A laboratory vessel contains a liquid solution consisting of water and ethanol, where water makes up $\frac{3}{8}$ of the total volume. First, $\frac{1}{5}$ of the total volume of the solution is drained and replaced with an equal volume of pure ethanol. Next, $\frac{1}{4}$ of the resulting mixture is evaporated, removing water and ethanol in proportion to their presence. Finally, pure water is added to fill the vessel back to its original total volume. What fraction of the final solution is water? Express your answer as a decimal.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.475

Cevap

The fraction of the final solution that is water is 0.475 (or 19/40).

By following the multi-step fractional changes to the liquid volume, the remaining water prior to refilling is

\frac{9}{40}

of the original capacity. Refilling the missing

\frac{1}{4}

(or

\frac{10}{40}

) volume with pure water yields

\frac{19}{40} = 0.475

of the total solution as water.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Track water content after the initial replacement.

Water fraction becomes

\frac{3}{10}

of the original volume.

Let the original total volume be

V

. Initially, water volume is

\frac{3}{8}V

. Removing

\frac{1}{5}

of the solution leaves

\frac{4}{5}

of the original solution, so the water volume becomes

\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{3}{8}V = \frac{3}{10}V

. Replacing the removed volume with pure ethanol brings total volume back to

V

, with water occupying

\frac{3}{10}V

.

2

Track water content after evaporation.

Water volume becomes

\frac{9}{40}V

and total solution volume becomes

\frac{3}{4}V

.

Evaporating

\frac{1}{4}

of the solution leaves

\frac{3}{4}

of the mixture intact. The remaining water volume is

\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{3}{10}V = \frac{9}{40}V

.

3

Calculate the final water fraction after refilling with pure water.

Final water volume is

\frac{19}{40}V = 0.475V

.

To restore the total volume from

\frac{3}{4}V

back to

V

, an amount equal to

V - \frac{3}{4}V = \frac{1}{4}V

of pure water is added. Adding this to the existing water gives

\frac{9}{40}V + \frac{1}{4}V = \frac{9}{40}V + \frac{10}{40}V = \frac{19}{40}V

. Dividing by total volume

V

yields

\frac{19}{40} = 0.475

.

36 minutes

The time interval between simultaneous chimes is given by the least common multiple (LCM) of the two individual intervals,

12

minutes and

18

minutes. Using prime factorization,

12 = 2^2 \times 3

and

18 = 2 \times 3^2

. The LCM takes the highest power of each prime present:

2^2 \times 3^2 = 4 \times 9 = 36

In a manufacturing facility, three automated machines—Machine A, Machine B, and Machine C—produce components at constant individual rates. Machine A working alone completes $\frac{3}{10}$ of a standard daily order in $3$ hours. Machine B working alone completes $\frac{2}{5}$ of the order in $6$ hours. Machine C working alone completes $\frac{1}{4}$ of the order in $5$ hours.

Initially, all three machines work together for $3$ hours. At the end of $3$ hours, Machine A malfunctions and stops, while Machines B and C continue working together without interruption until the daily order is finished. How many total hours does it take from the start to complete the entire daily order?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The total time required from the start to complete the entire daily order is 6 hours.

Each machine's rate per hour is found by dividing the given fraction by hours: Machine A is

\frac{1}{10}

, B is

\frac{1}{15}

, and C is

\frac{1}{20}

. Summing these gives an initial combined rate of

\frac{13}{60}

per hour. In the first 3 hours, the three machines complete

3 \times \frac{13}{60} = \frac{13}{20}

of the order, leaving

1 - \frac{13}{20} = \frac{7}{20}

of the order remaining. When Machine A stops, the remaining combined rate of B and C is

\frac{1}{15} + \frac{1}{20} = \frac{7}{60}

per hour. Dividing the remaining

\frac{7}{20}

by

\frac{7}{60}

yields 3 additional hours. Adding the initial 3 hours gives a total duration of 6 hours.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine individual hourly work rates for each machine.

Machine A rate =

\frac{1}{10}

order/hr, Machine B rate =

\frac{1}{15}

order/hr, Machine C rate =

\frac{1}{20}

order/hr.

