The sentence "Four times the sum of a number and 17 is at least −26" translated to an inequality is 4(x+17) ≥ -26

<h3>Translating sentences into inequality </h3>

From the question, we are to translate the given sentence into an equality.

The given sentence is

Four times the sum of a number and 17 is at least −26

Let the unknown number be x

Then,

The sum of a number and 17 will be

x + 17

Then,

Four times the sum of a number and 17 can be written as  

4(x+17)

Now,

"At least -26" means it is greater than or equal to -26

Thus,

Four times the sum of a number and 17 is at least −26 becomes

4(x+17) ≥ -26

Hence, the sentence "Four times the sum of a number and 17 is at least −26" translated to an inequality is 4(x+17) ≥ -26.

Rajan needs 1 liter of 15% hydrochloric acid solution for an experiment. He checks his storage cabinet, but he only has a 5-lite
yarga [219]

Answer:

<em>Rajan must use </em><em>0.75</em><em> liters of 5% hydrochloric acid solution and </em><em>0.25</em><em> liters of 45% hydrochloric acid solution.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that, x liters of the 5% hydrochloric acid and y liters of the 45% hydrochloric acid solutions are combined.

As Rajan need total of 1 liter of solution, so

x+y=1

i.e x=1-y --------------------1

As Rajan needs 5% hydrochloric acid and 45% hydrochloric acid to make a 1 liter batch of 15% hydrochloric acid, hence acid content of the mixture of two acids will be same as of the final one, so

0.05x+0.45y=1\times 0.15

i.e 5x+45y=15 -------------2

Putting value of x from equation 1 in equation 2,

\Rightarrow 5(1-y)+45y=15

\Rightarrow 5-5y+45y=15

\Rightarrow 5+40y=15

\Rightarrow 40y=15-5=10

\Rightarrow y=0.25

Putting the value of y in equation 1,

x=1-0.25=0.75

Therefore, Rajan must use 0.75 liters of 5% hydrochloric acid solution and 0.25 liters of 45% hydrochloric acid solution.

The percent of increase is then
(1.242865-1)*100\%=0.242865*100\%=24.2865\%
