Answer:

  6 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of pure concentrate used to make the punch. Then the total amount of concentrate in the punch is ...

 0.20·10 +1.00x = 0.50(10+x)

  x +2 = 0.5x +5 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  0.5x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 2+0.5x

  x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

6 liters of pure concentrate must be added to make a 50% punch.

Three-quarters of a number is. 15 work out four-fifths of the number.
Wittaler [7]

3/4 of X = 15

Multiplying out gives;

3X = 4x15

3X= 60

X = 20

Therefore, 4/5 of 20

Putting X = 20 we have;

4/5 x 20 = 16

so the answer is 16

What is the relationship between the value of the digit 3 in 4,231 and in the value of the digit 3 in the number 3,421?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

A.

In 4231, the value of the digit 3 is 110 less than the value of the digit 3 in 3421.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the value of 3 In 4231 is in ten while the value of 3 in 3421 is in thousands.

So to get the actual division factor, let's take 3300 and divide it by 30,

3300/30 = 110

So it's clear already, that the value of 3 in 4231 is 110 times less to the value in 3421

Please help! I’m kinda stuck on these type of questions so an explanation would help too!
inna [77]

Answer:

a. 49

Step-by-step explanation:

so, basically turn the equation around! -15+64.  because -15 is in parentheses, we know that it is negative, but another way you can do it is to take away the addition symbol and just use the negative as a subtraction one.  so you could do 64-15 and you get 49.  for b it's a little different, two negative cancel each other out so because there's a subtraction sign after 18 and there's a  negative sign before 55 you can see that to simplify the equation it would be -18+55 or again 55-18.  for c I think that one is pretty simple, just do 92-86 (I don't know if you see the pattern yet but most times you can just flip it around.) and for d you can do 17 plus 44 and then make the solution negative.  I hope this helped a little!!
