It is 3 x -5 = -15 (x is times )
B- i could be wrong though
3a + b = 54...when b = 9
3a + 9 = 54
3a = 54 - 9
3a = 45
a = 45/3
a = 15 <===
step-by-step explanation: the increase = 204 - 120
increase = 84
percent increase = 84/120
percent increase = 70% so of course the percentage is 70% ( I hope this helps you )
Answer:
61.25%
Step-by-step explanation:
How many ml of 20 percent acid should be added to pure acid
to make 70 ml of 30 percent acid?
:
let x = amt of 20% mixture
then
(70-x) = amt of pure acid
:
0.20x + (70-x) =0 .30(70)
0.20x + 70 - x = 21
= 21 - 70
-0.8x =-49
x = 61.25%
x = +61.25 ml of 20% stuff
