Answer:

  • 24 ounces of solution B
  • 16 ounces of solution A

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest contributor of salt to the mix is the 45% solution (B), so we'll let our variable (b) represent the quantity of that. The total amount desired is 40 ounces, so the quantity of solution A is (40-b) ounces. Then the amount of salt in the mix is ...

  0.45b +0.20(40-b) = 0.35(40)

Simplifying and subtracting 0.20(40), we get ...

  0.25b = 0.15(40)

  b = 40(.15/.25) = 24

  (40-b) = 16

The scientist should use 24 ounces of Solution B and 16 ounces of Solution A.

Center of rhombus bisects 90°.

Sum of angles in triangle = 180°
x + x + 14 + 90 = 180
2x + 104 = 180
2 (x + 52) = 180
x = (180 ÷ 2) - 52
x = 90 - 52
x = 38°
