Answer:
<h3>X = 3/5 </h3>
3/5x + 3 = 6
3/5x = 6 - 5
3/5x = 1
<h3><u>Multiplying </u><u>both </u><u>the </u><u>sides </u><u>with </u><u>5x </u></h3>
3/5x (5x) = 1* 5x
3 = 5x
3/5 = X
Answer:
2.9802322e+17
Step-by-step explanation:
To check for continuity at the edges of each piece, you need to consider the limit as
approaches the edges. For example,

has two pieces,
and
, both of which are continuous by themselves on the provided intervals. In order for
to be continuous everywhere, we need to have

By definition of
, we have
, and the limits are


The limits match, so
is continuous.
For the others: Each of the individual pieces of
are continuous functions on their domains, so you just need to check the value of each piece at the edge of each subinterval.
X = amount of the 18% solution
y = amount of the 40% solution
we know the 18% solution has only 18% of alcohol, the rest is maybe water or something, now, how many liters is 18%? well, 18% of anything is just (18/100) * anything, so, 18% of x is just (18/100) *x or 0.18x, and that's how many liters are there.
likewise, how many liters are there in the 40% solution? well, (40/100) * y, or 0.4y, that many.
we know the mixture has to yield 10 liters at 20% alcohol, how many liters of only alcohol is that? well, (20/100) * 10, or 2 liters.


how much of the 40% solution? well y = 10 - x
