Let x be the amount of the solution containing 10% of the chemical. Then, the solution with 40% chemical becomes 10 - x. The equation for balancing the chemical content of the solution is,
0.10x + 0.40(10 - x) = 0.25(10)
The value of x is 5. Hence, the druggist should mix 5 ounces of each. There are 2.5 ounces of chemical in the final mixture.

Answer:
=AC or 7.8102=AC
Step-by-step explanation:
If we connect a line from point A to point C we create a triangle, and we can use pythagorean theorem to find this distance. So the line from point A to point C will be our hypotenuse and the other two distances will be out side lengths.

25+36=
61=
=AC or 7.8102=AC
