<span>Let us start with the schnauzers, the easiest one to imagine. Let us assume that there were x number of schnauzers.
Scottie's are 3 more than schnauzers. So their number is x+3
Wire haired terriers are 5 less than twice the number of schnauzers.
So their number is 2x -5 (2x for twice the number of schnauzers)
Now add all these numbers.
That is x + x+3 + 2x-5 = 4x -2
The total number of dogs, 78, is given in the question
Now we know that 4x -2 =78
4x = 78 +2
= 80
Therefore x = 80/4
= 20.
So there were 20 schnauzers, 23 Scottie’s and 35 wire haired terriers</span>
Answer:
6kg pure copper and 30 kg 10% copper was mixed to give 36kg of 25% alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to produce 36 kg of 25% alloy
Let the Pure copper be x kg while 10% alloy be y kg
Pure copper is simply 100% copper
Thus;
x + y = 36 •••••(i)
Then;
100% of x + 10% of y = 25% of 36
= x + 0.1y = 9 •••••• ii)
From i x = 36-y
from ii, x = 9-0.1y
Equate both x
36-y = 9-0.1y
36-9 = 0.1y + y
0.9y = 27
y = 27/0.9
y = 30
x = 36-y
x = 36-30
x = 6 kg
Midday is 12pm so you add whatever hours to that. Which is 1:20pm after midday (12pm)
&4 - $2= $2 You have to round the numbers to the closest one right.