Divide the fraction of the job completed by the duration in hours to find the unit rate for each machine.

2

Calculate the combined rate of all three machines and the fraction completed in the first 3 hours.

Combined rate =

\frac{13}{60}

order/hr; Work completed in 3 hours =

\frac{13}{20}

, leaving

\frac{7}{20}

of the order unfinished.

Sum the three rates using a common denominator of 60, then multiply by 3 hours to find the total work done during the first stage.

3

Calculate the combined rate of Machines B and C, and find the additional time required to complete the remaining fraction.

Combined rate of B and C =

\frac{7}{60}

order/hr; Additional time needed = 3 hours.

Divide the remaining fraction

\frac{7}{20}

by the combined rate

\frac{7}{60}

to determine the remaining hours needed.

4

Add the initial duration and additional duration to obtain the total time.

Total time =

In a community library, $\frac{4}{15}$ of the total book collection consists of fiction books, $\frac{2}{5}$ consists of non-fiction books, and the remaining 240 books are children's books. If $\frac{3}{8}$ of the fiction books are hardcovers and the rest are softcovers, how many softcover fiction books are in the library?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 120

Cevap

The total number of softcover fiction books in the library is 120.

To find the number of softcover fiction books, first calculate the total number of books in the library. The combined fraction of fiction and non-fiction books is

\frac{4}{15} + \frac{2}{5} = \frac{4}{15} + \frac{6}{15} = \frac{10}{15} = \frac{2}{3}

. Therefore, children's books represent the remaining

1 - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{3}

of the collection. Since

\frac{1}{3}

of the total equals 240 books, the total collection is

240 \times 3 = 720

books. Next, compute the total number of fiction books:

\frac{4}{15} \times 720 = 192

. Finally, since

\frac{3}{8}

of fiction books are hardcovers, the remaining fraction of softcovers is

1 - \frac{3}{8} = \frac{5}{8}

. Multiplying

\frac{5}{8} \times 192

gives 120 softcover fiction books.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the combined fraction of fiction and non-fiction books, then determine the fraction of children's books.

Combined fraction =

\frac{4}{15} + \frac{6}{15} = \frac{10}{15} = \frac{2}{3}

. Children's books fraction =

1 - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{3}

.

The sum of all non-overlapping fractions comprising the entire collection must equal 1.

2

Calculate the total number of books in the library.

Total collection =

240 \div \frac{1}{3} = 720

books.

The 240 children's books represent exactly

\frac{1}{3}

of the whole collection.

3

Determine the total count of fiction books.

Fiction books =

\frac{4}{15} \times 720 = 192

books.

Fiction books make up

\frac{4}{15}

of the total 720 books.

4

Calculate the number of softcover fiction books.

Softcover fiction books =

\left(1 - \frac{3}{8}\right) \times 192 = \frac{5}{8} \times 192 = 120

books.

If

Prime factorizing

\text{GCD}(a,b) = 180 = 2^2 \times 3^2 \times 5^1

\text{LCM}(a,b) = 54,000 = 2^4 \times 3^3 \times 5^3

reveals that the pair of exponents for bases

2, 3, 5

are

\{2, 4\}

\{2, 3\}

, and

\{1, 3\}

respectively. Applying the total divisor formula

(x+1)(y+1)(z+1) = 24

for

a

x+1

must divide

24

. Since

x \in \{2, 4\}

x

(y+1)(z+1) = 8

. With

y \in \{2, 3\}

,

y+1

must be

4

Factorize GCD and LCM into prime bases.

GCD = 2^2 * 3^2 * 5^1; LCM = 2^4 * 3^3 * 5^3.

GCD represents the minimum prime exponents and LCM represents the maximum prime exponents of a and b.

2

Set up candidate exponent pairs for primes 2, 3, and 5.

{x, u} = {2, 4}, {y, v} = {2, 3}, and {z, w} = {1, 3}.

For any prime p, min(exp_p(a), exp_p(b)) = exp_p(GCD) and max(exp_p(a), exp_p(b)) = exp_p(LCM).

