What is the solution of the equation 1.6m - 4.8 = -1.6m

1 answer:

6 0

Solve for m:
1.6 m - 4.8 = -1.6 m

Add 1.6 m to both sides:
1.6 m + 1.6 m - 4.8 = 1.6 m - 1.6 m

1.6 m - 1.6 m = 0:
1.6 m + 1.6 m - 4.8 = 0

1.6 m + 1.6 m = 3.2 m:
3.2 m - 4.8 = 0

Add 4.8 to both sides:
3.2 m + (-4.8 + 4.8) = 4.8

4.8 - 4.8 = 0:
3.2 m = 4.8

Divide both sides of 3.2 m = 4.8 by 3.2:
(3.2 m)/3.2 = 4.8/3.2

3.2/3.2 = 1:
m = 4.8/3.2

4.8/3.2 ≈ 1.5:
Answer: m ≈ 1.5

A chemist wants to mix a solution of 20% chlorine with a solution of 60% chlorine to make 120 liters of 30% solution of chlorine

Mama L [17]

Answer:

90 and 30 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

1) if solution of 20% is 'x' and of 60% is 'y' liters, then

2) the pure chlorine is: for solution of 20% - 0.2x, for solution of 60% - 0.6y and

3) the mix of the two solutions is 120=x+y.

4) using these items it is possible to make up the system of two equations:

$\left \{ {{x+y=120} \atop {0.2x+0.6y=0.3(x+y)}} \right.$

5) finally, x=90 liters of 20%; y=30 liters of 60% solution.

Car A: 24.8 Miles per gallon.
Car B: 21 Miles per gallon
Car C: 18.75 Miles per gallon

Car A is the answer. Make sure when you are putting work you multiply each number at the start of this answer with 0.62. That'll be how many Kilometers per gallon. Just divide the amount of Miles by the gallons for unit rate.
