How much pure acid should be mixed with 55 gallons of a 60%acid solution in order to get an 80% acid solution?

1 answer:

4 0

Work in amount of pure acid let x = gallons of pure acid required.
then we have the equation:-

x + 55(0.6) = 0.80(x + 55)

x + 33 = 0.80x + 44
0.20x = 11
x = 11/0.2 = 55 gallons answer

A park district has 45 pine trees and 30 oak trees to be planted. They are separating the trees for different areas. They want e

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

greatest number of areas that can be created=5

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

Number of pine trees = 45

Number of oak trees = 30

solution

we want area have same number of both trees

so we get here greatest number of area

we find here greatest common factor of 45 and 30

so Prime factorization of 45 and 30 are

45 = 3 × 3 × 5

30 = 2 × 3 × 5

as here GCF = 5

so here greatest number of areas that can be created=5

Two cars which are 40 miles apart start moving simultaneously in the same direction with constant speeds. If the speed of the ca

IgorC [24]

Answer:

5mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two cars are 40 miles apart at the beginning.

They started at the same time with speeds 48 mph and 56 mph respectively

Since both cars are travelling in the same direction,

Relative velocity = Speed of the behind car-Speed of the first car

=56-48 =8mph

To catch the I car, the second car has to travel a distance of 40 miles extra in the same time as the I car

i.e. speed to be made up by the second car = 40 miles

Relative velocity per hour = 8mph

Hence time taken to catch up = $\frac{40}{8} =5mph$
