Answer:
100 liters of 10% solution is used and 20 liters of 40% solution is used
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "X" amount of 10% solution is used. Then the amount of 40% solution used is equal to 120-X
Now
10% of X + 40% of (120-X) = 15% of 120
On solving the above equation, we get
liters
Amount of 40% solution used = 120 -X = 120-100 = 20 liters
100 liters of 10% solution is used and 20 liters of 40% solution is used
Answer:
Great job!
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 2,359,412; 2,937,158; 3,356,000; 3,368,742

16. There are 3 right triangles, 3 Pythagorean theorem equations
x²+b²= 16²
12²+a² = x²
a²+4² = b²
combine equations using substitution to get in terms of only x
substitute b² for (a² +x²) in first equation
x²+a²+4²=16²
substitute a² for (x² - 12²)
x²+x²-12²+4² = 16²
solve for x
2x² - 144 + 16 = 256
2x² = 256 + 144 - 16
2x² = 384
x² = 384/2
x² = 192
x = 13.85
rounded to nearest tenth, x = 13.9
You would have no problem at all if it said "7 cows minus 2 cows", or "7 books minus 2 books". The THINGS just happen to be m's instead of cows or books.
