We know that
2 liters of pure water = 0 % of sugar
8 liters of syrup = 48% of sugar

Water = (2 liters x 0%) = 0 total sugar liters
Syrup = (8 liters x 48%) = 3.84 total sugar liters
Total liter mix =8+2-----> 10 liters

Total liters of sugar = 0 + 3.84 = 3.84
if 10 liters-----------> 100%
3.84 liters--------> x
X=3.84*100/10-----> x=38.4%

the answer is
38.4%

Answer:

The basic formula is °C + 273.15 = K. The basic formula for converting Fahrenheit into Celsius is (°F − 32) × 5/9 = °C. To convert Fahrenheit degrees into Kelvins, (°F − 32) × 5/9 + 273.15

Which sum or difference identity would you use to vertify that cos (180⁰- thata)=-cos thata <br>

astraxan [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the angle difference formula for cosine.

cos(α − β) = cos α cos β + sin α sin β

cos(180° − θ) = cos 180° cos θ + sin 180° sin θ

cos(180° − θ) = (-1) cos θ + (0) sin θ

cos(180° − θ) = -cos θ

Find the sum of 2 and 1/3 + 1 and 3/4 and answer in simplest form.

JulijaS [17]

So, one thing that we would really want to do is to take (first), the whole numbers. This make it a whole lot easier for the both of us. So we do . . .

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2+1=3\end{array}\right]$

Then we add up the fractions.

$(3+1)=4 \left \{ {{\boxed{1+2} \ \ \Longrightarrow =\ (3)\atop {\boxed{1/4+3/4}} \right. \Longrightarrow = (1)$

Your answer: (4)
