You must work about 62 hours.

The total percent that you pay in taxes is 24.9%.

That means that you keep 75.1% of the money that you earn. We can write the following equation to determine the number of hours, h, that it will take to earn 493.68.

0.751(10.65)h = 493.68

Just divide by 0.751 and 10.65 and you will get the number of hours needed.

A pharmacist has a 12% solution and a 20% solution of boric acid. How much of each should she use to make 80 grams of a 15% solu
nlexa [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80

Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.

We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.

We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.

x = 80 - y

.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12

9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12

.08y = 2.4

y = 30

x = 80 - 30 = 50
