The total is 275 because 100% divided by 20% is 5 and if 20%= 55 then that means that 55 goes into 100% 5 times so you multiply 55 by 5 to get 275. Hope I helped! Please rate me as the brainliest!

A tank contains 8000 L of pure water. Brine that contains 35 g of salt per liter of water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 2
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The concentration of salt in the tank approaches 35 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{L},

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provide in the question:

Water contained in the tank = 8000 L

Salt per litre contained in Brine = 35 g/L

Rate of pumping water into the tank = 25 L/min

Concentration of salt \lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} C(t)=\lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{35 t}{320+t}

Now,

Dividing both numerator and denominator by t, we have

\lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{\frac{1}{t} 35 t}{\frac{1}{t}(320+t)}=\lim _{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{35}{\frac{320}{t}+1}=35

Here,

The concentration of salt in the tank approaches 35 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{L},

a shopkeeper sold goods for rs 2400 and made a profit of 25% in the process. find his profit per cent if he had sold his goods f
miv72 [106K]

case 1,

Let the CP be ₹x,

SP = ₹2400

Profit = SP – CP

= 2400 – x

Profit % = {(2400–x)/ x} × 100%

According to the question,

{(2400–x)/ x} × 100 = 25

=> (2400–x)/ x= 25 /100

=> 100(2400–x) = 25x [ cross multiplication]

=> 240000 – 100x = 25x

=> 240000 = 25x + 100x

=> 240000 = 125x

=> 240000/125 = x

=> x = 1920

So, CP = ₹1920

case 2,

SP = ₹2040

Profit = SP – CP

= 2040 – 1920

= ₹120

profit % = 120/1920 × 100%

= 16%

<h3>Thus, his profit would be 16% if he had sold his goods for ₹2040.</h3>

In 2004, a magazine's circulation was about 1,000,000 readers. In 2014, the magazine had about 2,000,000 readers. Write a linear
professor190 [17]

Answer:

r(t)=100,000t+600,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

r ----> the number of readers (y-coordinate or dependent variable)

t ----> the number of years after 2000 (x-coordinate or independent variable)

Remember

2004 ----> represent t=4 years

2014 ----> represent t=14 years

we have the ordered pairs

(4,1,000,000) and (14,2,000,000)

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values

m=\frac{2,000,000-1,000,000}{14-4}

m=\frac{1,000,000}{10}

m=100,000\frac{readers}{year}

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

r-r1=m(t-t1)

we have

m=100,000\\point\ (4,1,000,000)

substitute

r-1,000,000=100,000(t-4)

step 3

Convert to slope intercept form

r=mt+b

isolate the variable r

r-1,000,000=100,000t-400,000\\r=100,000t-400,000+1,000,000\\r=100,000t+600,000

step 4

Convert to function notation

r(t)=100,000t+600,000

Amy has a box containing 6 white, 4 red, and 8 black marbles. She picks a marble randomly. It is red. The second time, she picks
kati45 [8]

Answer: The probability that the fourth marble Amy picks is black =\frac{8}{15}

The probability that in the fifth attempt she will pick a red or a black marble P(R∩B) =\frac{5}{7}


Step-by-step explanation:

To find  the probability that in the fifth attempt she will pick a red or a black marble P(R∩B) .

The total marble in beginning=6+4+8=18

After 3 attempts, the total  marbles left=18-3=15

The number of black marbles =8

The probability that the fourth marble Amy picks is black =\frac{8}{15}

As four marble has already picked up, then the total marbles left in the box

=18-4=14

Now, as a red marble is already picked in 1st attempt , the number of red marbles in the box now= 4-1=3

And a black marble is already picked in fourth attempt , the number of black marbles in the box now= 8-1=7

Now P(R∩B)=P(R)+P(B)=\frac{3}{14}+\frac{7}{14}=\frac{10}{14}=\frac{5}{7}
