Shelby mixes a 25% bleach solution with 5 cups of a 10% bleach solution, resulting in a 20% bleach solution. The table shows the

amount of each solution used. A table titled Bleach Solution showing Cups, Bleach concentration, and Total. The first row shows 10 percent Bleach with 5, 0.10, and 0.5. The second row shows, 25 percent bleach, with x, 0.25, and 0.25 x. The third row shows Mixture, with 5 plus x, 0.20, and 3. What is the value of x? 1 3 10 24

Answer:

The value of x is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a system of equations to solve this.

Cups of 25% bleach solution used = x

Cups of 1-% bleach solution used = 5

Cups of solution we get = y

The first equation becomes:

x + 5 = y

Using the decimal forms of each percentage solution

25% solution for x cups = 0.25x

10% solution for 5 cups = 0.1(5)

20% solution for y cups = 0.2 y

The second equation becomes:

0.25x + 0.1(5) = 0.2y

So the system of equations is:

x + 5 = y

0.25x + 0.1(5) = 0.2y

Solve both equations simultaneously to find the values of x and y:

x = 10 cups

y = 15 cups

Answer:

a) 42°F < x < 176°F

b) The inequality graph is attached.

c) No, This is because at 20° F benzene would not be in liquid form but in solid form.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

a) For the benzene to remain in liquid form, the temperature of benzene must be less than the boiling point and greater than the boiling point. Let x be the temperature of benzene, For benzene to remain as liquid, its temperature must be between:

42°F < x < 176°F

b) The inequality graph is attached. The graph shows that the temperature of benzene must be between 42°F and 176°F so that it would be a liquid. The Closed circles represent that it is greater than 2.

c) No, This is because at 20° F benzene would not be in liquid form but in solid form. Because the temperature cannot go below 42 before it freezes, she would not have been able to conduct her research .

M&amp;M plain candies come in various colors. According to the M&amp;M/Mars Department of Consumer Affairs, the distribution of
UkoKoshka [18]
Since the Σ( of all colors )= 100%,  OR 1, then:

a) P(GREEN ∪ BLUEU) = P(G) + P(BL) = 8%+6% = 14% or 0.14

Since we have to choose ONE candy and only ONE candy at random, then tey are mutually exclusive: No. Choosing a green and blue M&M is possible

b) P(YELLOW ∪ RED) = P(Y) + P(R) = 18%+18% = 36% or 0.36
SAME ANSWER AS BEFORE: mutually exclusive

c) P(NOT PURPLE), Let's calculate 1st, the probability of having a PURPLE:
P(PURPLE) = 21% or 0.21
And the Probability of NOT having a PURPLE is 1-0.21 = 0.79

kifflom [539]

Answer:

$122.89

Step-by-step explanation:

The two number you have in this equation are 108.75 and 13% (or .13)

first you want to multiply 108.75 to .13

108.75 * .13 = 14.1375

Now, you add 14.1375 to 180.75 and round to the nearest hundredth

180.75+ 14.1375=122.8875

$122.89
