Answer:

100% vinegar=20 ml

12 % vinegar=140 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

100 % x+12 %(160-x)=23 % of 160

x+0.12(160-x)=0.23*160

x+19.20-0.12 x=36.80

0.88 x=36.80-19.20

0.88 x=17.60

88 x=1760

x=20

Can two positive integers have their H.C.F and L.C.M as 12 and 512 respectively? justify.
DaniilM [7]

Here is your answer

NO

Reason:

H.C.F. divides the L.C.M. completely.

Here 512 is not completely divided by 12

So, two numbers can't have their H.C.F and L.C.M as 12 and 512 respectively.

Answer:

For a trapezium of height H, parallel side 1 X, and parallel side 2 Y, the area is:

A = (1/2)*H*(X + Y)

with this we can complete the table.

a)

Here we know:

X = 7cm

Y = 11cm

H = 6cm

Then: A = (1/2)*6cm*(7cm + 11cm) = 54 cm^2

b)

Here we know:

X = 8 m

Y = 10 m

A = 126 m^2

Then:

126 m^2 = 0.5*H*(8m + 10m)

126 m^2 = H*9m

126 m^2/9m = H = 14m

Then the height of this trapezoid is 14m

c)

Here we know:

X = 5mm

H = 8mm

A = 72 mm^2

Then:

72 mm^2 = 0.5*8mm*(5mm + Y)

72 mm^2 = 4mm*(5mm + Y)

72mm^2/4mm = 5mm + Y

18 mm = 5mm + Y

18mm - 5mm = Y

13 mm = Y

Then the parallel side 2 is 13 mm long.
