Answer:
7.5 L of 10% solution and 22.5 L of 30% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of 10% solution plus volume of 30% solution = total volume of 25% volume.
x + y = 30
Acid in 10% solution plus acid in 30% solution = total acid in 25% solution.
0.10 x + 0.30 y = 30 × 0.25
0.10 x + 0.30 y = 7.5
Solve the system of equations, using either substitution or elimination. I'll use substitution:
x = 30 − y
0.10 (30 − y) + 0.30 y = 7.5
3 − 0.10 y + 0.30 y = 7.5
0.20 y = 4.5
y = 22.5
x = 30 − y
x = 7.5
Sarah needs 7.5 L of 10% solution and 22.5 L of 30% solution.
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve the equation:
4x + 6 = 38
4x = 38 - 6
4x = 32
x = 32 ÷ 4
x = 8
£6.72 not sure but think that’s right, because you divide by ten for ten percent and multiply it by two (20%) then add it to £5.60
