Answer:
16z
Step-by-step explanation:
z = the unknown number of pounds
16 ounces in 1 pound.
So z pounds = 16z
or it can be given as a proportion;
If Sandra mixes <em>x</em> L of 65% solution with <em>y</em> L of 90% solution, then the resulting mixture has a total volume of
<em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 500
litres, and it contains
0.65<em>x</em> + 0.90<em>y</em> = 0.75 (500) = 375
litres of alcohol.
Solve the first equation for <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 500 - <em>x</em>
<em />
Substitute this into the second equation and solve for <em>x</em> :
0.65<em>x</em> + 0.90 (500 - <em>x</em>) = 375
0.65<em>x</em> + 450 - 0.90<em>x</em> = 375
75 = 0.25<em>x</em>
<em>x</em> = 300
Solve for <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 500 - 300
<em>y</em> = 200
So, Sandra should mix 300 L of 65% solution with 200 L of 90% solution.

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: b
Discussion:
7b + 3 - 4b = 3 - 3(b+4) =>
7b + 3 - 4b = 3 - 3b -12 =>
(7b - 4b) + 3 = -3b - 9 =>
3b + 3 = -3b -9 => Add 9 to both sides
3b + 12 = -3b -9 + 9 =>
3b + 12 = -3b => ( add 3b to both sides)
6b + 12 = 0 => (subtract 12 from both sides)
6b = -12 =>
b = -12/6 = -2
Thank you,
MrB
