The tank is filled up at a total rate of 10 gal/min, and currently contains 500 gal of solution. It can hold up to 1000 gal, so it will take time <em>t</em> to fill it up completely:

500 gal = (10 gal/min) <em>t</em>

<em>t</em> = (500 gal) / (10 gal/min)

<em>t</em> = 50 min

In that time,

(8 gal/min) (50 min) = 400 gal of cola

and

(2 gal/min) (50 min) = 100 gal of cherry syrup

are added to the tank, so that when it's full, the tank contains 850 gal of cola and 150 gal of syrup.

So 150 gal of the total 1000 gal of solution is cherry syrup, or (150 gal)/(1000 gal) = 15/100 = 15% of the mixture.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The amount of Kroner that can be bought from 1/5 of one dollar.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that goods that cost 1/5 of one dollar in the U.S. cost one kroner in Denmark. We are asked to find the the real exchange rate that would be computed as how many Danish goods per U.S. goods.

The real exchange rate tells us how much foreign currency can be exchanged for a unit of domestic currency.

It also tells us that how much the goods and services in the domestic country can be exchanged for the goods and services in a foreign country.

Therefore, the real exchange rate would be the amount of Kroner that can be bought from 1/5 of one dollar.

Svetlanka [38]

Let X be the iq score of adults. X is normally distributed with mean of 100 and standard deviation of 20.

If all iq scores are converted to z -scores then we will get z scores. And the z score is standard normal variable with mean=0 and standard deviation =1

Hence the mean and standard deviation of of all z scores will be 0 and 1 respectively.
