Hello!
Let's think about the denominators we have. A seventh goes on forever in no specified order. A fifth an a fourth have set decimal values, 0.2 and 0.25, so they are not repeating decimals. A ninth is 0.111111..., it repeats like this forever in a specified order. Therefore, 2/9, or 0.222222...., would be a repeating decimal.
Therefore, our answer is
.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
- 26 ounces of 55% solution
- 104 ounces of 80% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the quantity of 80% solution. Then 130-x is the amount of 55% solution. The total amount of salt in the mix is ...
0.80x +0.55(130 -x) = 0.75·130
0.25x = 0.20·130 . . . . . . . subtract 0.55(130)
x = 0.20/0.25(130) = 104
130-x = 26
She should use 26 ounces of 55% solution and 104 ounces of 80% solution.
It would be -4x+(-12)=12 good luck