Solve for x, y, and z using the divisor count formula d(a) = (x+1)(y+1)(z+1) = 24.

x = 2, y = 3, z = 1.

If x = 4, then x+1 = 5, which is not a factor of 24. Thus x = 2. Then (y+1)(z+1) = 8. Since y in {2, 3}, y+1 = 4 implies y = 3 and z = 1.

Determine the exponents of b and calculate b.

u = 4, v = 2, w = 3, so b = 2^4 * 3^2 * 5^3 = 18,000.

Complementary values from the sets {x,u}, {y,v}, and {z,w} give the exponents for b.

and

\{2, 3, 7\}

. Using

\{2, 3, 7\}

produces smaller candidates. Because

N

is not divisible by 4, the exponent of 2 must be 1. The total divisor condition

(1+1)(b+1)(c+1) = 12

(b+1)(c+1) = 6

, giving exponent pairs

(1, 2)

or

(2, 1)

for bases 3 and 7. Assigning the exponent 2 to 3 and 1 to 7 minimizes

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find all sets of distinct prime factors that sum to 12.

The possible sets of distinct prime factors are

\{5, 7\}

and

\{2, 3, 7\}

.

Testing combinations of prime numbers (

2, 3, 5, 7, 11, \dots

):

5 + 7 = 12

and

2 + 3 + 7 = 12

are the only valid sets of distinct primes summing to 12.

2

Analyze the set of prime factors

\{2, 3, 7\}

under the condition that

N

is not divisible by 4.

The prime factorization is

N = 2^a \cdot 3^b \cdot 7^c

, where

a = 1

.

Since 2 is a prime factor of

N

,

a \ge 1

. Because

N

is not divisible by 4 (

2^2

),

a

must be strictly less than 2. Thus,

a = 1

.

3

Determine the exponents

b

and

c

using the total number of positive divisors.

The number of divisors is

(1+1)(b+1)(c+1) = 12

, which simplifies to

(b+1)(c+1) = 6

. The possible integer pairs

(b, c)

for

b, c \ge 1

are

(1, 2)

and

(2, 1)

.

The divisor count formula for

N = p_1^{e_1} p_2^{e_2} \dots p_k^{e_k}

is

(e_1+1)(e_2+1)\dots(e_k+1) = 12

.

4

Calculate values of

N

for these exponent pairs.

For

(b, c) = (1, 2)

,

N = 2^1 \cdot 3^1 \cdot 7^2 = 294

. For

(b, c) = (2, 1)

,

N = 2^1 \cdot 3^2 \cdot 7^1 = 126

.

To make

N

as small as possible, assign the larger exponent to the smaller prime base (

3^2 \cdot 7^1 < 3^1 \cdot 7^2

).

5

Compare with candidate values from the alternative set of prime factors

\{5, 7\}

.

For

\{5, 7\}

,

N = 5^3 \cdot 7^2 = 6125

or

5^5 \cdot 7^1 = 21875

, both of which are much larger than 126.

The combination

(a+1)(b+1) = 12

yields exponents of 3 and 2 (or 5 and 1), resulting in much higher prime powers.

A high-precision instrument measures the mass of a single micro-particle $P$ as $4.8 \times 10^{-8}$ grams and a single micro-particle $Q$ as $8.0 \times 10^{-9}$ grams. A sample consists of a combination of $P$ and $Q$ particles in a ratio of $3$ particles of $P$ for every $5$ particles of $Q$ . If the total mass of the sample is $9.2 \times 10^{-5}$ grams, what is the total number of particles in the sample?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4000

Cevap

The total number of particles in the sample is 4,000.

Aligning powers of 10 shows that one P particle weighs

4.8 \times 10^{-8}

g and one Q particle weighs

0.8 \times 10^{-8}

g. A combined unit of 3 P particles and 5 Q particles has a mass of

3(4.8 \times 10^{-8}) + 5(0.8 \times 10^{-8}) = 18.4 \times 10^{-8} = 1.84 \times 10^{-7}

g. Dividing the total sample mass of

9.2 \times 10^{-5}

g by

1.84 \times 10^{-7}

g yields 500 units. Since each unit contains 8 particles (3 + 5), the total number of particles is

500 \times 8 = 4,000

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the mass of particle Q so that it shares the same exponent (

10^{-8}

) as particle P.

