Answer:
- 26 ounces of 55% solution
- 104 ounces of 80% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the quantity of 80% solution. Then 130-x is the amount of 55% solution. The total amount of salt in the mix is ...
0.80x +0.55(130 -x) = 0.75·130
0.25x = 0.20·130 . . . . . . . subtract 0.55(130)
x = 0.20/0.25(130) = 104
130-x = 26
She should use 26 ounces of 55% solution and 104 ounces of 80% solution.
So, we have x=√8x. The square root is a number times itself, so x=√x*x. That means that 8 is x.
The answer is 3.34 pounds also the estimate would be 3 pounds.
So it cooks for 2 hrs and 20 minutes......and it has to be done by 1 pm.
so from 1 p.m. - 2 hrs = 11 a.m........- 20 minutes = 10:40 a.m
start cooking at 10:40 a.m. and it will be done by 1 p.m
