2) [8 points] Benjamin wishes to strengthen a mixture that is 10% alcohol to
one that is 30% alcohol. How much pure alcohol should they add to 12L of
the 10% mixture?

Answers

Answer 1

you need to add 3.43 liters of pure alcohol to reach a concentration of 30%.

How much pure alcohol should they add to 12L of the 10% mixture?

Let's define the variable x as the number of liters of the 30% that you need to use.

The concentration of the mixture then will be:

1*x +  0.1*12

Where the concentration for the x liters is 100%, because this is pure alcohol, and for the 12 liters we use a concentration of 10%.

Now, that must be equal to a mixture with a concentration of the 30%, then we can write:

x + 0.1*12 = (x + 12)*0.3

Now we just need to solve this linear equation for x.

x + 1.2 = x*0.3 + 12*0.3

x - x*0.3 = 12*0.3 - 1.2

x*0.7 = 12*0.3 - 1.2

x = (12*0.3 - 1.2)/0.7 = 3.43

This means that you need to add 3.43 liters of pure alcohol to reach a concentration of 30%.

The scientific notation to write the number -20,000 with a power of 10.

The scientific notation to write the number -20,000 with a power of 10 is -2 ×10⁴.

Given that

The number is -20,000

To find

We have to find the scientific notation form of number -20,000

So, according to the question

We have

The number = -20,000

For finding the scientific notation form of given number, first we have to know about scientific notation with a power of 10.

Scientific notation with a power of 10

To write any number with the help of power of 10 in very easy way is telling Scientific notation with a power of 10 . Because in that universe there is a lots of smallest and largest number present, so we can't write every numbers in single page. To write that numbers in very easy way the scientists was create a way to write that numbers with the help of power of 10.  

   

So, now we can convert that number in a form of Scientific notation.

n = -20,000

Now multiply [tex]\frac{10^4}{10^{4}}[/tex], we will get

n = -20,000 × [tex]\frac{10^4}{10^{4}}[/tex]

n = [tex]\frac{-20,000\times 10^4}{10000}[/tex]

n = - 2× 10⁴

The scientific notation with the power of 10 form of -20,000 is - 2× 10⁴.

Angle measurement of 134.26° becomes 134° 15' 36" in DMS notation.

What is DMS notation?The standard way to express fractional parts of a degree is in decimal form or in minutes and seconds. The units of a degree are a minute (') and a second (′′). For degrees, minutes, and seconds, this form is frequently referred to as the DMS Form. Use the decimal's whole number portion for the degrees.Divide the final decimal by 60 to get the number of minutes. Use the answer's whole number component as minutes.The new decimal that is left after multiplying by 60 is the seconds.

So, an angle measure of 134.26° is converted to DMS notation as:

The cost of purple dye has been increasing over the last few months, and Robyn uses this dye as part of her tie dye scarf business. She’s worried that it will continue to rise to the point where she no longer makes a profit on her scarf sales. She currently has a 20% profit margin ([price - unit costs]/price) and dye is currently 60% of unit costs. What is the lowest percentage increase in the cost of dye that would make Robyn’s scarves unprofitable?

Answers

The lowest percentage increase in the cost of dye that would make the scarves unprofitable is 42%

How to calculate the percentage?

(Price- Unit Cost)/Price= 20% or 0.2

Price- Unit Cost= 0.2 Price

0.8 Price = Unit Cost

Let Unit Cost be x

Price = x/0.8= 1.25x

Dye is 60% of unit costs= 0.6x

Cost of remaining material= 1 - 0.6x = 0.4x

Unit Cost= Cost of Dye+ Cost of remaining material

So, in order to become unprofitable, Unit Cost must be 1.25x

Therefore

1.25x= Maximum cost of dye+ 0.4x

Maximum Cost of Dye = (1.25-0.4)x = 0.85x

Percentage change in cost of dye= {(0.85x-0.6x)/0.6x}*100= 41.66 or 42%

Therefore, theowest percentage increase in the cost of dye that would make the scarves unprofitable is 42%.

The height of a triangle is 4 ft less than the base x. The area is 126ft^2 find the dimensions of the triangle

Answers

The dimension of the triangle are base = 18 ft , height = 14 ft .

The area of ​​a triangle is defined as the total area bounded by the three sides of a given triangle. It's basically equal to half the base multiplied by the height which is given by [tex]A=\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h[/tex]       ..(1)

It is given that height of a triangle is 4 ft less than the base x which can be represented as height = x - 4   ....(2)  and base = x

Putting above values in equation (1) , we get

   [tex]126=\frac{1}{2} \times(x-4)\times x\\252=x(x-4)\\252=x^2-4x\\x^2-4x-252=0[/tex]

On factorizing , we get

  [tex]x^2-(18x-14x)-252=0\\(x^2-18x)+(14x-252)=0\\x(x-18)+14(x-18)=0\\(x+14)(x-18)=0[/tex]

On equating it with zero , we get

  [tex]x+14=0\\x=-14[/tex]

as length cannot be in negative so , we will not consider this solution.

After factorization, the factors are  (x - 22) (x + 10).

What is factorization?In mathematics, factorization is the process of dividing a large number into smaller numbers that, when multiplied together, yield the original number. Factorization occurs when you divide a number into its factors or divisors. For example, the factorization of the number 12 could be 3 times 4. The Greatest common factor (GCF), the Grouping method, the difference in two squares, and the sum or difference in cubes are the four main types of factoring.

So, x² - 12x - 220:

x² - 12x - 220x² - x( 22 - 10 ) - 220x² - 22x + 10x - 220x(x - 22) + 10(x - 22)Factors: (x - 22) (x + 10)
