The new mixture has a total volume of 5 L + 9 L = 14 L.
70% of the 5 L alcohol solution is alcohol, so that it contributed 3.5 L of alcohol to the mixture. The pure water contributed no alcohol. So in the mixture, the concentration of alcohol is
3.5 L / 14 L = 0.25, or 25%
If I am not wrong it is 1375 sorry if I it wrong I trued
Answer:
the slope is -2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
you do y2-y1 on top of the division sign and x2-x1 on the bottom.
Answer:
I think the answer is B I guessed it.
Set up your two equations:
<span>9x+7y=53 </span>
<span>3x+5y=25 </span>
<span>X=cost per pound of jelly bean </span>
<span>Y=cost per pound of trail mix </span>
<span>Multiply the second equation by (-3): </span>
<span>-9x-15y=-75 </span>
<span>+ 9x+7y=53 <---- copy first equation and add them </span>
<span>—————— </span>
<span>0x-8y=-22 </span>
<span>Then solve for y: </span>
<span>Y=2.76 this is your cost per pound of trail mix. </span>
<span>Then plug y back in to one of the original equations and solve for x: </span>
<span>3x+7(2.75)=25 </span>
<span>X=3.75 this is you cost per pound of jelly beans</span>
