How many mL of 75% alcohol should be mixed with 10% of 1000 cc alcohol to prepare 30% of 500 mL alcohol solution? a. 346.16 mL b. 234.43 mL c. 153.84 mL d. 121.12 mL e.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 153.84 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say x is the volume of 75% solution and y is the volume of 10% solution.

Sum of the volumes:

x + y = 500

Sum of the alcohol amounts:

0.75x + 0.10y = 0.30(500)

0.75x + 0.10y = 150

Solve the system of equations using either substitution or elimination.  I'll use substitution.

y = 500 - x

0.75x + 0.10 (500 - x) = 150

0.75x + 50 - 0.10x = 150

0.65x = 100

x = 153.84

You need 153.84 mL of 75% solution.

Answer 2

"153.84 mL" of 75% alcohol should be added. A further explanation is provided below.

Let,

75% alcohol used be "x".10% alcohol used be "y".

then,

→ [tex]x+y = 500[/tex]

         [tex]y = (500-x)[/tex]

now,

→ [tex]75(x)+10(500-x) = 500\times 30[/tex]

                [tex]65x+5000=15000[/tex]

                           [tex]65x=15000-5000[/tex]

                           [tex]65x=10000[/tex]

                               [tex]x = \frac{10000}{65}[/tex]

                                  [tex]= \frac{2000}{13}[/tex]

                                  [tex]= 153.84 \ mL[/tex]

Thus the above response i.e., "option c" is correct.

The distribution of scores in a exam has a normal distribution with a mean of 82 and a standard deviation of 13. What is the probability that a randomly selected score was less than 80? Enter your answer using decimal notation (and not percentages), and round your result to 2 significant places after the decimal (for example the probability of 0.1877 should be entered as 0.19)

Answers

Answer: 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean : [tex]\mu = 82[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma = 13[/tex]

The formula to calculate z is given by :-

[tex]z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For x= 80

[tex]z=\dfrac{80-82}{13}=−0.15384615384\approx-1.5[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]y=x^2+2x-8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When you graph those points on a piece of graph paper it appears that the points are in the form of a positive x^2 parabola, which has the standard form

[tex]y=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

We just need to solve for a, b, and c.  Easy.  We have 3 points from the table.  We will use all three of them to find the values of a, b, and c.

Use the points (0, -8), (2, 0), and (4, 16).  You can use any points, but I chose the one with an x value of 0 for a good reason, and chose the other 2 because I don't like too many negatives!

Use the first point in those above to solve for c:

[tex]-8=a(0)^2+b(0)+c[/tex]

From this you solve for c:  c = -8

Now use the next point along with the value of c to find another equation:

[tex]0=a(2)^2+b(2)-8[/tex] and

[tex]0=4a+2b-8[/tex] so

8 = 4a + 2b

That equation will be used again in a minute.

Use the last point to solve for yet another equation (stay with me...we are almost there!):

[tex]16=a(4)^2+b(4)-8[/tex] and

24 = 16a + 4b

Now we will use the method of elimination to solve for b:

8  =  4a  +  2b

24 = 16a + 4b

Multiply the first equation by -4 to eliminate the a terms:

-32 = -16a - 8b

24 = 16a + 4b

leaves you with

-4b = -8 and b = 2.  Now plug that back in to solve for a:

If 8 = 4a + 2b, then 8 = 4a + 2(2) and 8 = 4a + 4

4a = 4 and a = 1

Again, your equation is

[tex]y=x^2+2x-8[/tex]

In the figure, AB∥CD. Find x and y.

Answers

Answer:

y=131°

x=53°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ ABD and ∠ BDC are supplementary.

The sum of the supplementary angles =180 °

thus y-4+x=180...........i

x and 37° are complementary, that  is, they add up to 90°

Thus, x=90-37=53°

Using this value in equation 1 we obtain:

y-4°+53° =180°

y= 180°-53°+4°

y=131°

Answer:

x  = 53°

y = 131°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we can see a right angled triangle.

AB∥CD

To find the value of x and y

Consider the large triangle, by using angle sum property we can write,

90 + 37 + x = 180

127 + x = 180

x = 180 - 127

x  = 53°

Since AB∥CD and BD is a traversal on these parallel lines.

Therefore <ABD and < CDB are supplementary

we have x  = 53°,

x + (y - 4) = 180

53 + y - 4 = 180

y = 180 - 49 = 131°

y = 131°

Once each point is plotted, you get the rectangle attached.

You can observe in the figure that the base of the rectangle is its longer side.

 Since the length of the base of the rectangle goes from [tex]x=-1[/tex] to [tex]x=3[/tex], you can say that the lenght of the base is the difference between 3 and -1.

Atool set has been discounted down to a price of R412.00. If the discount given was 3) 21%, how much was the toolset before the discount was applied?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of toolset before the discount was applied is:

                    Rs.  521.5189

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

A tool set has been discounted down to a price of Rs 412.00.

