How much salt is in a mixture containing 10 gal of an 11% salt solution and 6 gal of a 7% salt solution
1 answer:
In a 10 gal of an 11% salt solution,
11% of 10 gal are sal.
11% *10 gal=(11/100)*10 gal =0.11*10 gal = 0.1 gal is salt.
Similarly, 0.07*6 gal= 0.42 gal is salt of the 6 gal in the second solution.
The mixture is 10 gal +6 gal = 16 gal, and contains a total of
0.1 gal +0.42 gal = 0.52 gal of salt.
0.52 = x% of 16
0.52=x%*16
x=(0.52/16)*100=0.0325*100=3.25
Answer: there is 0.52 gal of salt in the mixture, that is 3.25%

Answer:
Georgette did not complete the factorization; 9 is a composite number.
Step-by-step explanation:
9 can be broken down to 3x3
So it the prime factorization of 72 should be 2x2x2x3x3
3427 + 65.75s = 5000 + 35.5s
65.75s - 35.5s = 5000 - 3427
30.25s = 1573
s = 1573 / 30.25
s = 52 seconds <== they are the same at 52 seconds
3427 + 65.75(52) = 6846
5000 + 35.5(52) = 6846
and their altitude is 6846 <===
