a scientist has a bottle that is 5/8 full of solution. he used 2/5 of the solution in the bottle for an experiment. how much of a full bottle of solution does he use?

Answers

Answer 1

Final answer:

The scientist used 9/40 of a full bottle of solution.

Explanation:

To find out how much of a full bottle of solution the scientist used, we first need to calculate the amount that is left in the bottle. The bottle is currently 5/8 full, and the scientist used 2/5 of the solution. To calculate the amount left, we subtract the amount used from the initial amount:



Amount Left = Initial Amount - Amount Used



To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator. The common denominator for 8 and 5 is 40:



Amount Left = 5/8 - 2/5



To subtract the fractions, we need to have the same denominator, which is 40:



Amount Left = (5/8) * (5/5) - (2/5) * (8/8)



Amount Left = 25/40 - 16/40



Amount Left = 9/40



Therefore, the scientist used 9/40 of a full bottle of solution.

Answers

Answer: 1.9

Step-by-step explanation:

because you keep adding 1.9 to get your result

Answer:

11.1

Step-by-step explanation:

3.9 - 1.5 = 2.4

if you add 2.4 to one of the numbers in the sequence it will be the next number.

1.5 + 2.4 = 3.9

3.9 + 2.4 = 6.3

6.3 + 2.4 = 8.7

if this is the case then 8.7 + 2.4 = 11.1

A circle circumference is approximately 76 cm estimate the radius diameter and area of the circle

Answers

Answer: r = 12.1cm, d = 24.2cm, Area = 460.0cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the formula,

Circumference of a circle = πd or 2πr.

To find the radius, we have to equate 76 cm to πd or 2πr and make r or d the subject of the formula. Now

76 = 2πr, don't forget that

π = 22/7 or 3.142

Now make r the subject of the formula

r = 76/2π

= 76/2 x 3.142

= 76/6.284

= 12.1 cm

d = 2r

= 2 x 12.1

= 24.2cm.

Area of the circle is πr²

= 3.142 x (12.1)²

= 3.142 x 146.41

= 460.0 cm²

A rectangular garden is 5 feet long and 3 feet wide. A second rectangular garden has dimensions that are double the dimensions of the first garden. What is the percent of change in perimeter from the first garden to the second garden?

Answers

Percentage change in perimeter is 100%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given length of rectangle 1, length = 5 ft and breadth = 3 ft.

Calculate perimeter of R1 = 2 (length + breadth) = 2 (5 + 3)  = 16 ft

Step 2: Given dimensions of 2nd rectangle is twice the first, length = 10 ft and breadth = 6 ft.

Calculate perimeter of R2 = 2 (10 + 6) = 32 ft

Step 3: Calculate percentage change using the formula, (R2 - R1/R1) [tex]\times[/tex] 100

= (32 - 16/16) [tex]\times[/tex] 100 = 100%

quadratic function of 13 and 2

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} - 15x + 26[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming we want to write a quadratic function with intercepts x=13 and x=2.

Then we can work backwards.

This means that:

x-13=0 and x-2=0

The factored form of this quadratic function becomes:

[tex]f(x) = (x - 13)(x - 2)[/tex]

We expand to get:

[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} - 2x - 13x + 26[/tex]

We simplify to obtain:

[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} - 15x + 26[/tex]

It takes about 14.55 years for quadruple your money

Solution:

Given that,

At 10 percent interest, how long does it take to quadruple your money

Rule of 144:

The Rule of 144 will tell you how long it will take an investment to quadruple

Here,

Rate of interest = 10 %

Therefore, number of years to quadruple your money is obtained by dividing 144 by 10

Rule of 144 Formula:

[tex]N = \frac{144}{R}[/tex]

Where:

N = Number of many years times.

144 = Is the constant variable.

R = Rate of interest.

[tex]\rightarrow N = \frac{144}{10} = 14.4[/tex]

Thus it takes about 14.4 years for quadruple your money.

Another method:

If initial amount is $ 1 and it if quadruples it should be $ 4

We have to find the number of years if rate of interest is 10 %

Let "n" be the number of years

Then we can say,

[tex]Amount = Principal(1+\frac{R}{100})^n[/tex]

[tex]4 = 1(1+\frac{10}{100})^n[/tex]

[tex]4 = 1(1+0.1)^n\\\\4= 1(1.1)^n\\\\4 = 1.1^n\\\\We\ know\ that,\\\\(1.1)^{14.55} = 1.1^n\\\\We\ know\ that\\\\If\ a^m = a^n\ then\ m = n\\\\Therefore,\\\\14.55 = n\\\\n = 14.55[/tex]

Thus Option D 14.55 years is correct

Triangles PQR and XYZ are similar. What is the length of XZ? 6 5.25 3.5 2.57

Answers

Option B: 5.25 is the length of XZ

Explanation:

The triangles PQR and XYZ are similar.

To determine the length of XZ, let us use the similarity theorem.

The theorem states that, "if two sides in one triangle are proportional to two sides in another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the two triangles are similar".

Thus,

[tex]\frac{QR}{YZ} =\frac{PR}{XZ}[/tex]

Let us substitute the values from the diagram, we have,

[tex]\frac{4}{3} =\frac{7}{XZ}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by 3, we get,

[tex]4 =\frac{21}{XZ}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]XZ =\frac{21}{4}=5.25[/tex]

Thus, the length of XZ is 5.25

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

Graph the function y=-2x+6

Answers

Answer:

See photo

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is in slope-intercept form which looks like y = mx + b.

"x" and "y" represent points on the line.

"m" is the slope (how steep the line is) and if the line goes up (+) or down (-).

"b" is the y-intercept, which is where the graph hits the y-axis.

Take information from the equation y=-2x+6. Use the slope and the y-intercept to graph to line.

m = -2  =  [tex]-\frac{2}{1}[/tex]   (Fraction form).

b = 6

Plot a point at the y-intercept on the y-axis

If the y-intercept is 6, so you plot the point at (0, 6). (The y-intercept occurs when x = 0).

Find another point

Count the number of rise and run from the y-intercept.

Remember the slope is [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]

Run is the number of squares moving right. Rise is the number of squares moving up (if positive) or down (if negative).

Since the slope is -2/1, move two squares down and one square to the right to find another point on the line.

Connect the points

You only need two points to make a line. If you want the line to be longer, you can extend it with a ruler.

Remember to add arrows at the ends of the x and y axis.

Also, add arrows to the ends of the the line that you graphed.

How do I solve for Log(x+3)+log2=3 ?

Answers

Answer: x = 995

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation our log doesn't have a base so it is given the default base of 10. This makes our equation really.

[tex]log_{10}(x+3) + log_{10}(2) = 3[/tex]

Now we put every equation as the exponent of our base 10 looks like this:

[tex]10^{log_{10} (x+3)} + 10^{log_{10} (2)} = 10^{3}[/tex]

Now we cancel out the log base 10 and the 10. We are left with:

(x+3) + (2) = 10^3

Lastly solve for x

x + 5 = 1000

x = 995
