You can solve <span>9/x-4/y=8 for x or for y but NOT at the same time.

Solving for x:  </span><span>9/x-4/y=8       Mult all 3 terms by xy to eliminate the fractions.

9(xy)/x - 4xy/y = 8xy         =>       9y - 4x = 8xy, or 9y = 4x + 8xy = 4x(1+2y)

                                                                        then 9y = x [ 4(1+2y) ]
                                                                                     9y
                                                            therefore x = ------------
                                                                                  4(1+2y)

Solve for y using a similar approach.

Salinity is a measure of the salt content of a body of water. One researcher measures the salinity of the Indian Ocean as 3.2%.
frosja888 [35]
Divide each percentage to find a multiplier:

34/3.2 = 10.625

The Dead Sea is 10.625 times saltier than the Indian Ocean.

So if Indian Ocean bucket = 56 grams of salt

Multiply that by our multiplier.

56 * 10.625 = 595 grams

The answer is 595 grams

Emily has 32 grams of a 25% sugar syrup, but this is just too sweet for her! How much pure water should she add to have a 10% sy
GarryVolchara [31]
32 grams = water mass + sugar mass . 100% syrup=75% water+ 25%sugar 
original water content= 32*75/100=24 grams
original sugar content= 32*25/100= 8grams 

total mass at 10% syrup:
8grams/total mass=10%=0.1
total mass=8/0.1=80grams
total mass of water=80grams- 8grams of sugar content= 72 grams
total mass of water added=72grams- 24grams original water content= 48grams.

answer: 48grams
