Answer:
if Im correct it should be $8.40
Step-by-step explanation:
why well if you think of breaking down by say 1/4 of 168 all you do is divide 4 which is the whole amount by 0.2 which is the amount the father gave her so 4/0.2= 20 the you take your whole 168 and divide by 20 which the whole number for 0.2 the your answer should be this 168/20= 8.4 which then i assumed it was $8.40 hopefully that is correct hehe
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
26% is (26-20)/(50-20) = 6/30 = 1/5 of the way between 20% and 50%. That means 1/5 of the solution is 50% acid.
50% acid: 1/5 · 100 mL = 20 mL
20% acid: 100 mL -20 mL = 80 mL
Delbert must mix 80 mL of 20% acid and 20 mL of 50% acid.
_____
Maybe you'd like to see an equation. Let x represent the amount of 50% acid required. Then 100-x is the amount of 20% acid needed. The amount of acid in the mix is ...
0.50(x) +0.20(100 -x) = 0.26(100)
(0.50 -0.20)x = (0.26 -0.20)100 . . . . subtract 0.20(100)
x = (0.26 -0.20)/(0.50 -0.20)×100 = 20
This last expression should look a lot like the one we started with in this answer. It shows you how you can almost write down the answer to mixture problems without a lot of work.
Answer:
1) The quotient of r and 0.2 is equal to 40.
2) r divided by 0.2 is equal to 40.
Answer:
x > 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First simplify the bracket....to give you...x + 2...then
; 4x + x + 2 > 12....
; 5x + 2 > 12
; 5x > 12 - 2.....then gives you...5x > 10...then divide both sides by 5
then gives you....; x > 2
