Answer:

solution 1= 40ml

solution 2= 160ml

Step-by-step explanation:

%alcohol= amount of alcohol/total solutionx100

0.52x200=104ml of alcohol present

0.2x L=0.2Lml of alcohol in solution one

0.6 x M=0.6Mml of alcohol in solution two

1st equation

0.2L+0.6M=104ml alcohol

times 10 to get whole

2L+6M=1040ml

2nd

same for this equation

10L+10M=2000ml

10L+10M=2000

2L+6M=1040

elimination method

=20L+20M=4000

=20L+60M=10400

-40M=-6400

M=160ml

2L+6 (160)=1040

2L=1040-960

2L=80

L=40ml

In a rectangular coordinate plane what is the distance between points (-3,0) and (3,8)

zheka24 [161]

To calculate the distance between two points, we can use a formula that is a variation Pythagorean Theorem. Look:

$\mathsf{d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}}$

"d" represents the distance and coordinates are expressed as follows: (x, y)

Let's go to the calculations.

$\mathsf{d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(3-(-3))^2+(8-0)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(3+3)^2+(8)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(6)^2+64}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{36+64}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{100}}\\\\ \underline{\mathsf{d=10}}$

The answer is 10 uc.
