Answer:

x=(-13/5), y=(-6/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

I will do step by step since I dont see a picture.

when you add them it gets rid of the y,

5x=-13

divide out the 5

x=(-13/5)

plug this into the first equation

2(-13/5)-y=-4

-5.2-y=-4

add 5.2 to each side

-y=1.2

divide out the negative

y=-1.2 or (-6/5)

You need a 75% alcohol solution. On hand, you have a 1125 mL of a 90% alcohol mixture. How much pure water will you need to add
Alex777 [14]
\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&amount&concentration&&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;concentrated\\&#10;amount&#10;\end{array}\\&#10;&-----&-------&-------\\&#10;\textit{90\% sol'n}&1125&0.9&(1125)0.9\\&#10;\textit{water}&x&0&0x\\&#10;-----&-----&-------&-------\\&#10;mixture&y&0.75&0.75y&#10;\end{array}

so.. whatever "x" is, we know 1125 + x = y
and whatever the alcohol concentration yield may be, we know

(1125)(0.9) = 0.75y

(1125)(0.9) = 0.75y   <--- solve for "y", that's how much the final amount of milliliters will be

how much pure water was added? subtract 1125 from that, or y - 1125

Daniel puts some wheat flour into an empty bowl. Then he add 2/3 cup rye flour to make a total of 2 5/12 cups of flour. How much
lozanna [386]

Answer:

1 3/4 cups of wheat flour is in the bowl

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2/3 = 2 5/12

First, convert the 2/3 to 12ths by multiplying numerator and denominator by 4 = 8/12

Then convert the 2 5/12 to an improper fraction 29/12

x + 8/12 = 29/12

subtract 8/12 from both sides

x = 21/12 = 1 9/12 = 1 3/4
