Given that amount of first acid solution = 4 liters

Let concentration of the first acid solution = x

then effective amount of first solution = 4x


Given that amount of second  acid solution = 10 liters

Givn that concentration of the second acid solution = 40% = 0.4

then effective amount of second solution = 0.4(10)


Then amount of resulting acid solution = (4+10) liters

Givn that concentration of the resulting acid solution = 30% = 0.3

then effective amount of resulting solution = 0.3(4+10)


Combining all those results gives equation

4x +0.4(10) = 0.3(4+10)

4x +4 = 0.3(14)

4x +4 = 4.2

4x = 0.2

x=0.05


Hence final answer is 0.05 or you can say 5%.

You do not need to flip the inequality sign when solving the inequality -3t + 7 ≥ 9. True False
nordsb [41]
Hello!

It is False because t is multiplied by a negative number, so to solve for it you will need to divide both sides by -3 which mean you have to flip the sign. 

Hope this helps!

The sum of two consecutive even integers is -22, what are the two numbers?
Marina CMI [18]

If both numbers were the same, they would be  -11  and  -11 .

Take '1' away from one of them and give it to the other one.

You haven't changed their sum, but now they're<em>  -12</em>  and  <em>-10 </em>.
