Answer:

The volume or amount of pure cordial to be added to the solution to make the strength 20% is 125 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters, are;

The volume of cordial in the jug = 1 litre

The percentage strength of the cordial = 10%

The proportion of the cordial that contains pure cordial = 0.1

Therefore, the volume of pure cordial in the jug = 0.1 × 1 = 0.1 × 1000 ml = 100 ml

The volume of the solvent = The volume of the solution -  The initial volume of pure cordial

∴ The volume of the solvent = 1000 ml - 100 ml = 900 ml

To increase the concentration of the cordial to 20% is given by the relation;

x/(x+900) = 0.2

Where;

x = The total volume of the pure cordial to be added to the pure solvent

Solving, gives;

x = 0.2×(x+900) = 0.2·x + 180

x -0.2·x = 180

0.8·x = 180

x = 180/0.8 = 225 ml

The total volume of the pure cordial to be added to the pure solvent = x = 225 ml

Therefore, the volume of pure cordial to be added to the initial volume of pure cordial in the solution, which is 100 ml, is therefore given as follows;

The volume or amount of pure cordial to be added = 225 ml - 100 ml = 125 ml.

The volume or amount of pure cordial to be added = 125 ml

Chris wants to order blu-rays over the internet. Each Blu-ray cost $29.99 and shipping for
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

4 blu-rays

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note: I'm rounding up to full dollars to make this easier. You will get the same answer, whether you round up or not.

First, get rid of the shipping cost from the budget.

$150 - $10 = <u>$140 left for blu-rays</u>

Then divide $140 by $30, which is the price for a single blu-ray to get the number of blu-rays Chris can get.

$140 ÷ $30 ≈ 4.6 repeating. You can't have a fraction of a movie, so Chris can get 4 blu-rays
