Answer:
- 24 ounces of solution B
- 16 ounces of solution A
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest contributor of salt to the mix is the 45% solution (B), so we'll let our variable (b) represent the quantity of that. The total amount desired is 40 ounces, so the quantity of solution A is (40-b) ounces. Then the amount of salt in the mix is ...
0.45b +0.20(40-b) = 0.35(40)
Simplifying and subtracting 0.20(40), we get ...
0.25b = 0.15(40)
b = 40(.15/.25) = 24
(40-b) = 16
The scientist should use 24 ounces of Solution B and 16 ounces of Solution A.
Answer:
side length is 
feet
Step-by-step explanation:
An equilateral triangle has a height of 10 feet. the height of the triangle is the perpendicular bisector to the base
so it forms a two right angle triangle
the triangle formed is a 30-60-90 degree triangle
the diagram is attached below
Let x be the side if the equilateral triangle
sin(theta)=opposite by hypotenuse
cross multiply
