Answer:

  a = 20 . . . . liters

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, multiply the equation by 30+a:

  a = 0.4(30 +a)

  a = 12 + 0.4a . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  0.6a = 12 . . . . . . . . subtract 0.4a

  a = 12/0.6 = 20 . . . divide by the coefficient of a

20 L of alfalfa must be added

_____

<em>Check</em>

  20/(30+20) = 20/50 = 40/100 = 0.4 . . . . . . answer checks OK

It is a linear equation but i don't know how to set the equation up , need help​
ryzh [129]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of novels

y = number of dictionaries

x = 8y

88x + 208y = 13680

now, using the identity of the first equation in the second equation gives us

88(8y) + 208y = 13680

704y + 208y = 13680

912y = 13680

y = 13680/912 = 15

x = 8y = 8×15 = 120

so, there were 120 novels and 15 dictionaries sold.

Find the distance between (-3, -11) and (8, -42)
Marianna [84]

Answer:

32.8937 units

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we can imagine this as a right triangle with a length of 11 (THe change of the X's) and the height being 31 (Change of the Y's)

Then we use pythagorean therom to find the hypotenuse (the length)

11^2 + 31^2 = c^2

121+961 = C^2

1082 = c^2

32.8937units

B) If A x B = {(-1, 1), (-1, 2), (2, 1), (2, 2), (3, 1), (3, 2)}. Find A x A and B x B.​
Oduvanchick [21]

hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

A = {-1, 2, 3}

B = {1,2}

AxA = {(-1,-1) (-1,2) (-1,3) (2,-1) (2,2) (2,3) (3,-1) (3,2) (3,3)}

BxB = {(1,1) (1,2) (2,1) (2,2)}

A large stockpile of used pumps contains 20% that are currently unusable and need to be repaired. A repairman is sent to the sto
Scrat [10]

Answer:

Expected value = 190

Variance = 4000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the number of the trials until the third success of the bad pump.

This implies that X is a negative binomial distribution having θ = 20% = 0.2.

Now, if for example it will take X trials to use up the three pumps, then the total time is 10 min/trials + extra 10 minutes for the 3 bad pumps

This means the total time is written as;

T = 10X + (10 + 10 + 20)

T = 10X + 40

Mean which is also expected value of X is;

μ_x = 3/0.2 = 15

Variance of X is; σ²_x = 40

Thus;

Mean of T will be;

μ_T = 10μ_x + 40

μ_T = 10(15) + 40

μ_T = 190

Also, variance of T will be;

σ²_T = 10²•σ²_x

σ²_T = 100 × 40

σ²_T = 4000
