George wants 42 liters of a mixture of water and 15% lemon juice. he has a mixture of 5% lemon juice and a mixture of 20% lemon juice. how many liters of the 5% and 20% mixtures should he mix to get what he wants? (round you answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.)

Answers

Answer 1

The amount of 5% lemon juice mixture and 20% lemon juice mixture that needed to be mixed is 14 liters and 28 liters, respectively.

What are Percentages?

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Let the amount of 5% lemon juice mixture that is needed to be mixed be represented by x, then the amount of 20% lemon juice mixture will be represented by (42-x), because the total mixture is needed to be 42 liters.

Now, given that George wants 42 liters of a mixture of water and 15% lemon juice with a mixture of 5% lemon juice, and a mixture of 20% lemon juice. Therefore, we can write,

5% of x + 20% of (42-x) = 15% of 42 liters

0.05x + 0.2(42 - x) = (0.15×42)

0.05x + 8.4 - 0.2x = 6.3

0.05x - 0.2x = 6.3 - 8.4

-0.15x = -2.1

x = -2.1 / -0.15

x = 14

Further, the amount of mixture of lemon juice that is needed to be mixed can be written as,

5% lemon juice mixture, x = 14 liters20% lemon juice mixture, (42 - x) = 28 liters

Hence, the amount of 5% lemon juice mixture and 20% lemon juice mixture that needed to be mixed is 14 liters and 28 liters, respectively.

Find the length of a picture frame whose width is 3 inches and whose proportions are the same as a 9-inch wide by 15-inch long picture frame.

Answers

Answer:

The length is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the proportions are the same, 3 is 3 times less than 9. The same applies to 15, which 3 times less would be 5. It has a ratio of 3:5.

To pay for a home improvement project that totals $9,000, Genesis is choosing between taking out a simple interest bank loan at 9% for 3 years or paying with a credit card that compounds monthly at an annual rate of 18% for 7 years. Which plan would give Genesis the lowest monthly payment?

The monthly credit card payment would be $295, which is lower than the monthly payment on the bank loan.
The monthly payment on a bank loan would be $272.50, which is lower than the monthly credit card payment.
The monthly payment on a bank loan would be $317.50, which is lower than the monthly credit card payment.
The monthly credit card payment would be $374.21, which is lower than the monthly payment on the bank loan.

Answers

well, first off, let's see how much each one costs per month.

so, hmmm if she goes with the Bank loan at 9% for 3 years

[tex]~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$9000\\ r=rate\to 9\%\to \frac{9}{100}\dotfill &0.09\\ t=years\dotfill &3 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=9000[1+(0.09)(3)] \implies \boxed{A = 11430}[/tex]

now, that's for 36 months, so she'd be owing the Bank per month [tex]\cfrac{\stackrel{total}{11430}}{\underset{months}{36}}~~ = ~~\text{\LARGE 317.5}[/tex]

now let's take a look at the Credit Card's loan at 18% for 7 years

[tex]~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill &\$9000\\ r=rate\to 18\%\to \frac{18}{100}\dotfill &0.18\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{monthly, thus twelve} \end{array}\dotfill &12\\ t=years\dotfill &7 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=9000\left(1+\frac{0.18}{12}\right)^{12\cdot 7} \implies A \approx \boxed{31433.31}[/tex]

now, in 7 years there are 84 months, thus  [tex]\cfrac{\stackrel{total}{31433.31}}{\underset{months}{84}}\approx \text{\LARGE 374.21}[/tex]

so, the Bank will give her a better deal per month, and to be honest altogether.

The plan with simple interest will give the lowest monthly repayment.

The monthly payment on a bank loan would be $317.50, which is lower than the monthly credit card payment.

Option C is the correct answer.

What are simple interest and compound interest?

Simple interest is a method to calculate the amount of interest charged on a sum at a given rate and for a given period of time.

Compound interest is the interest that is made from the principal and the interest as well in consecutive years.

