Let there be x quarts of the 20% salt solution, and (25 - x) quarts of the 80% salt solution.
Then the total amount of salt in the 20% portion would be 0.2x, while that from the 80% portion would be (0.8)(25 - x). This would have to total up to (0.44)(25) in the final solution, so the equation is:
0.2x + 0.8(25 - x) = (0.44)(25)
-0.6x + 20 = 11
x = 15 quarts of the 20% salt solution
25 - x = 10 quarts of the 80% salt solution

What is the range of the data? 2,8,7,8,6,15,6,3,8
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a data set is the difference between the greatest and least values in the set. In this case, the greatest value is 15 and the least value is 2 so the range is 15 - 2 = 13.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

<u>y = -3x + 8</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given :-</u>

Point on line = (5, -7)

Slope (m) = -3

<u>To find :-</u>

Equation of line

<u>Solving :-</u>

Using point-slope form of equation,

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y + 7 = -3(x - 5)

y + 7 = -3x + 15

<u>Solution :-</u>

<u>y = -3x + 8</u>
