To get this answer you set up an equation. 0.95x=57. You then divide both sides by 0.95 giving x=57/0.95 which equals x=60. Therefore, the what number is 60 because 60*0.95=57.

When u set up the answer- however you do it - you can get 60 if you work it out the right way?

What is the solution to the system of equations? y = A system of equations. Y equals StartFraction 2 over 3 EndFraction x plus 3

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The solution to the given system of equations is (-2, $\frac{5}{3}$ )

Therefore the values of x and y are x=-2 and $y=\frac{5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations can be written as

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+3\hfill (1)$

$x=-2x+3x=-2\hfill (2)$

Solving equation(2) we get

x=-2

Substitute x=-2 in equation (1) we get

$y=\frac{2}{3}(-2)+3$

$=-\frac{4}{3}+3$

$=\frac{-4+9}{3}$

$=\frac{5}{3}$

Therefore the values of x and y are x=-2 and $y=\frac{5}{3}$

The solution to the given system of equations is (-2, $\frac{5}{3}$ )

How much pure acid should be mixed with 6 gallons of a 20% acid solution in order to get a 90% acid solution?

beks73 [17]

So, how much acid is there in 6 gallons? well is 20% acid or (20/100), so the amount of acid in it just (20/100) * 6 or 1.2, the rest is say water.

now, if we want a 90% solution, and say we add "y" gallons, how much acid is in it? well (90/100) * y, or 0.9y.

now let's add "x" gallons of pure acid, now, pure acid is just pure acid, so is 100% acid, how much acid is there in it? (100/100) * x, or 1x or just x.

we know whatever "x" and "y" amounts are, they -> x + 6 = y

and we also know that x + 1.2 = 0.9y

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&\stackrel{gallons}{acid}&\stackrel{acid~\%}{quantity}&\stackrel{acid~gallons}{quantity}\\
&------&------&------\\
\textit{pure acid}&x&1.00&x\\
\textit{20\% sol'n}&6&0.20&1.2\\
------&------&------&------\\\
mixture&y&0.90&0.9y
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\begin{cases}
x+6=\boxed{y}\\
x+1.2=0.9y\\
----------\\
x+1.2=0.9\left( \boxed{x+6} \right)
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
x+1.2=0.9x+5.4\implies x-0.9x=5.4-1.2\implies 0.1x=4.2
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{4.2}{0.1}\implies x=\stackrel{gallons}{42}$

A plane can fly 7 miles per minute. The plane will fly 8 trips, and each trip is 810 miles. How many hours will the plane fly? S

ELEN [110]

7*60 = 420

810/420 = 1.9285

93- 100 = 53-60

subtract 40 from 93.

1.53*8 = 12.24

Answer: 12 hours and 24 Minutes

If this helps give a brainliest :)
