Answer:
6 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number of ounces of the 15% alcohol solution needed to be mixed with the 4 ounces of 20% alcohol solution to obtain the 17% alcohol solution.
After converting the percentages to their decimal equivalents, set up the necessary equation as follows:
0.15x+0.20(4) = (x+4)(0.17) Simplify and solve for x.
0.15x+0.8 = 0.17x+0.68 Subtract 0.15x from both sides.
0.8 = 0.02x+0.68 Now subtract 0.68 from both sides.
0.12 = 0.02x Finally, divide both sides by 0.02
x = 6
You need to mix 6 ounces of 15% alcohol solution with 4 ounces of 20% alcohol solution to obtain 10 (x+4)ounces of 17% alcohol solution.
thanks for the points dude
Well, 10x4=40 because 10+10+10+10=40 and that means your answer must be 40 ones or you asked something else.
Answer:
w = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Reverse the equation placing w on the left side
8w - 3 = - 12u + 13 ( add 3 to both sides )
8w = - 12u + 16 ( divide both sides by 8 )
w =
Part a)
Answer: 5*sqrt(2pi)/pi
-----------------------
Work Shown:
r = sqrt(A/pi)
r = sqrt(50/pi)
r = sqrt(50)/sqrt(pi)
r = (sqrt(50)*sqrt(pi))/(sqrt(pi)*sqrt(pi))
r = sqrt(50pi)/pi
r = sqrt(25*2pi)/pi
r = sqrt(25)*sqrt(2pi)/pi
r = 5*sqrt(2pi)/pi
Note: the denominator is technically not able to be rationalized because of the pi there. There is no value we can multiply pi by so that we end up with a rational value. We could try 1/pi, but that will eventually lead back to having pi in the denominator. I think your teacher may have made a typo when s/he wrote "rationalize all denominators"
============================================================
Part b)
Answer: 3*sqrt(3pi)/pi
-----------------------
Work Shown:
r = sqrt(A/pi)
r = sqrt(27/pi)
r = sqrt(27)/sqrt(pi)
r = (sqrt(27)*sqrt(pi))/(sqrt(pi)*sqrt(pi))
r = sqrt(27pi)/pi
r = sqrt(9*3pi)/pi
r = sqrt(9)*sqrt(3pi)/pi
r = 3*sqrt(3pi)/pi
Note: the same issue comes up as before in part a)
============================================================
Part c)
Answer: sqrt(19pi)/pi
-----------------------
Work Shown:
r = sqrt(A/pi)
r = sqrt(19/pi)
r = sqrt(19)/sqrt(pi)
r = (sqrt(19)*sqrt(pi))/(sqrt(pi)*sqrt(pi))
r = sqrt(19pi)/pi
