The equation for the pH of a substance is pH = –log[H+], where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ions. A basic solution has a

pH of 11.2. An acidic solution has a pH of 2.4. What is the approximate difference in the concentration of hydrogen ions between the two solutions?

Answer:

0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

Step-by-step explanation:

The concentration of H+ ions in the acid will be ...

10^(-2.4) ≈ 0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

The concentration of H+ ions in the base will be ...

10^-11.2 ≈ 0.000 000 000 006310 . . . . moles per liter

To a few decimal places, the difference is ...

0.003981 . . . . moles per liter

_____

The two numbers differ by about 9 orders of magnitude, so the value of the difference between the larger and the smaller is essentially the value of the larger number. The smaller one, by comparison, can be considered to be zero (for subtraction purposes).

In parallelogram ABCD , diagonals AC⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ and BD⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ intersect at point E, AE=x2−16 , and CE=6x .
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

<h3>AC=96 units.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a parallelogram ABCD with diagonals AC and BD intersect at point E.

AE=x^2-16. , and CE=6x .

<em>Note: The diagonals of a parallelogram intersects at mid-point.</em>

Therefore, AE = EC.

Plugging expressions for AE and EC, we get

x^2-16=6x.

Subtracting 6x from both sides, we get

x^2-16-6x=6x-6x

x^2-6x-16=0

Factoriong quadratic by product sum rule.

We need to find the factors of -16 that add upto -6.

-16 has factors -8 and +2 that add upto -6.

Therefore, factor of x^2-6x-16=0 quadratic is (x-8)(x+2)=0

Setting each factor equal to 0 and solve for x.

x-8=0  => x=8

x+2=0  => x=-2.

We can't take x=-2 as it's a negative number.

Therefore, plugging x=8 in EC =6x, we get

EC = 6(8) = 48.

<h3>AC = AE + EC = 48+48 =96 units.</h3>

A maple syrup company is making a new label for its barrels of syrup. If the barrels are 5 feet tall and have a radius of 2 feet
Elanso [62]

Answer:

(A)62.8 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the barrels = 5 feet

Radius of the barrels= 2 feet

\pi=3.14

The barrel is in the shape of a cylinder and the area of the label the company needs is that of the round sides(curved surface area) of the cylinder.

Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder=2\pi rh

=2X3.14X2X5

=62.8 square feet

The company need 62.8 square feet of label.

The length of time it takes to find a parking space at 9 A.M. follows a normal distribution with a mean of 7 minutes and a stand
julsineya [31]

Answer:

There is a 2.28% probability that it takes less than one minute to find a parking space. Since this probability is smaller than 5%, you would be surprised to find a parking space so fast.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X.

Also, a probability is unusual if it is lesser than 5%. If it is unusual, it is surprising.

In this problem:

The length of time it takes to find a parking space at 9 A.M. follows a normal distribution with a mean of 7 minutes and a standard deviation of 3 minutes, so \mu = 7, \sigma = 3.

We need to find the probability that it takes less than one minute to find a parking space.

So we need to find the pvalue of Z when X = 1

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{1 - 7}{3}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228.

There is a 2.28% probability that it takes less than one minute to find a parking space. Since this probability is smaller than 5%, you would be surprised to find a parking space so fast.
