Answer:
He can buy <u>3 bracelets</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Mr. Gonzales has only 42.50 to spend he wants to buy 29 t shirts including tax and some bracelets that cost 4.50 each including tax.
Now, to find the number of bracelets he can buy.
Let the number of bracelets he can buy be
Price of each bracelets = 4.50.
Total amount to spend = 42.50.
Number of t-shirts = 29.
Now, to get the number of bracelets we put an equation:
<em>Subtracting both sides by 29 we get:</em>
<em /><em />
<em>Dividing both sides by 4.50 we get:</em>
<u>The number of bracelets = 3.</u>
Therefore, he can buy 3 bracelets.
The equation is 0.1x + 0.15(50-x)=1.20(50)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here you need 50ml of 12% alcohol solution.
You have 10% and 15% alcohol solutions.
Take volume of 10% alcohol solution to be x ml
Take volume of 15% alcohol solution to be y ml
Form equations;
x+y=50 ml--------------------------equation 1
0.1x +0.15 y= 12% of 50
0.1x+0.15y=6-----------------------equation 2
Now you have simultaneous equations, use a graph tool to solve for values of x and y as attached.
or use the mixture equation the get value of x
0.1x + 0.15(50-x)=1.20(50)
The values of x and y are ;
(x,y) (30,20) which means;
y is 20 ml of 15% alcohol
x is 30 ml of 10% alcohol
