Answer:
50 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the volume of 20% acid, then:
x (0.20) + 20 (0.45) = (x + 20) (0.30)
0.2x + 9 = 0.3x + 6
3 = 0.1x
x = 30
30 liters of 20% acid are needed, so there will be a total of 50 liters of 30% acid.
yes, you are correct. every input corresponds to only one output
You can't tell. The volume doesn't tell you the dimensions. It only tells you
what the product of the three dimensions is, but not what anyone of them is.
There are an infinite number of different possibilities.
Example: Volume = 8 cubic feet
The dimensions of the box could be
Length = 2-ft, Width = 2-ft, Height = 2-ft
or
1 x 1 x 8
or
1 x 2 x 4
or
1 x 3 x 2-2/3
or
1 x 5 x 1.6
or
1 x 6 x 1-1/3
or
1 x 7 x 1-1/7
or
2 x 3 x 1-1/3
or
2 x 5 x 0.8
or
2 x 6 x 2/3
or
2 x 7 x 4/7
or
2 x 8 x 1/2

etc.