The percent discount that is provided to us is: 21%

Let the actual price of toolset be: Rs. x

This means that:

[tex]x-21\%\ of x=412\\\\i.e.\\\\x-0.21x=412\\\\i.e.\\\\(1-0.21)x=412\\\\i.e.\\\\0.79x=412\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{412}{0.79}\\\\x=521.5189[/tex]

   Hence, the actual price of toolset i.e. cost before discount is:

                        Rs.   521.5189

Final answer:

To find the original price of the toolset before the discount was applied, we can set up an equation and solve for the original price. The original price of the toolset was R520.89.

Explanation:

To find the original price of the toolbox, we need to first calculate the amount of the discount. The discount given is 21%. Let's say the original price of the toolbox is P. We can calculate the amount of the discount by multiplying the original price by the discount percentage:

Discount = P * 21% = P * 0.21

The discounted price is given as R412.00. So we can set up the equation:

Original price - Discount = Discounted price

P - P * 0.21 = R412.00

We can now solve for P:

P(1 - 0.21) = R412.00

0.79P = R412.00

P = R412.00 / 0.79

P = R520.89

Therefore, the original price of the toolset before the discount was applied was R520.89.

What is Probability?

Probability refers to potential. A random event's occurrence is the subject of this area of mathematics.

The range of the value is 0 to 1. Mathematics has incorporated probability to forecast the likelihood of various events.

The degree to which something is likely to happen is basically what probability means.

let X be the probability that Peter would receive offer from the accounting firm.

and, Y be the probability that Peter would receive offer from the consulting firm.

We have P(X) = 30% and P(Y) = 20%.

Now we want to find  P(X∪Y)  = ?

We know that

P(A∩B) = P(A) × P(B

             = 30% x 20%

             = 0.30 x 0.20

Final answer:

To find the probability that both an accounting firm and a consulting firm offer Peter a job, we multiply the individual probabilities of him receiving an offer from each firm. This results in a 6% chance that Peter will receive job offers from both firms.

Explanation:

The question asks about calculating the probability that Peter receives job offers from both an accounting firm and a consulting firm. Since the events are independent, the probability that both events occur is the product of their individual probabilities.

To compute the probability that both firms offer him a job, we multiply the probability of receiving an offer from the accounting firm (30%) by the probability of receiving an offer from the consulting firm (20%):

Probability(Both offers) = Probability(Accounting offer)  times Probability(Consulting offer)

Probability(Both offers) = 0.30  times 0.20

Probability(Both offers) = 0.06 or 6%

Therefore, the probability that both firms offer Peter a job is 6%.

Suppose that events E and F are​ independent, ​P(E)equals=0.40.4​, and ​P(F)equals=0.90.9. What is the Upper P left parenthesis Upper E and Upper F right parenthesisP(E and F)​?

Answers

Answer:

The probability of E and F is 0.367236 ≅ 0.367

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the meaning independent probability  

- Two events are independent if the result of the second event is not

  affected by the result of the first event

- If A and B are independent events, the probability of both events  

 is the product of the probabilities of the both events

- P (A and B) = P(A) · P(B)

* Lets solve the question  

- There are two events E and F

- E and F are independent

- P(E) = 0.404

- P(F) = 0.909

∵ Events E and F are independent

- To find P(E and F) find the product of P(E) and P(F)

∴ P (E and F) = P(E) · P(F)

∵ P(E) = 0.404

∵ P(F) = 0.909

∴ P(E and F) = (0.404) · (0.909) = 0.367236 ≅ 0.367

* The probability of E and F is 0.367236 ≅ 0.367

the probability that both event E and event F occur is 0.36.

When dealing with independent events, the probability of both events E and F occurring, denoted as P(E and F), is determined by multiplying the probability of event E by the probability of event F. In this case, since P(E)=0.4 and P(F)=0.9 and the events are independent, you calculate P(E and F) as follows:

P(E and F) = P(E)  × P(F) = 0.4 × 0.9 = 0.36.

Therefore, the probability that both event E and event F occur is 0.36.

Find the maximum and minimum values of the function below on the horizontal span from 1 to 5. Be sure to include endpoint maxima or minima. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) x^2 + 85/x

Answers

Answer:

Max = 86; min = 36.54

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]f(x) = x^{2} + \dfrac{85}{x}[/tex]

Step 1. Find the critical points.

(a) Take the derivative of the function.

[tex]f'(x) = 2x - \dfrac{85}{x^{2}}[/tex]

Set it to zero and solve.

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}2x - \dfrac{85}{x^{2}} & = & 0\\\\2x^{3} - 85 & = & 0\\2x^{3} & = & 85\\\\x^{3} & = &\dfrac{85}{2}\\\\x & = & \sqrt [3]{\dfrac{85}{2}}\\\\& \approx & 3.490\\\end{array}\[/tex]

(b) Calculate ƒ(x) at the critical point.  

[tex]f(3.490) = 3.490^{2} + \dfrac{85}{3.490} = 12.18 + 24.36 = 36.54[/tex]

Step 2. Calculate ƒ(x) at the endpoints of the interval

[tex]f(1) = 1^{2} + \dfrac{85}{1} = 1 + 85 = 86\\\\f(5) = 5^{2} + \dfrac{85}{5} = 25 + 17 = 42[/tex]

Step 3.Identify the maxima and minima.

