Answer: choice A. 40 liters
====================================
Explanation:
x = number of liters of the 50% alcohol solution
If we have x liters of 50% alcohol, then we have 0.50*x liters of pure alcohol. This is added to 0.90*40 = 36 liters of pure alcohol (from the 90% solution).
So far we have 0.50*x + 36. This expression represents the total amount of pure alcohol. We want a 70% solution, so we want 70% of the total 40+x meaning 0.50*x + 36 is to be set equal to 0.70*(40+x) and we solve for x as shown below
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40+x)
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40)+0.70*(x)
0.50*x + 36 = 28+0.70*x
36 - 28 = 0.70*x - 0.50x
8 = 0.20x
0.20x = 8
x = 8/0.20
x = 40
So that is why the answer is choice A. 40 liters
Answer:
The Tigers are in first place and Joe has a good taste in basketball teams. I'm not sure if you can conclude anything else from that.
Answer:
170°
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a be the distance from Los Angeles to Chicago = 1744 miles, b be the distance from Chicago to New York = 714 miles and c be the distance from New York to Los Angeles = 2451 miles.
A is the angle opposite to side a, B is the angle opposite to side b and C is the angle opposite to side c.
Therefore the angle at Chicago is C.
From cosine rule:
c² = a² + b² - 2ab × cos (C)
2ab × cos (C) = a² + b² - c²
cos (C) = (a² + b² - c²) / 2ab
Substituting:
cos (C) = (1744² + 714² - 2451²) / 2×1744×741
cos (C) = -0.986
C = cos⁻¹ (- 0.986) = 170°