Mass of single particle Q =

0.8 \times 10^{-8}

grams.

Aligning powers of 10 is necessary before performing addition of masses.

2

Find the combined mass of a fundamental ratio group consisting of 3 particles of P and 5 particles of Q.

Mass of one ratio group =

3(4.8 \times 10^{-8}) + 5(0.8 \times 10^{-8}) = 14.4 \times 10^{-8} + 4.0 \times 10^{-8} = 18.4 \times 10^{-8} = 1.84 \times 10^{-7}

grams.

Determines the mass contributed by each set of 8 particles.

3

Divide the total mass of the sample by the mass of a single ratio group.

Number of groups =

\frac{9.2 \times 10^{-5}}{1.84 \times 10^{-7}} = \frac{9.2}{1.84} \times 10^2 = 5 \times 10^2 = 500

groups.

Determines how many full ratio sets of particles make up the sample.

4

Multiply the number of groups by the total number of particles contained in each group (

3 + 5 = 8

).

Total particles =

500 \times 8 = 4000

.

Yields the total count of individual particles in the sample.

If $x$ is a real number that satisfies the equation $\sqrt{x + 6\sqrt{x - 9}} + \sqrt{x - 6\sqrt{x - 9}} = 10$ , what is the value of $x$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 34

Cevap

34

Using the substitution

u = \sqrt{x - 9} \ge 0

, we have

x = u^2 + 9

. The expressions under the square roots become

x + 6\sqrt{x - 9} = u^2 + 6u + 9 = (u + 3)^2

and

x - 6\sqrt{x - 9} = u^2 - 6u + 9 = (u - 3)^2

. Taking square roots gives

\sqrt{(u + 3)^2} + \sqrt{(u - 3)^2} = (u + 3) + |u - 3| = 10

. For

u \ge 3

, this simplifies to

(u + 3) + (u - 3) = 10 \implies 2u = 10 \implies u = 5

. Finally, substituting

u = 5

back yields

x = 5^2 + 9 = 34

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define a variable substitution to simplify the nested radical structure.

Let

u = \sqrt{x - 9}

where

u \ge 0

. Squaring both sides gives

u^2 = x - 9

, so

x = u^2 + 9

.

This substitution allows the expressions inside the outer square roots to be rewritten as polynomials in terms of

u

.

2

Rewrite the expressions under each square root as perfect square trinomials.

x + 6\sqrt{x - 9} = (u^2 + 9) + 6u = (u + 3)^2

and

x - 6\sqrt{x - 9} = (u^2 + 9) - 6u = (u - 3)^2

.

Expressing terms as perfect squares allows the outer radicals to be simplified.

3

Simplify the square root expressions using absolute values.

\sqrt{(u + 3)^2} + \sqrt{(u - 3)^2} = (u + 3) + |u - 3| = 10

.

For any real number

a

,

\sqrt{a^2} = |a|

. Since

u \ge 0

,

u + 3 > 0

, so

|u + 3| = u + 3

.

4

Solve the absolute value equation across valid domain intervals.

If

u \ge 3

,

|u - 3| = u - 3

, giving

(u + 3) + (u - 3) = 10 \implies 2u = 10 \implies u = 5

. If

0 \le u < 3

,

|u - 3| = 3 - u

, giving

(u + 3) + (3 - u) = 6 \neq 10

(no solution). Thus,

u = 5

.

Splitting into cases based on the definition of absolute value isolates the valid root.

5

Substitute

u = 5

back into the expression for

x

.

x = 5^2 + 9 = 25 + 9 = 34

.

Converting from

u

back to

x

provides the solution to the original equation.

An absolute value inequality of the form

|u| \le a

for

A coffee shop owner creates a $30$ -pound blend of coffee by mixing Bean X, which costs $\$8$ per pound, with Bean Y, which costs $\$14$ per pound. If the final mixture costs $\$10$ per pound, how many pounds of Bean X are in the mixture?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 20

Cevap

The mixture contains 20 pounds of Bean X.

