Answer:

15.

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=50\\0.2x+0.1y=6\end{array}\right.

16. 10 ml of 20% saline and 40 ml of 10% saline

Step-by-step explanation:

A chemist takes x ml of 20% saline and y ml of 10% saline. In total, he takes

x + y ml that is 50 ml, so

x + y = 50.

There are  0.2x ml of salt in x ml of 20% saline and 0.1y ml of salt in 10% saline. There are 0.12\cdot 50=6 ml of salt in 50 ml of 12% saline. Thus,

0.2x+0.1y=6

15. We get the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=50\\0.2x+0.1y=6\end{array}\right.

16. Solve this system. From the first equation:

x=50-y

Substitute it into the second equation:

0.2(50-y)+0.1y=6\\ \\10-0.2y+0.1y=6\\ \\-0.1y=6-10\\ \\-0.1y=-4\\ \\y=40\\ \\x=50-y=50-40=10

Answer:

3.5×10^4=35000

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the value

3.5

we are saying that we are counting in units (1's) in that we have

3

1

2

of 1's

'.....................................................................................

Consider the value

3.5

×

10

. Now we are saying we have

3

1

2

of tens. That is; 3 lots of 10 is 30 and

1

2

of 10 is 5 so we have

30

+

5

=

35

'.................................................................................

Note that

10

2

is 100

Consider the value

3.5

×

10

2

. Now we are saying we have

3

1

2

of

100

'

s

So if we are counting in 100's then the decimal point stays where

it is and we move the number of 3.5 to the left until the

3 becomes hundreds.

Note that we have to insert a place holder of 0 just to the left of the decimal point to make sure the three is viewed as in the hundreds.
