2 m³ of soil containing 35% sand was mixed into 6 m³ of soil containing 15% sand. What is the sand content of the mixture?

1 answer:

6 0

.2 m^3 is 10 percent
.2 m^3 is 10 percent
.2 m^3 is 10 percent
.1 m^3 is 5 percent
therefore
.7m^3 is 35%

.6m^3 is 10%
.3 m^3 is 5%
so .9m^3 is 15 %

all in .9m^3 +.7m^3 = 1.6 m^3 will be sand

On average, Haley is able to read 4 5/6 Chapters in the her book each week . How many weeks will it take Haley to read 9 2/3 Cha

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

2 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

y = total number of chapters read = $9\frac{2}{3}$

m = number of chapters read per week = $4\frac{5}{6}$

x = number of weeks = what we're solving for

b is not needed to find this solution

$9\frac{2}{3}$ = $4\frac{5}{6}$ x divide $4\frac{5}{6}$ from both sides

x = 2 weeks