The quantity of Bean X required is 20 pounds. Setting up the cost equation

8x + 14(30 - x) = 300

simplifies to

-6x = -120

, giving

x = 20

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define the unknown variables representing the quantities of each component.

Let

x

be the weight of Bean X in pounds. The weight of Bean Y is

(30 - x)

pounds.

Since the total weight of the mixture is 30 pounds, expressing Bean Y in terms of

x

creates a single-variable system.

2

Set up a linear equation based on total financial value.

8x + 14(30 - x) = 10 \times 30

The total cost of Bean X plus the total cost of Bean Y equals the total cost of the combined 30-pound mixture.

3

Solve the algebraic equation for

x

.

8x + 420 - 14x = 300 \implies -6x = -120 \implies x = 20

Combining like terms isolates the variable

x

to yield the required quantity of Bean X.

The sector formed by this arc in Circle $C_1$ has an area of $54\pi$ , and the sector formed by this arc in Circle $C_2$ has an area of $36\pi$ . If $\theta_1 + \theta_2 = 150$ , what is the value of $r_1$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 18

Cevap

The radius

r_1

of Circle

C_1

is 18.

Using the relationship

A = \frac{1}{2} L r

, the ratio of the two sector areas gives

\frac{r_1}{r_2} = \frac{54\pi}{36\pi} = 1.5

, so

r_2 = \frac{2}{3} r_1

. Expressing arc length as

L = \frac{108\pi}{r_1}

, the central angles are

\theta_1 = \frac{19440}{r_1^2}

and

\theta_2 = \frac{29160}{r_1^2}

. Setting their sum equal to

150

leads to

\frac{48600}{r_1^2} = 150

, giving

r_1^2 = 324

and

r_1 = 18

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Relate sector area to arc length and radius

A_1 = \frac{1}{2} L r_1 = 54\pi

and

A_2 = \frac{1}{2} L r_2 = 36\pi

The area of a sector with arc length

L

and radius

r

is given by

A = \frac{\theta}{360}\pi r^2 = \frac{1}{2} L r

.

2

Find the ratio of

r_1

to

r_2

\frac{r_1}{r_2} = \frac{54\pi}{36\pi} = \frac{3}{2} \implies r_2 = \frac{2}{3}r_1

Dividing the first area equation by the second cancels out

\frac{1}{2}L

.

3

Express central angles in terms of

r_1

\theta_1 = \frac{19440}{r_1^2}

and

\theta_2 = \frac{29160}{r_1^2}

Since

L = \frac{108\pi}{r_1}

, substituting into

\theta_1 = \frac{L}{2\pi r_1} \times 360

yields

\theta_1 = \frac{19440}{r_1^2}

, and substituting into

\theta_2 = \frac{L}{2\pi (\frac{2}{3}r_1)} \times 360

yields

\theta_2 = \frac{29160}{r_1^2}

.

4

Solve for

r_1

using the angle sum equation

r_1 = 18

Summing the angles gives

\frac{19440 + 29160}{r_1^2} = \frac{48600}{r_1^2} = 150 \implies r_1^2 = 324 \implies r_1 = 18

The maximum possible value of

|3x - 4y|

34

.

To find the maximum possible value of

|3x - 4y|

, we first solve for the ranges of

x

and

y

from their respective absolute value inequalities. From

|3 - 2x| \le 9

-9 \le 3 - 2x \le 9 \implies -3 \le x \le 6

. From

|4y + 3| \le 13

, we get

-13 \le 4y + 3 \le 13 \implies -4 \le y \le 2.5

. To maximize

3x - 4y

, we take the maximum value of

3x

(

3 \times 6 = 18

) and the maximum value of

-4y

(

-4 \times -4 = 16

), giving

18 + 16 = 34

. To minimize

3x - 4y

, we take the minimum value of

3x

(

3 \times -3 = -9

) and the minimum value of

-4y

(

-4 \times 2.5 = -10

), giving

-9 - 10 = -19

. The expression

3x - 4y

ranges from

-19

to

34

|3x - 4y|

is
