Let volume of 4% solution = x and of 14% be y
them x + y = 65........(1) also using the actual weights of salt:-
0.04x + 0.14y = 65*0.06 = 3.9
multiplying the above equation by -25 we have
-x - 3.5y = -97.5 adding this to equation (1)
--2.5y = -32.5
y= 13
and x = 65 - 13 = 52
so we need 13 mls of the 14%, and 52 mls of the 4% solution.
In order to solve this problem, you need to use a geometric series:

where:
a₁ = first term of the series = 36000
r = common rate = 10% raise, therefore 1.10
n = number of terms = 5

Answer:
The rate is
cups per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
It took the faucet 1 1/2 hours, i.e 1.5 or 3/2 hours to fill 1/4 cup by leaking
We need to find the rate in terms of cups that can be filled by water in 1 hour.
Using unitary method:
If it takes
h for
cup;
then it will take 1 h for how many cups?



cups
Therefore, the rate is
cups per hour
Area = l x w
Area =9 x 4.25
A = 48.25
A≈ 48 in²
