A 20-gallon bathtub is to be filled with water that is exactly 100°F. The hot water supply is 175°F and the cold water supply is 20°F. When mixed, the temperature will be a weighted average based on the amount of each water source in the mix. How much of each should be used to fill the tub as specified?

Answers

Answer 1

320/31 gallons of hot water and 300/31 gallons of cold water are needed.

Here we are required to fill a 20-gallon bathtub and the water should be precisely 100° F.

It is given that hot water has a temperature of 175° F and cold water has a temperature of 20° F.

Let the amount of hot water used be x gallons.

Let the amount of cold water used be y gallons.

Since the bathtub has a capacity of 20 gallons,

x + y = 20                                                                                  [1]

or, y = 20 - x                                                                             [2]

The temperature after the water is mixed will be a weighted average of the temperature and amt of water used.

Hence we get,

(175x + 20y) / (x + y) = 100

from equation [1] we get

175x + 20y = 2000                                                                   [3]

from equations [2] and [3] we get

155x - 400 = 2000

or, x = 1600/155 = 320/31                                                        [4]

Similarly,

y = 20 - 320/31

= 300/31

Hence 320/31 gallons of hot water and 300/31 gallons of cold water are needed.

Answers

The shorter side should be 200 ft and the longer side should be 200 ft. This would give the garden the greatest possible area of 40,000 square-feet.

1. The area of a rectangle can be calculated by multiplying the length and width together.

A = L * W

2. We know that the total amount of fencing is 400 ft.

3. We also know that one side of the garden is a river and so it doesn't require fencing.

4. Therefore, the remaining fencing must be divided equally between the two other sides of the garden (200 ft per side).

5. We now know that the length and width of the garden are both 200 ft.

6. Plugging these values into the area equation, we get:

A = 200 ft * 200 ft = 40,000 sqft

7. Therefore, the greatest possible area of the garden is 40,000 square-feet..

What is a triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. A closed shape consisting of three straight lines and three corners. The sum of the three angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees. Triangles come in a variety of shapes and sizes and can be classified according to their angles and sides. The most common type of triangle is the right triangle, which has 90 degree angles.

Translation is the transformation that happens when we move the image without changing anything in it. Therefore, the shape, size, and orientation remain the same.

In this case the triangle ABC has been transformed to A'B'C'. This means that the triangle has been moved in one direction to form a new triangle A'B'C' without changing its size or orientation. This is an example of translation transformation.

1. Set up two equations equal to one another like 15 + 5x = 25 + 5x to find out if you'll have the same savings as your friend.

2. Subtract 15 on both sides to get 5x by itself. This should leave you with 5x = 10 + 5x.

(c) What is the difference in the volumes of the two boxes?
(d)
Which units should be used for each of these answers?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

w(idth) = 2.5 inches for both boxes

h(eight) = 10 inches for both boxes

l(ength)l(arge) = 8 inches

l(ength)s(mall) = 75% of ll (=> of 8 inches)

=> ls = 8 × 75/100 = 2 × 75/25 = 2 × 3 = 6 inches

vl (volume large) = 8 × 2.5 × 10 = 200 inches³

vs (volume small) = 6 × 2.5 × 10 = 150 inches³

the difference of these two volumes is 50 inches³

the units to be used is cubic inches (inches³). we are talking about volumes. not lengths (inches), not areas (inches²).

the reason - for a volume we need to multiply 3 lengths (measured in simple inches). so, inch multiplied by inch is inch². this multiplied by inch again is then inch³.

Which variation is represented by this situation:
A building that is 6 stories tall has a shadow that is 22 meters long.
How many stories tall is a building with a shadow that is 40 meters
long? Is it inverse variation or direct variation?

Answers

When a building is 40 meters long in shadow cast by another building of the same height, there are 10 levels there.

what is direct variation ?

equation that can be used to explain the mathematical relationship between two variables, where one variable is equal to a constant multiplied by the other. A direct variation's (proportional relationship's) graph is a straight line that pierces the origin. On a graph of direct variation, the graph will always pass through (1, k), where k is the proportionality constant. Direct variation refers to a change in one quantity that directly affects the other. The complete opposite of this is inverse variation.

The equation that describes this variation is:

h =kx

1st Data                                                            2nd Data

s=22 m                                                                    s  = 40 m

h=6 stories                                                               h = find 2nd

k=find 1st                                                                  k = 0.27 story/m

Find k:                                                                       Find h :

h=kx                                                                           h = kx

6 stories=k(22 m)                                                 h = ( 0.27 story/m ) ( 40 m)                                                                                                                                                                                                

k=6 stories/22 m                                                           h = 10    stories

What is log and example?

Answers

Logs are a type of mathematical operation used to solve exponential equations.

Logs are written as log boxes, where b is the base. The base is the number that the logarithm is being calculated concerning. The x is the number that the logarithm is calculated. Logarithms allow us to convert multiplication and division problems into addition and subtraction.

For example, log2 (8) can be calculated by taking the logarithm of 2, which is 0.301029996, and then multiplying it by 8, which is 2.408239965. This means that log2 (8) is equal to 2.408239965.

Another example is log10 (100). This can be calculated by taking the logarithm of 10, which is 1 and then multiplying it by 100, which is 100.

This means that log10 (100) is equal to 100. Logs are an important tool in mathematics and are used in a variety of fields, such as chemistry, engineering, and economics.

A recipe calls for 2 2/3 cups of flour to make two regular batches of cookies. Shiloh needs to make multiple batches of cookies. Represent this situation with an equation. What is the constant of proportionality? How can you identify it in an equation? How can you use an equation to determine if a relationship is proportional?

Answers

This situation can be represented with an equation as y = mx + b. The constant of proportionality (m) is a number that represents how much flour is needed for each additional batch of cookies. If the equation is in the form y = mx + b, then the relationship is proportional.

Shiloh needs to make multiple batches of cookies from a recipe that calls for 2 2/3 cups of flour to make two regular batches. To represent this situation in an equation, the equation is y = mx + b, where y is the amount of flour needed for the number of batches (x) Shiloh is making, m is the constant of proportionality, and b is the initial amount of flour needed (2 2/3 cups).

The constant of proportionality (m) in the situation above is the measure of how much flour is needed for each additional batch of cookies. For example, if the constant of proportionality is 0.75, that means Shiloh would need to add 0.75 cups of flour for each additional batch of cookies.

Therefore, if Shiloh is making three batches of cookies, the equation would be y = 0.75x + 2 2/3, and the total amount of flour needed would be 4 1/8 cups (2 2/3 + 0.75 + 0.75).

By using an equation to represent this situation, it is easy to determine if a relationship is proportional.

If the equation is in the form y = mx + b, then the relationship is proportional.

How do you find the parent function of a line?

Answers

The parent function of a line (usually of the form y = ax + b) is y = x.

The most basic form of a function is a parent function. Its essential shape is not changed in any manner. In mathematics, some graphs are frequently seen. Because of this, the graphs of quadratic functions, square roots, absolute values, cubics, and cube roots are among the original, widespread functions that are referred to as parent graphs.

For instance, you should still be able to identify the parabola that has undergone various transformations when you view a u-shaped graph that has been inverted and stretched vertically.

Linear Function

Linear functions have x as the term with the highest degree and a general form of y = a + bx. All linear functions have a straight line as a graph. The parent function of linear functions is y = x, and it passes through the origin. The domain and range of all linear functions are all real numbers.

These functions represent relationships between two objects that are linearly proportional to each other.

Therefore, the parent function of a line (usually of the form y = ax + b) is y = x.
