Answer: He is not correct.
Steps:
Let x1 and x2 be the first and second number, respectively.
In words, if the second is 125%, or 5/4 of the first number (first equation),
then the first is 4/5 of the second, which is 0.8 or 80%.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of ounces of
A = x
B = y
A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 40% salt and Solution B is 55% salt. She wants to obtain 90 ounces of a mixture that is 45% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?
Our system of equations is given as
x + y = 90.... Equation 1
x = 90 - y
40% × x + 55% × y = 45% × 90 ounces
0.4x + 0.55y = 40.5....Equation 2
We substitute 90 - y for x in Equation 2
3/64 inches

Answer:
1/4 cups of milk and 1 1/3 Tbsp of butter.
Step-by-step explanation:
Milk : 3/4 multiplied by 1/3 = 3/12 = 1/4
