The numbers DO differ by 10 if they are
- 1 and 11
- 2 and 12
- 3 and 13
- 4 and 14
- 5 and 15
Each outcome technically has two ways of occurring, but since we're taking two marbles at a time, that would be the same as saying, for instance, that drawing 1 and 11 is the same as drawing 11 and 1. We only count such an event once.
So the answer is (a) 5.
Answer:
Ummmm no thanks. I am not going there.
Step-by-step explanation:
Madison created two functions.For Function A, the value of y is two less than four times the value of x.
The table below represents Function B.
-3,-9
-1,5
1,-1
3,3
In comparing the rates of change, which statement about Function A and Function B is true?
A.
Function A and Function B have the same rate of change.
B.
Function A has a greater rate of change than Function B has.
C.
Function A and Function B both have negative rates of change.
D.
Function A has a negative rate of change and Function B has a positive rate of change.
C is correct
Suppose you add <em>x</em> oz of 10% alcohol to <em>y</em> oz of pure alcohol. Then the mixture has a total volume of <em>x</em> + <em>y</em> oz, and we want to end up with 16 oz so that
<em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 16
For each oz of the solution 10% used, 0.1 oz of alcohol is contributed, and each oz of pure alcohol contributes 1 oz of alcohol. The mixture is supposed to have a concentration of 14%, which comes out to 0.14*16 = 2.24 oz of alcohol. Then
0.1<em> x</em> + 1 <em>y</em> = 2.24
Solve for <em>y</em> in both equations:
<em>y</em> = 16 - <em>x</em>
<em>y</em> = 2.24 - 0.1 <em>x</em>
Set them equal to one another and solve for <em>x</em>, then for <em>y</em>.
16 - <em>x</em> = 2.24 - 0.1 <em>x</em>
13.76 = 0.9 <em>x</em>
<em>x</em> = 13.76/0.9 ≈ 15.29
<em>y</em> = 16 - 15.29 ≈ 0.71
So you need about 15.29 oz of 10% alcohol and 0.71 oz of pure alcohol to get the desired mixture.
