<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • 32 ounces of 95% salt
  • 48 ounces of 70% salt
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Let x represent the number of ounces of 95% salt she should use.

Then the total amount of salt in the 80 ounces of solution is ...

... 0.95x + 0.70(80-x) = 0.80·80

... 0.25x = 64 -56 . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 56

... x = 8·4 = 32 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4

She should use 32 ounces of 95% salt and (80-32=) 48 ounces of 70% salt,

If p(x)=2x^2-4x and q(x)=x-3 what is (p*q)(x)
Tanya [424]

Answer: 2x³-10x²+12x or 2x(x²-5x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

(p*q)(x) means p(x) and q(x) multiplied together.

(2x²-4x)(x-3)

2x³-6x²-4x²+12x

2x³-10x²+12x

You can also factor this by taking out a 2x.

2x(x²-5x+6)
