How many liter of 15% weed killer mixture must be added to 5 liters of 10% weedkiller mixture to make 12% weed killer mixture?

Answer: 3 1/3 liter

Brainliest? <3

let x equal the number of liters of 15% weedkiller.

your equation is .15 * x + .10 * 5 = .12 * (x + 5)

simplify to get .15 * x + .10 * 5 = .12 * x + .12 * 5

simplify further to get .15 * x + .5 = .12 * x + .6

subtract .12 * x from both sides and subtract .5 from both sides and simplify to get .03 * x = .1

divide both sides by .03 to get x = .1 / .03 = 3.333333333 rounded to 9 decimal digits.

you would need 3.333333333 liters of 15% solution to be added to 5 liters of 10% solution to get 8.333333333 liters of 12% solution.

.15 * 3.333333333 = .5

.10 * 5 = .5

.5 + .5 = 1

5 + 3.333333333 = 8.333333333

1 divided by 8.333333333 = .12 which is equal to 12%.

PLEASE HELP. WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answer:

x-intercepts = 1,2, and 4, y-intercept = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 - 7x^2 - 14x - 8 in factored form is equal to (x-1)(x-2)(x-4).

Solving for x-intercepts:

  • We are actually able to solve for all x-intercepts without the given factor. But since we are given one of the factors, our job becomes much easier.
  • Using synthetic division, or long division, we factor out the x-intercept 4. Which leaves us with the polynomial x^2 - 3x + 2.
  • From here we can separate the polynomial into two binomials.
  • x^2 - 3x + 2 = (x-1)(x-2). Giving us all 3 x-intercepts.
  • Using Descartes' rules we can identify before even starting the problem how many real x-intercepts there are (Not needed for this problem).

Solving for y-intercept:

  • The y-intercept is always the coefficient that does not have any assigned x-variables.
  • The coefficient is -8, thus the y-intercept.
  • If unsure of the y-intercept, you can always plug in x = 0. Solving for the y-intercept will give you the value of f(0).
  • If there is no coefficient, the y-intercept is equal to zero.

Given g(x) = -x – 4, find g(-5).
riadik2000 [5.3K]

The value of g(-5) from the given. function; g(x) = -x – 4 is; g(-5) = 1

<h3>Evaluation of functions</h3>

The given function is;

  • g(x) = -x – 4

Hence, the value of g(-5) can be obtained by substituting -5 for x in the function as follows;

  • g(-5) = -(-5) -4

  • g(-5) = 5 -4

  • g(-5) = 1.