We have,

Simple interest:

Principal = $9000

Rate = 9%

Time = 3 years

Simple interest:

= P x R x T / 100

= 9000 x 9 x 3 / 100

= 2430

Amount = simles interest + principal

A = 9000 + 2430 = $11430

3 years = 36 months

Monthly  payment = 11430 / 36 = $317.5

Compound interest:

Principal = $9000

Rate = 18%

Time = 7 years

A = P [tex](1 + \frac{18}{100}) ^{7}[/tex]

A = 9000 [tex](1 + 0.18) ^{7}[/tex]

A = 9000 x3.19

Amount = $28,710

7 years = 84 months

Monthly payment = 28710 / 84 = $341.78

Thus,

The plan with simple interest will give the lowest monthly repayment.

The monthly payment on a bank loan would be $317.50, which is lower than the monthly credit card payment.

The value of Cos(4π/3) is (-1/2) i.e., negative one half.

The given function is Cosine (Start fraction 4 pi over 3 end fraction) and this can be written simply as,

Cos(4π/3)

On splitting 4π/3 in two parts, this can also be written as

= Cos(π + (π/3))

(π + (π/3)) lies in the third quadrant and in the third quadrant the value of cosine function is negative. So, using quadrant sign for cosine function, this can be written as

= -Cos(π/3)

Now, Substitute the value of Cos(π/3) = 1/2.

= (-1/2)

Cos(4π/3) = (-1/2)

The value of the function at x = -3, -2, 0, 1, and 5 will be -7, -5, -1, 1, and 9, respectively.

What is the value of the expression?

When the relevant factors and natural laws of a mathematical model are given values, the outcome of the calculation it describes is the expression's outcome.

The function is given below.

f(x) = 2x - 1

The value of the function at x = - 3 will be

f(-3) = 2(-3) - 1

f(-3) = - 6 - 1

f(-3) = - 7

The value of the function at x = - 2 will be

f(-2) = 2(-2) - 1

f(-2) = - 4 - 1

f(-2) = - 5

The value of the function at x = 0 will be

f(0) = 2(0) - 1

f(0) = 0 - 1

f(0) = - 1

The value of the function at x = 1 will be

f(1) = 2(1) - 1

f(1) = 2 - 1

f(1) = 1

The value of the function at x = 5 will be

f(5) = 2(5) - 1

f(5) = 10 - 1

f(5) = 9

The value of the function at x = -3, -2, 0, 1, and 5 will be -7, -5, -1, 1, and 9, respectively.

Answer : 3v ² +4v+5
Combine the like terms : 5+4v+3v ²
Rewrite the expression: 3v ² +4v+5

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{3} \;v^2 + \boxed{4}\;v + \boxed{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Original expression: 3 + v + 4v² + 2 - v² +3v

Combining like terms in a equation means grouping them together to get a single instance of that term instead of multiple

For example in this expression we can see there is a +4v² and a -v². Group these together and simplify algebraically to get a single v² expression. Do the same with the others.

3 + v + 4v² + 2 - v² +3v

Group the v² terms together to get 4v² - v² = 4v² - 1v² = 3v²  (v² == 1v²)
(since the variables are same we can simply add the coefficients

Now group the v terms and simplify

3 + v + 4v² + 2 - v² + 3v
v + 3v = 4v

Finally group the constants
3 + v + 4v² + 2 - v² +3v
3 + 2 = 5

So the final expression is

3 + 4v + 5

The numbers are what you put in the boxes for each

Usually this process is done in a few steps
3 + v + 4v² + 2 - v² +3v

= (4v² - v²) + (v + 3v) + (3 +2)
= 3v² + 4v + 5

A tank truck fills the gas stations reservoir at the rate of 10 1/4 gallons per minute.if the reservoir was empty and it is now 41 gallons full how long has the tanker been filling the reservoir

Answers

The tanker has been filling the reservoir for 4 minutes given that it fills at a rate of 10 1/4 gallons per minute.

Rate refers to the relationship of two quantities of different units. Usually, it is a measure or quantity of something per unit time.

rate = amount / time

If a tank truck fills the gas station's reservoir at the rate of 10 1/4 gallons per minute, and if the reservoir is empty at the start and become 41 gallons full, we can determine how long the tanker has been filling the reservoir by dividing the final amount by the rate.

time = amount / rate

where amount = 41 gallons

rate = 10 1/4 gallons per minute

time = 41 gallons / 10 1/4 gallons per minute

time = 4 minutes
