How much 30% paint thinner solution should be added to a gallon of 10% paint thinner solution to make a solution that is 20% paint thinner

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 1 gallon

Explanation:

You can set an equation in this way:

1) Number of gallons of 30% thinner solution to be added: x gallons

2) Amount of thineer in the x gallons: 0.30x

3) Amount of thineer in the 1 gallon solution of 10% thinner: 0.10 (1) = 0.10

4) Number of gallons of the final solution, which is 20%: 1 + x

5) Amount of thineer in the final 20% solution: 0.2 (1 + x)

6) Equality:

Amount of thinner in the 30% solution + amount of thinner in the 10% solution = amount of thinner in the 20% solution

0.30x + 0.1 = 0.2 (1 + x)

7) Solve

0.3x - 0.2x = 0.2 - 0.1

0.1x = 0.1

x = 1

That is 1 gallon of 30% thinner solution should be added.

The scale factor of a figure and its enlargement is 6. What is the new length of the enlarged figure if the original length is 3 cm?
3 cm
6 cm
18 cm
36 cm

Answers

You multiply three times six.

3 x 6 = 18


Answer:

The new length of the enlarged figure will 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale factor is a number which scales, or multiplies the original figure by some quantity.

In the equation [tex]y = Cx[/tex], C is a scale factor for x. It is called the constant of proportionality or scale factor of y to x.

As the given length is 3 cm, so with a scale factor of 6, the length of the enlarged figure will be [tex]3\times 6=18[/tex] cm

Therefore, the new length of the enlarged figure will 18 cm.

To solve this system of equations by elimination, what operation could be used to eliminate the y-variable and find the value of x? 2x − 4y = 6 −3x + 3y = 12 A) add 3 times the second equation to 4 times the first equation B) add 4 times the second equation to 3 times the first equation C) subtract 3 times the second equation from 4 times the first equation D) subtract 4 times the second equation from 3 times the first equation

Answers

Answer:

Option B is correct.

add 4 times the second equation to 3 times the first equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equation:

[tex]2x - 4y = 6[/tex]                         ......[1]

[tex]-3x + 3y =12[/tex]                       .....[2]

Multiply equation [1] by 3 we get;

[tex]3(2x-4y) = 3 \cdot 6[/tex]

Using distributive property; [tex]a\cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c[/tex]

6x - 12y = 18                                   .......[3]

Multiply equation [2] by 4 we get;

[tex]4(-3x+3y) = 4 \cdot 12[/tex]

Using distributive property we get;

-12x + 12y = 48                                   ......[4]

Add equation [3] and [4] to eliminate y and solve for x;

(6x -12y) + ( -12x +12y ) = 18 + 48

6x - 12y -12x + 12y = 66

Combine like terms;

6x - 12x = 66

or

-6x = 66

Simplify:

x = -11

Therefore, the operation which could be used to eliminate the y-variable and find the value of x is;

add 4 times the second equation to 3 times the first equation.

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a system of two equations as

[tex]2x − 4y = 6 \\−3x + 3y = 12[/tex]

To solve them using elimination:

Elimination method is the method of making coefficients of one variable numerically equal

IN the given system we have -4 as coefficient for y in I equation and 3 for y in II equation.

To make them numerically equal with opposite signs we can multiply I equation by 3 and II by 4

WE get

[tex]6x-12y =18\\-12x+12y=48[/tex]

Now if we add these two we are able to eliminate y from the system

Adding gives

[tex]-6x=66\\x=-11[/tex]

So option B is right

-2x+3 > x +24

Show steps how you got your solution

Answers

- 2x + 3 > x + 24

First we must get all variables on the same side and constants on the opposite side. To do so we subtract x from the right and the left. Then subtract 3 from both sides as well. 

- 2x - x > 24 - 3 

Now we combine like terms:

- 3x > 21

We must isolate the variable x. In order to do so, we divide both sides by - 3. When you divide by a negative number, you must also flip the inequality so the greater than becomes a less than. 

x < 21 / - 3

x < - 7 is your answer. 
Hello!

You can solve this algebraically

-2x + 3 > x + 24

Subtract x from both sides

-3x + 3 > 24

Subtract 3 from both sides

-3x > 21

Divide both sides by -3

Since you divided by a negative you flip the sign

x < -7

The answer is x < -7 or any number that is greater than -7

Answers

For this case we have the following equation:
 T = 2π√L / 32
 Clearing L we have:
 T / 2π = √L / 32
 (T / 2π) ^ 2 = L / 32
 L = 32 * (T / 2π) ^ 2
 Substituting values:
 L = 32 * (8.72 / (2 * (3.14))) ^ 2
 L = 61.69694511 feet
 Round to the nearest foot:
 L = 62 feet
 Answer:
 
L = 62 feet
 In this situation, you have to use the equation
T = 2π√L / 32
 We need to find L so we have:
 T / 2π = √L / 32
 (T / 2π) ^ 2 = L / 32
 L = 32 * (T / 2π) ^ 2

 Substitute the values:
 L = 32 * (8.72 / (2 * (3.14))) ^ 2
 L = 61.69694511 feet
 L = 62 feet
 So the Answer is

Final answer:

The student's conversion calculation of speed units from kilometers per minute to miles per hour yields a speed of 2.4 miles/hour, so the answer is choice A.

Explanation:

The question is a conversion exercise in speed units from kilometers per minute to miles per hour. We have the following information: 3.2 km in 50 min, and we know that 1 mile is equivalent to 1.6 km and 60 min is equivalent to 1 hour. Thus, the conversion is as follows:

3.2 km ÷ 50 min. = 0.064 km/min.

Converting km/min to mi/hr involves multiplying by 60 (minutes in an hour) and dividing by 1.6 (km in a mile), and we get:

(0.064 km/min x 60 min/hr) ÷ 1.6 km/mi. = 2.4 mi/hr.

Hence, the correct answer is (A) 2.4 miles/hour.
