For this kind of problems, first find the method to solve, then face the fractions.
If I jog 100 miles in a year, and I do 2 miles a day. How many days did I jog?
We know easily that it is 100 days/ 2 miles/day = 50 days.
So the number of days is total distance / how much a day, or
(6 1/2) divided by (1/6)
Answer:
To find y intercept x should be 0.
And in this.
Y=4x.3x
Y=4*0*3*0
Y=0 answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For mixture problems, it is convenient to define a variable to represent the amount of the greatest contributor. Let x represent the amount of 22% solution in the mix. Then 4.8-x is the amount of 10% solution.
The amount of alcohol in the mix is ...
0.22x +0.10(4.8-x) = 0.12(4.8)
Eliminating parentheses, we have ...
0.22x -0.10x +0.10(4.8) = 0.12(4.8)
Subtracting (0.10)(4.8) and combining x-terms gives ...
0.12x = 0.02(4.8)
x = (0.02/0.12)(4.8) = 0.8 . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient
The scientist needs 0.8 L of 22% solution and 4.0 L of 10% solution.
