In the Mississippi River Delta, fresh water (0% salinity) mixes with salt water from the Gulf of Mexico (3 1 2% salinity). If 1,000 gallons of river water mixes with 3,000 gallons from the Gulf, how many gallons result, and what is its percent salinity? (Estimate a reasonable percent range for your answer before you solve.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The total resulting gallons of water is 4,000 gallons

The concentration of the resulting solution is 2.625% salinity

Step-by-step explanation:

The salinity of the fresh water from the Mississippi River Delta = 0%

The salinity  of the water from the Gulf of Mexico = 3 1/2%

Therefore, if 1,000 gallons of river water mixes with 3,000 gallons from the Gulf, we have;

The total resulting gallons of water = 1,000 + 3,000 = 4,000 gallons

The total resulting gallons of water = 4,000 gallons

The concentration of the resulting solution is found as follows;

The concentration of the resulting solution = (3 × 3 1/2)/400 × 100 = 2.625%

The concentration of the resulting solution = 2.625% salinity.

find the equation of the line that is parallel to y = 3x - 2 and contains the points ( 2,11 )

Answers

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y' = mx + b be the equation of the second line

● m is the slope

● b is the y-intercept

The lines are parallel so they have the

same slope.

● y' = 3x + b

The second line crosses the point with the coordinates (2,11)

Replace y' by 11 and x by 2 to find b

● 11 = 3×2 + b

● 11 = 6 + b

Substract 6 from both sides

● 11 - 6 = 6 + b -6

● b = 5

So

● y' = 3x + 5

OA) 3.456^14
OB) 3.456 *10^6
OC) 3.456 x 10^14
OD) 3.456 x 10^-14

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know what what the display on the calculator means.

Well, the expression has to do with how scientific calculators display powers of 10.

So what this means is that the value 3.456 is raised to the power of 14.

This is a way in which the screen of the scientific calculators maximizes the space on their screens.

Perhaps, we have the result of a multiplication to the powers of 27. It would be quite funny seeing 27 zeros lying on the screen of the calculator right? isn’t it?

So the calculator makes a better way of this by just printing E 27 and this automatically means 10 raised to the power of 27

This makes our answer C

Kindly note that the + sign indicates that the power of the 10 is positive 14.

The ratio of the profit, cost of materials and labour in the production of an article is 5:7:13 respectively. If the cost of materials is Le 840 more than that of labour, find the total cost of producing the article

Answers

Answer:

Total cost is 2,800

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ratio 5:7:13 represents profit to cost of materials to labour.

However it is stated that cost of materials is Le 840 more than that of labour

Cost of material - 840 = labour

Cost of material = labour - 840

Let

Cost of material be x, and labour be y

x ÷ y = 7 ÷ 13 (equation 1)

x = y - 840 (equation 2)

Substitute x from equation 1 in equation 2

(y - 840) ÷ y = 7 ÷ 13

13 (y -840) = 7y

y = 1,820

Substitute value of y in equation 2

x = 1820 - 840

x = 980

So total cost is cost of material plus cost of labour = 980 + 1820 = 2,800

This will satisfy the ratio of 5:7:13 representing profit to cost of materials to labour

The back of Tom's property is a creek. Tom would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fencing for the other three sides, to create a pasture. If there is 920 feet of fencing available, what is the maximum possible area of the pasture

Answers

Answer:

Max Area = 105,800 sq.ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A square will always give us the maximum area.

Thus, one side would be;

920/4 = 230 feet

So, we want a square 230 ft by 230 ft

however, from the question, we are to use the creek as one side. So, we'll take the 230 ft that we don't need because of the creek and then add it to the opposite side to get 230 + 230 = 460 ft.

Thus,we now have a rectangle with dimensions: 230 ft by 460 ft

Area is given by;

area = length × width

Maximum Area = 230 × 460

Max Area = 105,800 sq.ft

Answers

Answer:

            5 spugs is 560% of 1 spig

Step-by-step explanation:

a - spig

b - speeg

c - spoog

d - spug

40% of one spig is a spoog:  40%a = c

25% of a speeg is a spoog:    25%b = c

70% of a speeg is a spug:       70%b = d

what percent of 1 spig is 5 spugs?:     x%a = 5d

40%a = c  and  25%b = c

40%a = 25%b

[tex]b=\frac{40\%a}{25\%}=1.6a[/tex]

d = 70%b = 70%•1.6a = 112%a

Whats the least common denominator of the expression g to the second power over 9 minus g to the second power plus 14 plus g over 24g plus 8g to the second power

Answers

Answer:

The least common denominator of the expression is 72g.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let us write the expression out mathematically

[tex]\frac{g^{2} }{9} - g^{2} + 14 + \frac{g}{24g} + 8g^{2}[/tex]

The denominators in the expression are 9 and 24g. To find the least common denominator, we will determine the least common multiple of the numbers (9 and 24) first, and then find the least common multiple of the result and g (since it is the only letter).

Multiples of 9 = 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, ...

Multiples of 24 = 24, 48, 72, 96, ...

The least common multiple of 9 and 24 is 72.

Then, the least common multiple of 72 and g is 72g

Hence, the least common denominator of the expression is 72g.

Answers

Answer:

What's the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive function f(7) is = 7.f(8).

What is a recursive function ?

A recursive function is a form of arithmetic or geometric sequence which repeats.

According to the given question f(5) = 20.58 and f(6) = 2.9.

Given it is a recursive function so it could be in form of arithmetic sequence or geometric sequence.

We have asked f(7) is how many times of f(8) from here we can conclude that it is in the form of geometric sequence.

f(5) = 20.58 and f(6) = 2.94 so the common ratio of n/(n-1) is

= 20.58/2.94

= 7.

Or we can say that f(5) is 7 times of f(6) which is 7.f(6) = f(5).

∴ f(7) = 7.f(8) = (1/7)f(6) = 0.42.
