If Sandra mixes <em>x</em> L of 65% solution with <em>y</em> L of 90% solution, then the resulting mixture has a total volume of
<em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 500
litres, and it contains
0.65<em>x</em> + 0.90<em>y</em> = 0.75 (500) = 375
litres of alcohol.
Solve the first equation for <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 500 - <em>x</em>
<em />
Substitute this into the second equation and solve for <em>x</em> :
0.65<em>x</em> + 0.90 (500 - <em>x</em>) = 375
0.65<em>x</em> + 450 - 0.90<em>x</em> = 375
75 = 0.25<em>x</em>
<em>x</em> = 300
Solve for <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 500 - 300
<em>y</em> = 200
So, Sandra should mix 300 L of 65% solution with 200 L of 90% solution.
7 + 2x = 51

Answer:
X=24
Step-by-step explanation:
1. (4x + 11) + (3x + 1) = 180 (Combine like terms)
2. 7x + 12 = 180 (Subtract 12 from both sides)
3. 7x = 168 (Divide both sides by 7)
4. x = 24
A^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = c^2
c^2 = 25 + 144
c^2 = 169
c = 13cm
Answer:
-1/2 is your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope formula is (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)
The y's are -3 and 2, while the x's are 9 and -1.
(-3-2)/(9-(-1))=-5/10=
-1/2 is your answer.
