29.99-20%= 23.99
25.00-10%= 22.50 so, Mr.chang got the better deal ( but not by much.)

A student has a 2% salt water solution and a 7% salt water solution. To best imitate salt water at a local beach, he needs 1 lit
FromTheMoon [43]

Let

x-------> the amount of 2\% solution

y--------> the amount of 7\% solution

we know that

2\%=0.02\\7\%=0.07\\3.5\%=0.035

so

x+y=1

y=1-x -------> equation A

0.02x+0.07y=0.035 -------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

0.02x+0.07(1-x)=0.035

0.02x+0.07-0.07x=0.035

0.05x=0.035

x=0.7\ liters

find the value of y

y=1-x

y=1-0.7=0.3\ liters

therefore

The student need 0.7\ liters of 2\% solution and 0.3\ liters of 7\% solution

<u>the answer is</u>

A) The percent values were written incorrectly in the equation

B) The amount of 7% solution should be written as 1 – x, not x – 1.

The area of a square shaped yard is 201.5 ft2. Which measurement is closest to the side length of this yard in feet?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

a = 14.19 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The area of a square shaped yard is 201.5 ft²

We need to find the side length of this yard in feet.

The area of a square shaped object is given by :

A = a², a is the side length of the object

Put A = 201.5 ft² in above formula,

201.5=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{201.5 } \\\\a=14.19\ \text{feet}

So, the side of the square yard is 14.19 feet.

What is the greatest common monomial factor of the expression
Yuki888 [10]
You can factor out 36*5=180 and 27*4=108 and find that they have 36 as greatest common divisor. The x and y factors have xy as the best you can divide by. So the factor becomes 36xy

36xy(5y²+3) = 36x5y³ + 27x4y
