Solve mixture problems. George wishes to increase the percent of acid in 50m / of a 15% acid solution in water to 25% acid, how much pure acid must you add?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = amount of pure acid to be added = 6.67ml

Step-by-step explanation:

George wishes to increase the percent of acid in 50ml of a 15% acid solution in water to 25% acid, how much pure acid must you add?

let

x = amount of pure acid to be added

15% of 50 + x = 25% of 50 + x

(0.15 * 50) + x = 0.25(50 + x)

7.5 + x = 12.5 + 0.25x

Collect like terms

x - 0.25x = 12.5 - 7.5

0.75x = 5

x = 5/0.75

x = 6.6666666666666

Approximately,

x = 6.67

x = amount of pure acid to be added = 6.67ml

Answer:

3.1 A) 49; 64; and 81

B) 343; 512; and 729

C) 28; 36; and 45

3.2 A) 1²; 2²; 3²...

B) 1³; 2³; 3³...

C) 1; 1+2; 1+2+3; ...

3.3 A) aₙ = n²

B) aₙ = n³

C) aₙ = n·(n + 1)/2

3.4 A) 10,000

B) 1,000,000

C) 5,050

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequences are;

A 1; 4; 9; 16; 25; 36...

B 1; 8; 27; 64; 125; 216...

C 1; 3; 6; 10; 15; 21;...

3.1 A) The terms, aₙ, of sequence 'A' are given as follows;

aₙ = n², where, n = 1, 2, 3,...

The next three terms of sequence 'A' are therefore;

a₇ = 7³ = 49, a₈ = 8² = 64, and a₉ = 9² = 81

The next three terms of sequence 'A' are ; 49; 64; and 81

B) The terms, aₙ, of sequence 'B' are given as follows;

aₙ = n³, where, n = 1, 2, 3,...

The next three terms of sequence 'B' are therefore;

a₇ = 7³ = 343, a₈ = 8³ = 512, and a₉ = 9³ = 729

The next three terms of sequence 'B' are; 343; 512; and 729

C) The terms, aₙ, of sequence 'C' are given as follows;

aₙ = n·(n + 1)/2, where, n = 1, 2, 3,...

The next three terms of sequence 'A' are therefore;

a₇ = 7×(7 + 1)/2 = 28, a₈ = 8×(8 + 1)/2 = 36, and a₉ = 36 + 9×(9 + 1)/2 = 45

The next three terms of sequence 'A' are ; 28; 36; and 45

B) The pattern of the numbers in sequence 'B', consists of raising to the power of 3 each number in the sequence of natural numbers

C) The pattern is the triangular number sequence and consists of finding half the number dots that are present in a n by (n + 1) rectangle, which is given by finding the sum of the natural numbers up to the given term in the sequence

3.3 A) The formula for the general term of sequence, A, is aₙ = n²

B) The formula for the general term of sequence, B, is aₙ = n³

C) The formula for the general term of sequence, C, is aₙ = n·(n + 1)/2

3.4 A) The 100th term of sequence 'A', a₁₀₀ = 100² = 10,000

B) The 100th term of sequence 'B', a₁₀₀ = 100³ = 1,000,000

C) The 100th term of sequence 'C', a₁₀₀ = 100 × (100 + 1)/2 = 5,050.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam, Raj and Jade have 12 sweets each

(one person has 12 sweets)

Sam has 12 sweets

one quarter of Sam sweet is blue

1/4 = one quarter

1/4 * 12 = 3

Sam has 3 blue sweets.

Answer:

sam has 3 blue sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{4} of 12 = 3[/tex]

if sam has 12 sweets and one quarter are blue then we need to work out one quarter of the twelve sweets. you need to do [tex]\frac{1}{4} of 12[/tex] which is 3 and [tex]\frac{1}{4} of 12[/tex]  is the same as [tex]\frac{1}{4} times 12[/tex]

?????????????????? find the value of x​

Answers

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

We can infer that the angles are equivalent based on the opposite angle theorem and we can set the equations equal to one another:

(8x-22)=(5x+29)

from here, we can subtract 5x from each side leaving us with:

3x-22=29

Now add 22 to both sides:

3x=51

Now divide both sides by 3, leaving us with the value of x:

x=17

An isosceles triangle has an angle that measures 40°. Which other angles could be in that isosceles triangle? Choose all that apply. 70, 100,80,40

Answers

Given:

An isosceles triangle has an angle that measures 40°.

To find:

The other possible angles of the triangle.

Solution:

Case 1: 40° is the measure of base angle of isosceles triangle.

Then, the other base angle is 40°.

Let x be the measure of third angle.

The sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. So,

[tex]x+40^\circ+40^\circ=180^\circ[/tex]

[tex]x=180^\circ-40^\circ-40^\circ[/tex]

[tex]x=100^\circ[/tex]

So, the possible angles are 40° and 100°.

Case 2: 40° is the measure of vertical angle of isosceles triangle.

Let y be the measure of base angles, then

[tex]y+y+40^\circ=180^\circ[/tex]

[tex]2y=180^\circ -40^\circ[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{140^\circ}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y=70^\circ [/tex]

So, the possible angles are 40° and 70°.

Therefore, the correct options are A, B and D.

Step-by-step explanation:

joe takes x hours

so in 1 hr he does 1/x of the garden

janet takes 2x hours

so in 1 hr she does 1/(2x) of the garden

In one hour together they do 1/2 of the garden

1/x + 1/(2x) = 1/2

2/(2x) + 1/(2x) = 1/2

3/(2x) = 1/2

Cross multiply

6 = 2x

x = 3

Answer:

New width = 12 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original height = 2 in.

Original width = 3 in.

New height = 8 in.

New width = x = ?

The shape of the original painting and the shape of the new painting are similar, therefore, the ratio of their corresponding linear measurement will be equal.

Thus:

New height/original height = new width/original width

8/2 = x/3

Cross multiply

2x = 3*8

2x = 24

2x/2 = 24/2

x = 12

New width = 12 in.

What is the radius of polygon JKLMN ?

Answers

Answer:

Radius of the circle is 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

JKLMN is a regular polygon inscribed in a circle.

Since, its a regular polygon,

JN = NM = 5.88 units

"Perpendicular drawn from the center of the circle to any chord is the bisector of the chord"

Therefore, PQ will be the perpendicular bisector of chord NM.

QM = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(NM)[/tex]

QM = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(5.88)[/tex]

QM = 2.94 units

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔPQM,

PM² = PQ² + QM²

PM² = (4.05)² + (2.94)²

PM = [tex]\sqrt{16.4025+8.6436}[/tex]

PM = [tex]\sqrt{25.0461}[/tex]

PM = 5 units

Therefore, radius of the circle is 5 units.

The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity.[2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice.[3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold.[4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day.Select a possible theme of the myth.
