Answer:

4 ( 5 - n )

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression:

20 – 4n

Task:  Rewrite the expression for the new weight as a product of two factors.

To do this we simply have to find the highest common factor (HCF) between 20 and 4n

20 = 4 * 5

4n = 4 * n

The HCF = 4

Expressing as a product of two factors;

4 ( 5 - n )

Two fair dice are tossed, and the up face on each die is recorded. Find the probability of observing each of the following event
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When two fair dice are tossed sample space consists of 36 events

(1,1)....(6,6)

A_ The difference of numbers is 2 or less

Favorable outcomes = (1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (2,1) (2,2)(2,3) (2,4) (3,1) (3,2) (3,3) (3,4) (3,5) (4,2) (4,3)(4,5) (4,6) (5,3) (5,4) (5,6)\\

Hence Probability = \frac{19}{36}

B) A 4 does not appear on either die

Then we must not have these

(4,1)(4,2)(4,3) (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)\\(1,4) (2,4) (3,4) (5,4) (6,4)

Hence probability = \frac{36-11}{36} =\frac{25}{36}

C:  The sum of numbers is 10 or more:

FAvourable outcomes are:

(4,6) (5,5) (5,6) (6,5) (6,4)

Probability = \frac{5}{36}

A chemist has two acid solutions in stock: one is a 50% solution, and the other is a 80% solution. How much of each solution sho
arsen [322]
Easy way, visual

                    50---68---80%
Difference        18    12
Invert order to give ratio of 50% and 80%
Ratio                12    18 = 2:3

So by simple proportion:
volume of 50% needed = 100*2/(2+3)=40 mL
volume of 80% needed = 100*3/(2+3)=60 mL

Algebra way
Let x=volume of 50% needed.
Then
0.50*x+0.80*(100-x) = 0.68(100)
Expand and solve for x
0.5x+80-0.8x = 68
0.8x-0.5x = 80-68
0.3x = 12
x=12/0.3 = 40 mL (volume of 50%)
100-x=100-40=60 mL (volume of 80%)
