Let x represent the number of liters of 50% acid Theresa puts into the mix. The the number of liters of 30% acid will be (420-x). The total amount of acid in the final solution will be ...
  0.50x + 0.30(420-x) = 0.45(420)
  0.20x + 126 = 189 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
  0.20x = 63 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 126
  x = 63/0.20 = 315 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . liters of 50% solution
  (420-x) = 420-315 = 105 . . . . . . . . . liters of 30% solution

Theresa should mix ...
  105 liters of 30% solution
  315 liters of 50% solution

Find three consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the largest and twice the smallest is 25,
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the smallest integer is x, the next odd number would be x + 2, and the largest would be x + 4.  The sum of the largest (x+4) and twice the smallest (2x) is 25.  The equation for that would be (x+4)+2x=25 which is 3x + 4 = 25.  Not sure how far you have to go with it.  But that equation could be solved for x.
