Answer:
Amount of vinegar. 100% : 20 milliliters
Amount of Italian dressing: 140 milliliters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call A the amount of vinegar. 100%
Let's call B the amount of Italian dressing . 12% vinegar
The resulting mixture should have 23% vinegar, and 160 milliliters.
Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:
Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:
Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -1 and add it to the second equation:
+
--------------------------------------
We substitute the value of B into one of the two equations and solve for A.
Answer:
cos(45°) = (√2)/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The cosine of 45° is the x-coordinate of the point on the unit circle where the line y=x intersects it. That is, it is the positive solution to the equation ...
x^2 +x^2 = 1
x^2 = 1/2 = 2/4 . . . . . collect terms, divide by 2, express the fraction with a square denominator
x = √(2/4) . . . . . . take the square root
x = (√2)/2 . . . . . simplify
The cosine of 45° is (√2)/2.
