A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with Italian dressing. The Italian dressing contains 12%
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Amount of  vinegar. 100% : 20 milliliters

Amount of  Italian dressing: 140 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of  vinegar. 100%

Let's call B the amount of  Italian dressing . 12% vinegar

The resulting mixture should have 23%  vinegar, and 160 milliliters.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

A + B = 160

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:

A + 0.12B = 0.23 * 160

A + 0.12B = 36.8

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -1 and add it to the second equation:

-A -B = -160

-A -B = -160

               +

A + 0.12B = 36.8

--------------------------------------

-0.88B = -123.2

B = \frac{-123.2}{-0.88}

B = 140\ milliliters

We substitute the value of B into one of the two equations and solve for A.

A + 140 = 160

A = 20\ milliliters

<h3>Answer: Choice C) $1,444.50</h3>

========================================================

There are two methods to get the answer.

The slightly longer method is to take 7% of the original price to get

7% of 1350 = (7/100)*1350 = 0.07*1350 = 94.50

The sales tax is $94.50

Add this onto the original price to get 1,350+94.50 = 1,444.50

----------------------------

A shortcut is to multiply the original price by 1.07

The multiplier 1.07 represents a 7% increase since

  • 1 = 100%
  • 0.07 = 7%
  • 1.07 = 1 + 0.7 = 100% + 7%

So we will have 1.07*1350 = 1,444.50

In a recent year, 31% of all college students were enrolled part-time. If 8.6 million college students were enrolled part-time t
Ronch [10]

Answer:

28 million college students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent all college students as x. This means that all part-time college students are \frac{31}{100}x. Because all part-time college students are also equal to 8.6 million, we have 8,600,000=\frac{31}{100}x. To find the number of total college students, or x, we have to multiply by 100/31 to get rid of the fraction on the other side:

8,600,00\cdot\frac{100}{31}=x

The left side of the equation evaluates as 27,741,935.5. Because we are asked to round to the nearest million, we have to round to 28 million, which is the closest.
