Answer:

14yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary’s age=x

5•x = x•7-28

=> 5x-7x= -28

=> -2x= -28

=> x= -28/-2

=> x= 14

setup a simple algebraic equation and solve.

5x = 7x-28

-5x   -5x

0=2x-28

+28  +28

28=2x

Now divide both sides by 2 and you get that she is 14

Respuesta de (-0.5)²
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

(-0.5)^2

we know that

-0.5=-\frac{1}{2}

substitute

(-\frac{1}{2})^2=(-\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})

Remember that

(-1)(-1)=1\\(-1)(1)=(-1)

so

(-\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{4}=0.25

A 13 L solution that was 12% vinegar was mixed with a 9 L solution that was 70% vinegar. What is the concentration of the new mi
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The concentration is simply 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the concentration of a new mixture formed from mixing some liters of each of two vinegar variants of different concentrations.

We proceed as follows;

The concentration of the new solution will contain 12% of 13L vinegar A and 70% of 9L vinegar B

13L of vinegar A will contain 13 * 12% = 13 * 0.12 = 1.56

9L of 70% vinegar B will contain 9 * 70% = 9 * 0.7 = 6.3

Now, the new mixture has a total volume of 13 + 9 = 22L

The concentration of the new mixture will thus be;

(1.56 + 6.3)/22

= 0.357 and that’s approximately 0.36 or simply 36%
