Answer: choice A. 40 liters
====================================
Explanation:
x = number of liters of the 50% alcohol solution
If we have x liters of 50% alcohol, then we have 0.50*x liters of pure alcohol. This is added to 0.90*40 = 36 liters of pure alcohol (from the 90% solution).
So far we have 0.50*x + 36. This expression represents the total amount of pure alcohol. We want a 70% solution, so we want 70% of the total 40+x meaning 0.50*x + 36 is to be set equal to 0.70*(40+x) and we solve for x as shown below
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40+x)
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40)+0.70*(x)
0.50*x + 36 = 28+0.70*x
36 - 28 = 0.70*x - 0.50x
8 = 0.20x
0.20x = 8
x = 8/0.20
x = 40
So that is why the answer is choice A. 40 liters

Answer: the graph crosses the x-axis at x = -3
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
y = (x + 3)³
To find where the graph crosses the x-axis, let y = 0 and solve for x:
0 = (x + 3)³
0 = (x + 3) with a multiplicity of 3
-3 = x with a multiplicity of 3.
Since multiplicity is an ODD number, the graph CROSSES the x-axis at x = -3

<u>Graph:</u>
- Leading coefficient is POSITIVE so right side goes to +∞
- Degree of polynomial is ODD so left side goes to -∞
