Answer:
3:7
Step-by-step explanation:
So to solve this problem, you have to understand what the ratio 1:4 and 2:3 means. The 1:4 ratio in the first equation means that for "each unit of alcohol" there is 4 of those units of water. So let's say I had 2 gallons of alcohol and mixed it with 8 gallons of water. This means for each gallon of alcohol, there is 4 gallons of water, or in other words a 1:4 ratio. This can be described as a percentage as well. For each 5 gallons there are 4 gallons of water, and 1 gallon of alcohol or <em>20%</em> is alcohol. So let's just say that x=alcohol and y=water, this means that:
where c is the total amount in the glass. This means that: 
Let's do the same thing to the second equation. the ratio means that for every 2 units of alcohol there are 3 units of water. This means for every 5 gallons of the mixture there is 2 units of alcohol which is 40%. In this case let's also say that j=alcohol and k=water. This means that:
and that:
.
So if we're going to add the two glasses, we simply add the two sides, and get:
. Now remember how can can express j and x in terms of c, since it's a certain percentage of c (the entire thing). This means that we get:
Now we can add like terms to get the equation:
. We can find how much 0.6c is to 2c by dividing the 2, in doing so we get that 0.6c/2c = 0.3, or in other words the 0.6c is only 30% of the final mixture, and since the 0.6c represents the alcohol in this mixture, that means that's the percentage of alcohol. To write this as a ratio, this means for every 3 units of alcohol, there is 7 units of water, because 3/10 = 30%.
Answer:
i'm guessing b or a sorry if i'm wrong TwT
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry
You take 5/16 division you change it in matplication 3 goes up and 2 comes down so you numbers will be
5/16 times 3/2 you take 5 time3 is 15 and 16 times 2 is 32
So ur answer will be 15/32
Answer:
-6 is the y coordinate
Step-by-step explanation:
$20 because 10% of 40 is 10 and the price now is 40 so 2 years before would have been 20
