Answer:
Can't read the picture. Please take a bigger picture of the triangle.
50 ounces of 15% saline solution contains 0.15*50 = 7.5 ounces of salt.
Let x be the amount of pure water you add to this solution. Then you end up with (x + 50) ounces of this new solution. The amount of salt stays the same.
You want the new solution to have a concentration of 10%. This means you need
7.5 / (x + 50) = 0.1
==> 7.5 = 0.1(x + 50)
==> 7.5 = 0.1x + 5
==> 2.5 = 0.1x
==> 2.5/0.1 = 0.1x/0.1
==> x = 25
Answer:
$18,726.11
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets use the compound interest formula provided to solve this:

<em>P = initial balance</em>
<em>r = interest rate (decimal)</em>
<em>n = number of times compounded annually</em>
<em>t = time</em>
<em />
First lets change 9% into a decimal:
9% ->
-> 0.09
Since the interest is compounded quarterly, we will use 4 for n. Lets plug in the values now:


<u>The balance after 5 years is $18,726.11</u>
