A chemist has three different acid solutions. The first acid solution contains
25%
acid, the second contains
40%
and the third contains
60%
. He wants to use all three solutions to obtain a mixture of
60
liters containing
45%
acid, using
3
times as much of the
60%
solution as the
40%
solution. How many liters of each solution should be used?

Answers

Answer 1
Let t, f, and s be the amount of 25%, 40%, and 60% solutions used.

We are told s=3f.  The general equation is:

100(0.25t+0.4f+0.6s)/(t+s+f)=45, and using s=3f  we have:

(0.25t+0.4f+1.8f)/(t+4f)=0.45

(0.25t+2.2f)/(t+4f)=0.45

0.25t+2.2f=0.45t+1.8f  

0.25t+0.4f=0.45t

0.4f=0.2t

t=2f, remembering that s=3f, will allow us to solve for f

t+s+f=60, using t and s from above

2f+3f+f=60

6f=60

f=10 L then

s=3f=30 L  and t=2f=20L

So 20L of 25%, 10L of 40%, and 30L of 60% acid solutions need to be mixed to make 60L of 45% acid solution.

What is the length of a diagonal of a square with a side length of 6?

By the Pythagorean Theorem:

d^2=s^2+s^2

d^2=2(6^2)

d^2=2(36)

3.   Solve z2 – 15z + 56 = 0 using the zero product property.      A. z = 8, 7 B. z = –5, –2 C. z = 8, –4 D. z = –4, 7

Answers

We are tasked to solve for the values of z using and applying the zero product property which means that we need to get the factors and equate it to be equal to zero. Such that the given expression z² - 15z + 56 = 0 will have a solution shown below:
z² - 15z + 56 = 0
The expression will have a and b values such as a = - 7 and b = -8.
z² - 15z + 56 = 0
(z -7) (z-8) = 0
solving for the first value of z, we have it:
z - 7 = 0
z = 7
Solving for the second value of z, we have it:
z - 8 = 0
z = 8

Therefore, the answer to this problem is the letter "A" which is 7 and 8.

The Darnells are having a swimming pool installed. The pool has a radius of 14 feet and a height of 4 feet. What is the volume of the pool? Use 3.14 for pi .

Answers

volume = pi x r^2 x h

3.14 x 4 x 14^2 = 2461.76 cubic feet

Fixed the typo I had in my answer.

Answer:

So volume of the swimming pool is 2461.76 feet³.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Darnells are having a swimming pool installed.

The pool has a radius of 14 feet and height of 4 feet.

Since pool is in the form of a cylinder so volume of cylinder

= πr²h

= π (14)² × 4

= (3.14) (196) × 4

= 2461.76 cubic feet.

So volume of the swimming pool is 2461.76 feet³.

A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 165 feet per second. What is this rate in meters per second? At this rate, how many meters will the parachutist fall during 5 seconds of free fall? In your computations, assume that 1 meter is equal to 3.3 feet. Do not round your answers.

Answers

Answer: [tex]250\ m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that:

[tex]1\ m=3.3\ ft[/tex]

We can make the conversion from feet per second to meters per second with this procedure:

[tex](165\ \frac{ft}{s})(\frac{1\ m}{3.3\ ft})=50\ \frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Let be "x" the amount of meters the parachutist will fall during 5 seconds of free fall

Knowing that in 1 second the parachutist falls 50 meters, we can calculate "x" by solving the following multiplication:

[tex]x=(50\ \frac{m}{s})(5\ s)\\\\x=250\ m[/tex]

Final answer:

The parachutist's rate of free fall is 165 feet per second, which is equivalent to 50 meters per second. The parachutist will fall approximately 250 meters during 5 seconds of free fall.

Explanation:

To convert the rate of 165 feet per second to meters per second, we need to use the conversion factor of 1 meter equals 3.3 feet. So, the rate in meters per second is 165 feet per second divided by 3.3 feet per meter, which equals 50 meters per second.

To find how many meters the parachutist will fall during 5 seconds of free fall, we can multiply the rate of 50 meters per second by the time of 5 seconds. This gives us 250 meters of free fall during 5 seconds.

pertinent rules of exponents:

(a^b)^c=a^(b*c),  (a^b)(a^c)=a^(b+c), and (a^b)/(a^c)=a^(b-c) so

(2f^(4*2)*f^3)/(6f^9)

(2f^8*f^3)/(6f^9)

(2f^(8+3))/(6f^9)

(2f^11)/(6f^9)

(2/6)(f^11/f^9)

(1/3)(f^(11-9)

(1/3)(f^2)

(f^2)/3

Final answer:

The expression 2(f^4)^2 f^3 divided by 6f^9 simplifies to 1/3 f^2, after applying the properties of exponents and dividing coefficients.

Explanation:

To simplify the expression 2(f^4)^2 f^3 divided by 6f^9, we need to use the properties of exponents. First, we simplify (f^4)^2 by multiplying the exponents, which gives us f^8.

Then, we multiply f^8 by f^3 to get f^11. Next, we divide our new expression 2f^11 by 6f^9. This can be done by dividing the coefficients (2 divided by 6) and subtracting the exponents of f (11 minus 9), resulting in f^2 over 3, or 1/3 f^2.

Height of cylinder = 10 cm

Volume of cylinder would be

[tex]\pi r^2h\\\\=3.14\times 5\times 5\times 10\\\\=785\ cm^3[/tex]

Weight of 10W-40 oil = 0.857 grams per cubic cm

A translation followed by a reflection is called a 'glide reflection'

Answer:

Glide reflection

Step-by-step explanation:

A glide reflection is a composition of a translation and a reflection across a line parallel to the direction of translation. A glide reflection requires a translation on a figure, which is then reflected over a line. This is a symmetry operation that requires a translation rule and a line to reflect over. A common example of this are footsteps in the sand.

The diameter of a brand of tennis balls is approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 2.63 inches and a standard deviation of 0.03 inch. if you select a random sample of 9 tennis balls, what is the probability that the sample mean is between 2.62 and 2.64 inches

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that the sample mean diameter is between 2.62 and 2.64 inches is approximately 68.27%, calculated using the Central Limit Theorem to find the standard error and z-scores.

Explanation:

To calculate the probability that the sample mean diameter of the tennis balls is between 2.62 and 2.64 inches, we can use the Central Limit Theorem since we are dealing with a sample of tennis balls rather than just one. The Central Limit Theorem tells us that the sampling distribution of the sample mean will be normally distributed with a mean equal to the population mean (μ) and a standard deviation equal to the population standard deviation (σ) divided by the square root of the sample size (n), which is called the standard error (SE).

Given that the population mean (μ) is 2.63 inches, the population standard deviation (σ) is 0.03 inch, and the sample size (n) is 9, we first calculate the standard error (SE) as follows:

SE = σ / √n = 0.03 / √9 = 0.03 / 3 = 0.01 inch.

Next, we convert the sample mean range (2.62, 2.64) to z-scores, which are measures of how many standard deviations an element is from the mean.

Z for 2.62 = (2.62 - μ) / SE = (2.62 - 2.63) / 0.01 = -0.01 / 0.01 = -1
Z for 2.64 = (2.64 - μ) / SE = (2.64 - 2.63) / 0.01 = 0.01 / 0.01 = 1

Using a standard normal distribution table or calculator, we find the probabilities corresponding to these z-scores. The probability of a z-score being between -1 and 1 is approximately 0.6827 (68.27%).

Therefore, the probability that the sample mean diameter is between 2.62 and 2.64 inches is approximately 68.27%.
