Answer: Sarah’s neighbor offers to pay her $5 for every shark tooth she finds on the beach. After collecting only three shark’s teeth, Sarah decides to share the opportunity with her friend John. Sarah can find shark teeth twice as fast as John, but she can earn even more money with his help.
Sarah can use the expression 5(2j + 3 + j) to represent the amount of money they can earn. Therefore, The total money they earned is $5 x 15 = $75.
the answer will be -0.8, if i helped thank you
Total = 36oz
Amount of 18% solution = x
Amount of 9% solution = 36 - x
Using the fact that (amount of solution) * (percent HCl) = amount HCl we can set up an expression for the amount HCl in a mixture of 18% and 9% solutions with a total volume of 36oz.
Amount of HCl = x*0.18 + (36 - x)*0.09
If we divide this by the amount of solution we get percent HCl, and we have a target of 10% HCl. Now we have an equation to solve,
[x*0.18 + (36 - x)*0.09]/36 = 0.1
x*0.09 + 3.24 = 3.6
.09x = 0.36
x = 4
Therefore,
4 ounces of 18% HCl solution and 32 ounces of 9% HCl solution
Check:
[(4*.18) + (.09*32)]/36 = 0.1?
0.1 = 0.1 Yes.
