Two solutions of salt water contain 0.07% and 0.23% salt respectively. A lab technician wants to make 1 liter of solution which
DerKrebs [107]

0.75 liter of 0.07 % is used and 0.25 liter of 0.23 % salt is used

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

We have to 1 liter of final solution

Let "x" be the salt solution of 0.07 %

Then, (1 - x) is the salt solution of 0.23 %

Then final solution should be 1 liter of solution which contains 0.11 % salt

Thus, 0.07 % of "x" is mixed with 0.23 % of (1 - x) to make a solution 0.11 % of 1 liter

<em><u>Thus a equation is framed as:</u></em>

0.07 % of x + 0.23 % of (1 - x) = 0.11 % of 1

0.07 \% \times x + 0.23 \% \times (1-x) = 0.11 \% \times 1\\\\\frac{0.07}{100} \times x + \frac{0.23}{100} \times (1-x) = \frac{0.11}{100} \times 1\\\\0.0007x + 0.0023(1-x) = 0.0011\\\\0.0007x + 0.0023 - 0.0023x = 0.0011\\\\-0.0016x = -0.0012\\\\x = 0.75

Thus 0.75 liter of 0.07 % is used

And,

1 - x = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25

Thus 0.25 liter of 0.23 % salt is used

a cyclist pedaling at a steady rate travels 30 miles with the wind. He can travel only 18 miles against the wind in the same amo
blondinia [14]
So.. traveling without the wind, let's say the pedalist has a speed of "r"

with the wind, the wind's rate is added to it, so, he's not going "r" fast, he's really going r+3 fast

against the wind, he's going r - 3 fast

notice, he covers 30 miles with it, and 18 miles against BUT the time for both ways is the same, say time "t"

now, recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

thus \bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&distance(mi)&rate(mph)&time\\&#10;&-----&-----&-----\\&#10;\textit{with the wind}&30&r+3&t\\&#10;\textit{against the wind}&18&r-3&t&#10;\end{array}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;30=(r+3)t\implies \frac{30}{r+3}=t\\\\&#10;18=(r-3)t\implies \frac{18}{r-3}=t&#10;\end{cases}\implies t=t\implies \cfrac{30}{r+3}=\cfrac{18}{r-3}

solve for "r"
