Let f be amount of 43% and  s be amount of 16%...

s+f=90, f=90-s

(.16s+.43f)/90=.25  using f found above we get:

(.16s+.43(90-s))/90=.25

.16s+38.7-.43s=22.5

-.27s=-16.2

s=60, and since  f=90-s, f=30

So the chemist will need to mix 60ml of 16% solution with 30ml of 43% solution to create 90ml of a 25% solution.

Solve the equation for y. 4x - 5y = 9
babymother [125]

Answer:

y = (4x - 9) / 5 or y = 4/5x - 9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for y

4x - 5y = 9

-5y = -4x + 9

5y = 4x - 9

y = (4x - 9) / 5 or y = 4/5x - 9/5

An excursion group of four is to be drawn from among 5 boys and 6 girls.
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Because you are recounting people several times. Say for example, let us number those people

{1,2,3,4} for the four girls and {1,2…7} for the boys.

One possible combination by your way is to fix one boy and girl each, say

{1,1} and then choose the remaining people. Let this combination be, for the sake of the example, {1,1,2,2,3}. This is a valid combination.

Now, when you fix another combination of a boy and a girl, say {1,2}, you could get the same combination as before because one the combinations while choosing the three remaining people would be {1,2,3}.

A correct way would be to choose  girls and then choose 5− boys for 1≤≤4

So we get ∑4=1(4)(75−)=441
