Answer:

30 gallons of first brand & 20 gallons of second brand

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount in gallons of 65% antifreeze needed be x.

Let the amount in gallons of 90% antifreeze needed be y.

You need to make a total of 50 gallons, so that gives us our first equation:

x + y = 50

Now we deal with the amount of pure antifreeze in each amount of antifreeze and in the result.

x gallons of 65% antifreeze contain 0.65x gallons of pure antifreeze.

y gallons of 90% antifreeze contain 0.9x gallons of pure antifreeze.

The result is 50 gallons of 75% pure antifreeze which contains 0.75 * 50 gallons of pure antifreeze. 0.75 * 50 = 37.5

Now we add the two amounts of pure antifreeze and set equal to the result.

0.65x + 0.9y = 37.5

This is the second equation. We have a system of two equations in two unknowns.

x + y = 50       Equation 1

0.65x + 0.9y = 37.5        Equation 2

Multiply the first equation by -0.65

-0.65x - 0.65y = -32.5

0.65x + 0.9y = 37.5    This is Equation 2.

Add the two equations above to eliminate x.

0.25y = 5

y = 20

Substitute 20 for y in the original equation and solve for x.

x + y = 50

x + 20 = 50

x = 30

Answer: 30 gallons of first brand & 20 gallons of second brand

Statistics please help I'm not good worth 50 points
mina [271]

(a) I can't help you with using your calculator for this part, but if you have some familiarity with your device you can check your answer with mine.

The mean is simply the sum of all the house costs divided by the number of houses:

(75k + 75k + 150k + 155k + 165k + 203k + 750k + 755k)/8 = 291k

So the population mean is $291,000.

The population standard deviation is the square root of the population variance. To get the variance, you take the sum of all the squared differences between the cost and the mean cost, then divide that sum by the number of houses. That is,

[(75k - 291k)² + (75k - 291k)² + … + (755k - 291k)²]/8 = 581,286k

Note that the variances is measured in square dollars. Then the standard deviation is

√(581,286k) ≈ $762,421.1

(b) The median is just the price in the middle. There were 8 houses sold, so there are 2 "middle" prices. The median is the average of these:

(155k + 165k)/2 = 160k = $160,000

(c) Yes, the mode is the data that shows up most frequently. This happens at the lower end, with $75,000 appearing twice.
