a = amount (in oz) of solution A
b = amount of solution B
The scientist wants a mixture of 110 oz, so
a + b = 110
Solution A consists of 65% salt, so each ounce of solution A contributes 0.65 oz of salt; similarly, each ounce of B contributes 0.9 oz. The mixture is supposed to consist of 75% salt, which amounts to 0.75 * (110 oz) = 82.5 oz of salt. So
0.65 a + 0.9 b = 82.5
Solve for a and b:
b = 110 - a
0.65 a + 0.9 (110 - a) = 82.5
0.65 a + 99 - 0.9 a = 82.5
0.25 a = 16.5
a = 66 ==> b = 44
Answer: 200°C + 273.15 = 473.15K
300K − 273.15 = 26.85°C
I hope this helps bye
The answer would be 5x10^4
Answer:
(2x - 3) • (x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Equation at step 1 :
(2x2 + 5x) - 12
Step 2 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 2x2+5x-12
The first term is, 2x2 its coefficient is 2 .
The middle term is, +5x its coefficient is 5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -12
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • -12 = -24
Step-2 : Find two factors of -24 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 5 .
-24 + 1 = -23
-12 + 2 = -10
-8 + 3 = -5
-6 + 4 = -2
-4 + 6 = 2
-3 + 8 = 5
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -3 and 8
2x2 - 3x + 8x - 12
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (2x-3)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
4 • (2x-3)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(x+4) • (2x-3)
Which is the desired factorization
