2ml of a serum sample was added to 18ml of phosphate buffered saline (pbs) in tube 1. 10ml of tube 1 was added to 40ml of pbs in tube 2. what is the dilution of serum in tube 2? 3. four tubes were placed in a rack. to all four tubes, 9ml of pbs buffer was added. iml of a protein lysate was added to the first tube and mixed well. iml of the first tube is transferred to the second tube and again mixed. the transfer of 1ml from one tube to each subsequent tube continues until 1ml is discarded from the last tube. what is the dilution of protein lysate in the fourth tube?

sorry i just need to anwers this to get points

step-by-step explanation:

< xcy ≅ < xby

step-by-step explanation:

in δcax and δbax,

so, δcax ≅ δbax (side-angle-side or sas)

since δcax ≅ δbax, we can conclude < acx ≅ < abx

in δacy and δaby,

so, δacy ≅ δaby (side-angle-side or sas)

since δacy ≅ δaby, we can conclude < acy ≅ < aby

now,

< acy ≅ < aby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < abx + < xby

=> < acx + < xcy ≅ < acx + < xby   (since < acx ≅ < abx already proved above)

subtracting < acx from both sides, we get

< acx + < xcy -< acx ≅ < acx + < xby -< acx

cancelling out < acx and -< acx from both sides, we get

< xcy ≅ < xby (proved)
