Answer:

D. 9.1

Step-by-step explanation:

You first multiply -0.3 *(7) which will give you -2.1. Lastly you add 11.2 to the -2.1 that will give you the answer 9.1

A chemist has a 40% alcohol solution and a 25% alcohol solution. How much of each should he mix together to get 50 liters of a 3

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

33 1/3 L of the 40% solution, 16 2/3 L of the 25% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up two equations...

Let x represent the number of Liters of the 40% solution

Let y represent the number of Liters of the 25% solution

We need 50 liters total, so

x + y = 50

and we need the 50 L to be 35% solution, so

0.4x = 0.25y = 0.35(50)

Solve the first equation for one variable...

x = 50 - y (subtract y from both sides in equation 1)

Now substitute that value into the second equation...

0.4(50 - y) + 0.25y = 17.5 (x becomes 50 - y, 0.35(50) = 17.5)

Now solve for y...

20 - 0.4y + 0.25y = 17.5

-0.15y = -2.5

y = 16.66666667

y = 16 2/3 L

So we need to plug that into the first equation to find 'x'

x + 16 2/3 = 50

x = 50 - 16 2/3

x = 33 1/3

A large truck has two fuel tanks, each with a capacity of 150 gallons. Tank 1 is half full, and Tank 2 is empty.

12345 [234]

Answer:

1) $G(t) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}t\\$

2) After 8 minutes delivering fuel the tanks will have 121 gallons of fuel

Step-by-step explanation:

1) For generating the equation we have to take into account that in the tanks there is a initial volume of fuel that corresponds to 75 gallons, as it is stated that tank one is half full. As the capacity for tank 1 is of 150 gallons, half of the tank equals to:

$\frac{150}{2} = 75 gallons$

Now we have to convert the rate of delivery that is expressed as a mixed number to an improper fraction so:

$5\frac{3}{4} = \frac{(5x4)+3}{4} = \frac{23}{4}$

Then the pumping rate is of 23/4 gallons per minute, to get how many gallons are in the tank we just need to multiply this rate by the time in minutes, and as there is an initial volume we have to add it, so we have the following equation:

$G(t) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}t\\$

2) To know how much fuel is in the tank after 8 minutes we have to replace this time in the previous equation so we have

$G(t) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}t\\G(8) = 75 + \frac{23}{4}(8)\\G(8) = 75 + 23(2)\\G(8) = 75 + 46\\G(8) = 121 gallons$
