What quantity of a 50% acid solution must be mixed with a 20% solution to produce 600 mL of a 45% solution?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

400 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

0.50x + 0.20(600-x) = 0.40*600

50x + 20*600 - 20x = 40*600

30x = 20*600

x = 20*20

x = 400 mL

A woman is randomly selected from the 18-24 age group. For women of this group, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are normally

dybincka [34]

Answer:

0.0274

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is $\mu =114.8$ and the standard deviation is $\sigma =13.1.$

Calculate

$Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

for $X=140:$

$Z=\dfrac{140-114.8}{13.1}\approx 1.9237.$

If $X\sim N(114.8,\ 13.1),$ then $Z\sim N(0,1)$

and

$Pr(X>140)=Pr(Z>1.9237).$

Use table for normal distribution probabilities to get that

$Pr(Z>1.9237)=1-Pr(Z\le 1.9237)=1-0.9726=0.0274.$

Make r the subject of x= e + r/d

neonofarm [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

X=e+r/d

swap both sides

e+r/d=x

subtract e from both sides

e-e+r/d=x-e

r/d=x-e

multiply d to both sides

d×r/d=x-e×d

r=x-e×d

Please help me!<br> Hint: the number is negative

wel

Answer:

$-36$ goes into the box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be $x$ , then

$(m^x)^{\frac{1}{3}}=m^{-12}$

We now use the following property of exponents to simplify the left hand side of the equation.

$(a^m)^n=a^{mn}$

This implies that;

$m^{x\times \frac{1}{3}}=m^{-12}$

$\Rightarrow m^{\frac{x}{3}}=m^{-12}$

Since the bases are the same, we equate the exponents to get;

${\frac{x}{3}=-12$

We now multiply both sides by 3 to get;

$\frac{x}{3}\times 3=-12\times 3$

$\Rightarrow x =-36$

Therefore the number that goes into the box is $-36$
