A lab technician needs 60mL of 25% acid solution for a certain experiment , but he has only 10% solution and 40% solution. How many milliliters of the 10% and the 40% solutions should he mix to get what he needs?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10%: 30 mL40%: 30 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The needed concentration is exactly halfway between the available concentrations, hence they must be mixed equally.

He should mix 30 mL each of the 10% and 40% solutions.

_____

The first step in solving any problem is to look at the given information, and at what is being asked for. Here, the mix that is being asked for is exactly halfway between the given concentrations, so you know without any further contemplation that the mix will be 50%/50% of each.

__

If the mix were something else, there are several ways the problem can be solved. I like to use a diagram that puts the available concentrations on the left in a column with the highest on top, the needed concentration in the next column in the middle, and the differences of these numbers on the diagonals in the right column.

Example: if the needed mix is 15%, the diagram would look like ...

   40            5

          15

   10           25

The numbers on the right tell you the proportions required (5:25 = 1:5). For this example, you need 1 part 40% solution and 5 parts 10% solution to make a mix that is 15%. That's a total of 6 parts, so each "part" is 10 mL for 60 mL of solution.

We chose this example so every number in the diagram is different, so you could see how the instructions for use apply.

__

Another way to solve this is to let a variable represent the amount needed of the highest concentration. If we let that variable be x, for the given problem, we can write the equation for the amount of acid in the mix as ...

  40%(x) + 10%(60 -x) = 25%(60)

  0.30x = 9 . . . . . . . . subtract 6, simplify

  x = 9/0.30 = 30 . . . . . mL of 40% solution

PLEASE HELP!! ASAP NOWWWW Two races that a student runs every year are the 1492​-mile race in his hometown and the ​-meter race in his college town. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d) below.

Answers

Answer:

College town race is 31% of the home town race.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of hometown race = 3 miles

Length of college town race = 1492 meters

Since 1 meter = 0.0006214 miles

Therefore, 1492 = 0.93 miles

Percentage of college town race to the hometown race,

= [tex]\frac{\text{College town race}}{\text{Home town race}}\times 100[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{0.93}{3}\times 100[/tex]

= 31%

Therefore, the college town race is 31% of the home town race.

Required:
a. Is the variable of interest defined by the question "How many hours per week do you use our software?" quantitative or qualitative?
b. Is the variable of interest defined by the question "For how many years have you been using our software?" quantitative or qualitative?

Answers

Answer:

Quantitative

Quantitative

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following research questions to classify:

a. Is the variable of interest defined by the question "How many hours per week do you use our software?

This is a quantitative variable, because the question requires a numerical response such as 5. 10, 2 4 and so on upon which numerical or statistical calculations such as addition, subtraction, range, mean and so on can be performed.

B.) For how many years have you been using our software?

This is also a quantitative variable as the question expects a response of Numeric characteristic such as 2, 3 and so on depending on the number of years the respondent has been using the software

Solve for r:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

[tex]B=d\pi r^2[/tex]

And we want to solve for r.

So first, isolate the r variable. Divide both sides by dπ. So:

[tex]\frac{B}{d\pi}=\frac{d\pi r^2}{d\pi}[/tex]

The right side cancels:

[tex]\frac{B}{d\pi}=r^2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides:

[tex]r=\sqrt\frac{B}{d\pi}[/tex]

We can rearrange the terms:

[tex]r=\sqrt\frac{B}{\pi d}[/tex]

Our answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the slope and a point and we are asked to find the equation of the line, we can use the point-slope form.

The point-slope form is:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Let's let m be 2 and let (2,1) be x₁ and y₁. Thus:

[tex]y-1=2(x-2)[/tex]

Distribute the right:

[tex]y-1=2x-4[/tex]

Add 1 to both sides:

[tex]y=2x-3[/tex]

And that's our equation.

If there is a tug boat located one-fifth of the way from Ship A to Ship B, find the location of the tug boat relative to the port.

Answers

Answer:

1.10

Step-by-step explanation:

that's your answer

The location of the tug boat relative to the port will be 30.83 miles.

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is the branch of mathematics that set up a relationship between the sides and angles of right-angle triangles.

The distance of ship A from the port is x

X²= 18²+30²

X²= 324+900

X²=1224

X=34.9857 miles

Bearing from port:-

Tanθ= 18/30

θ = tan^-1 3/5

θ= 31°

N 31° E

The distance of ship B from the port is y.

Y²= 27²+10²

Y²= 729+100

Y²= 829

Y=28.7924 miles

Bearing from port:-

Tanθ = 2.2

θ = 69.7°

90-69.7= 20.3

N 20.3°W

The distance between the two ships is z.

Z²=34.9857²+28.7924²-2(24.9857)(28.7924)cos(31+69.7°)

Z²= 2053+267.1

Z²= 2320.1

Z=48.18 miles

One-fifth of 48.18

=9.63 miles

The distance of the boat is D.

D/sin 60 = 34.9857/sin 100.7

D=30.83 miles

Therefore, the location of the tug boat relative to the port will be 30.83 miles.

An emu that measures 22 inches in height is 14 inches less than 2 times the height of a stuffed toy canary. What is the height of the stuffed toy canary? Jesus thinks the height of the canary is 18 inches. Is this true or false?

Answers

Answer:  The height of the stuffed toy canary is 18 inches so Jesus is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent the first statement by the equation  22= 2x - 14    where x is the height of the stuffed toy canary  so solve for x

22 = 2x -14   Add 14 to both sides

+14          +14

36 = 2x       Divide both sides by 2

x = 18