ƒ(x) achieves its absolute maximum of 86 at x = 1 and its absolute minimum of 36.54 at x = 3.490

The figure below shows the graph of ƒ(x) from x = 1 to x = 5.

Final answer:

The maximum and minimum values of the mathematical function f(x) = x^2 + 85/x on the interval [1, 5] occur at the endpoints with the maximum being 86 at x=1 and minimum being 37 at x=5.

Explanation:

To find the maximum and minimum values of the function f(x) = x2 + 85/x over the interval [1, 5], we first find the critical points in that interval. The critical points occur where the derivative of the function is zero or undefined. The derivative of the function f(x) is 2x - 85/x2 and it is undefined at x = 0 and becomes 0 at x = sqrt (42.5).

Since x = 0 is not in our interval, we disregard it. The value x = sqrt (42.5) is also outside our interval [1, 5], so we disregard this too.

Therefore, the maximum and minimum values of the function on the interval [1, 5] occur at the endpoints. We substitute these endpoint values into the function:

f(1) = 12 + 85/1 = 86 f(5) = 52 + 85/5 = 37

Therefore, the maximum value is 86 and the minimum value is 37, at x equals 1 and 5, respectively.

Which of the following is NOT a property of the sampling distribution of the sample​ mean? Choose the correct answer below. A. The sample means target the value of the population mean. B. The expected value of the sample mean is equal to the population mean. C. The distribution of the sample mean tends to be skewed to the right or left. D. The mean of the sample means is the population mean.

Answers

Answer:

B. The expected value of the sample mean is equal to the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of the sample mean is equal to the population mean  is NOT a property of the sampling distribution of the sample.

This is about understanding properties of sampling distribution of sample mean.

Option A is not a Property of Sampling distribution of Sample mean.

Option A; The sample mean does not target the population mean because it is just an independent mean gotten from a sample of the population. This statement is not true.

Option B; This statement is true because when we carry out sampling distribution of sample mean, the mean of all sample means is called expected value and this is equal to the population mean.

Option C; This statement is true because there are two major skewness in distribution either to the left which is negative or the right which is positive.

Option D; This statement is true for the same reason given in Option B above.

Assume that the wavelengths of photosynthetically active radiations (PAR) are uniformly distributed at integer nanometers in the red spectrum from 625 to 655 nm. What is the mean and variance of the wavelength distribution for this radiation

Answers

Answer:  The mean and variance of the wavelength distribution for this radiation are 642.5 nm and 75 nm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean and variance of a continuous uniform distribution function with parameters m and n is given by :-

[tex]\text{Mean=}\dfrac{m+n}{2}\\\\\text{Variance}=\dfrac{(n-m)^2}{12}[/tex]

Given : [tex]m=625\ \ \ n=655[/tex]

[tex]\text{Then, Mean=}\dfrac{625+655}{2}=642.5\\\\\text{Variance}=\dfrac{(655-625)^2}{12}=75[/tex]

Hence, the mean and variance of the wavelength distribution for this radiation are 642.5 nm and 75 nm.

A population of butterflies grows in such a way that each generation is simply 1.5 times the previous generation. There were 350 butterflies in the first generation, how many will there be by the 19th generation?

Answer the question with all work shown. Thanks

Answers

Answer:

378.5 or just 378

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear model with x representing the number of generations that's gone by, y is the number of butterflies after x number of generations has gone by, and the 350 represents the number of butterflies initially (before any time has gone by.  When x = 0, y = 350 so that's the y-intercept of our equation.)

The form for a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the rate of change and b is the y-intercept, the initial amount when x = 0.

Our rate of change is 1.5 and the initial amount of butterflies is 350, so filling in the equation we get a model of y = 1.5x + 350.

If we want y when x = 19, plug 19 in for x and solve for y:

y = 1.5(19) + 350

y = 378.5

Since we can't have .5 of a butterfly we will round down to 378

f. A fair coin is thrown in the air four times. If the coin lands with the head up on the first three tosses, what is the probability that the coin will land with the head up on the fourth toss? a. 0 b. 1/16 c. 1/8 d. 1/2

Answers

Answer:

D. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Coin tosses are independent.  Past results don't affect future probabilities.  So the probability of getting heads on the fourth toss is still 1/2.

Answer:

D. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Flipping coin is an INDEPENDENT event, meaning that if you flip a coin before, it is NOT going to affect the outcome of the next coin flipping

Since a coin has 2 sides, so the probability is 1/2

Is a product of two positive decimals, each less than 1, always less than each of the original decimals?

Answers

Answer with explanation:

Let me answer this question by taking two decimals less than 1.

A= 0.50

B= 0.25

→A × B

= 0.50 × 0.25

=0.125

It is less than both A and B.

→→A=0.99

B= 0.1

→C=A × B

= 0.99 × 0.1

=0.099

It is less than both A and B.

So, We can say with surety, that if take two decimals ,both less than 1, the product of these two decimals will be  less than each of the original decimals.

General Rule

→A =0. p ,

→ B=0. 0 q,

Product of , A × B, gives a number in which  there will be three digits after decimal which will be always less than both A and B as in A, there is one digit after decimal, and in B there are two digits after decimal.
