Answer:

558.036 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x is the amount of the sea water to collect 125 lb of sea salt

As given: 64 lb/ft³ has 0.0035 dissolved salt by weight

So the formula to find out the amount of the sea water is:

64 lb/ft³ * 0.0035 *x ft³  = 125 lb

<=> x = \frac{125}{64*0.035} = 558.036 lb

Hope it will find you well.

Brainly.com fam help me fine the value of the x thank you so much
Thepotemich [5.8K]
First you subtract 47 from both sides (-47 from 47 and -47 from 32)
Then you get -3x = -15
Divide -3 from -3x and -3 from -15
Leaving you with X = 5
