Volume of first oil = A, volume of second oil = B, volume of mixture = M
A = ?, B = 4l, M = A + B

40%A + 25%B = 30%M
40%A + 25%4l = 30%(A+4l)
<span>40%A + 25%4l = 30%A + 30%4l
40A + 100l = 30A + 120l
40A - 30 A = 120l - 100l
10A = 20l
A = 2l
</span>
Answer: 2 litres of 40% oil dressing.

Also note: That's an approximation, because the volumes are not strictly additive. For example: mixing 50ml pure ethanol with 50ml water will give you about 95ml of mixture. To get an accurate answer, you'd have to measure the volume of the final mixture and then divide your total oil content by that<span>.</span>

mina [271]
Combine costs
59.99(3) + 75 = 179.97 + 75
179.97 + 75 = $254.99 (total cost)
Now add tax: 8% = 0.08
254.99 * 0.08 = 20.3992
254.99 + 20.3992 = 275.3892

Solution: bill would be around $275

Answer:

82.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the height is given below:

As we know that each right triangle contains the top angle of 20 degrees

So, the right angle & the bottom corner angle equivalent to

= 180 - 90 - 20

= 70 degrees

Now the height is

tangent = opposite leg ÷ adjacent leg

tan (70°) = height ÷ 30 cm

height = 30 cm × tan (70°)

= 82.4 cm
