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

I dont understand how to simplify an expression with exponents

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

3^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying an expression with expression with exponents:

If they are dividing, we keep the base and subtract the exponents. For example:

$\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}$

In this question:

$\frac{3^2}{3^{-2}}=3^{2-(-2)}=3^{2+2}=3^4$

Solve the equation for all values of x.<br> (8x+9)(49x^2-100)=0

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

$x = \frac{-9}{8} , \frac{-10}{7} , \frac{10}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+9=0

8x=-9

$x = \frac{-9}{8}$

$49x^{2}-100 = 0$

$(7x)^{2} -10^{2} =0$ ,

$(7x+10)(7x-10)=0$

$7x+10=0, 7x-10=0$

$7x=-10, 7x=10$

$x=-\frac{-10}{7}$ , $x = \frac{10}{7}$

Help me please! ASAP

Colt1911 [192]

Answer: For number 1 tell Andre no.

Step-by-step explanation: This is because he wants to make a scaled copy of Jada's drawing but by turning 4 into 8 by adding, it will create consistences to the point the best way to scale would be to multiply. So, Tell Andre that if he wants 4 to be 8, he should multiply instead of adding. Very epic!
