
Separation of variables is a common method for solving differential equations. To solve the above differential equation you must:
Multiply by

Multiply by 

Take integral

Integrate

Isolate 

We know that the water level starts at 36, this means
. We use this information to find the value of
.


At t = 1, y = 34

So our formula for the depth of water in the barrel is

To find the time,
, at which all the water leaks out of the barrel, we solve the equation

Thus, it will take about 35.49 hours for the water to leak out of the barrel.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It's an exponential function but it is going in the negative direction. So now you know there has to be a negative in front of the function meaning it can only be c or d. Since we know its a exponential function. If we set x = 0, it will give us the y intercept. Which should be 1. However it is -2. Therefore it it multiplied by -2 meaning d is right answer
Answer:
(1, 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
- 2x - y = - 4 → (1)
x + 2y = 5 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by 2 and adding result to (1) will eliminate x- term
2x + 4y = 10 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x
0 + 3y = 6
3y = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 2
Substitute y = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (2)
x + 2(2) = 5
x + 4 = 5 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
x = 1
solution is (1, 2 )
