Answer:

30 gallons of 20% acid solution should be mixed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x gallons of a 20% acid solution was mixed with 30 gallons of a 40% solution, to obtain a mixture of 30% acid solution.

Therefore, final volume of the solution will be (x + 30) gallons.

Now concept to solve this question is

20%.(x) + 40%.(30) = 30%.(x + 30)

0.20(x) + 0.40(30) = 0.30(x + 30)

0.20x + 12 = 0.30x + 9

0.30x - 0.20x = 12 - 9

.10x = 3

x = \frac{3}{0.1}

x = 30 gallons

Therefore, 30 gallons of the 20% acid solution should be mixed.

Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right angle. This means that the square to the bottom right is 90 degrees. There is also an angle that is 124, but that is a linear pair to the angle on the inside. This means that 124+__=180 degrees

180-124= 56

So now we know 2 angles, which are 90 degrees and 56 degrees. Because we know that the sum of the angles of a triangle equal 180 degrees, we can subtract 90 and 56 from 180 to get our answer, 34.

find the least perfect square that is exactly divisible by each of the numbers 5 , 18 , 25 and 27 . ​
Dimas [21]
<h3>☂︎ Answer :- </h3>

  • 8100
<h3>☂︎ Solution :- </h3>

  • LCM of 5 , 18 , 25 and 27 = 2 × 3³ × 5²
  • 2 and 3 have odd powers . To get a perfect square, we need to make the powers of 2 and 3 even . The powers of 5 is already even .

In other words , the LCM of 5 , 18 , 25 and 27 can be made a perfect square if it is multiplied by 2 × 3 .

The least perfect square greater that the LCM ,

☞︎︎︎ 2 × 3³ × 5² × 2 × 3

☞︎︎︎ 2² × 3⁴ × 5²

☞︎︎︎ 4 × 81 × 85

☞︎︎︎ 100 × 81

☞︎︎︎ 8100

8100 is the least perfect square which is exactly divisible by each of the numbers 5 , 18 , 25 , 27 .
