Complete question is;

Lucy works for a company that manufactures liquid dyes for fabric. She currently wants to mix up some 23%-concentrated teal dye. She has 16 gallons of 15%-concentrated teal dye, as well as plenty of 25%-concentrated teal dye. How many gallons of the 25%-concentrated teal dye will Lucy need to add to the 15%-concentrated teal dye to make a batch with a concentration of 23%?

Answer:

64 gallons

Explanation:

We are given;

Quantity of 15%-concentrated teal dye = 16 gallons

Let the number of gallons of 25%-concentrated teal dye needed to add to make the batch with a concentration of 23% be represented as x.

Thus;

(15% × 16) + (25%)x = 23%(16 + x)

Multiply each term by 100 to give;

(15 × 16) + 25x = 23(16 + x)

240 + 25x = 368 + 23x

Rearranging, we have;

25x - 23x = 368 - 240

2x = 128

x = 128/2

x = 64

Column arrays: Transpose a row array Construct a row array countValues with elements 1 to endValue, using the double colon opera
White raven [17]

Answer:

Matlab code with step by step explanation and output results are given below

Explanation:

We have to construct a Matlab function that creates a row vector "countValues" with elements 1 to endValue. That means it starts from 1 and ends at the value provided by the user (endValue).  

function countValues = CreateArray(endValue)

% Here we construct a row vector countValues from 1:endValue

     countValues = 1:endValue;

% then we transpose this row vector into column vector

     countValues = countValues';

 end

Output:

Calling this function with the endValue=11 returns following output

CreateArray(11)

ans =

    1

    2

    3

    4

    5

    6

    7

    8

    9

   10

   11

Hence the function works correctly. It creates a row vector then transposes it and makes it a column vector.

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

This shows that the technological designs are similar to the scientific investigation processes.

Explanation:

Scientists carry out scientific investigations and discoveries. They learn from their environment by investigating the natural world. The scientist investigates by problem identification, research the related information, designing and conceptualizing, investigating and analyzing the results and deriving out conclusions.

Similarly the engineers follow the same step and provide solutions to the problems of the society through their products and technological designs. The engineers first identify the need of the product, design and implement the design to provide solution and then evaluate the solution. These are the similar steps that an engineer follow in a technological design of a product or a solution.
