First thing you gotta do is to sub in the numbers into the equation/expression
<span>uxy = (2)(9)(6)
</span> = 108
* brackets means multiplying
Final answer is 108
1.75
2.15
3.105
4.90
these are the answers
Answer:
x = 9
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up equations:
x + y = 15
x - y = 3
Let's rearrange one of these equations to use the substitution method:
x - y = 3
Add y to each side:
x = y + 3
Substitute in for x:
x + y = 15
y + 3 + y = 15
Combine like terms:
( y + y ) + 3 = 15
2y + 3 = 15
Subtract 3 from each side:
2y = 12
Divide each side by 2:
y = 6
Substitute this in to find the other variable:
x + y = 15
x + 6 = 15
Subtract 6 from each side:
x = 9
A pharmacist has 40% and 80% of iodine solutions on hand. How many liters of each iodine solution will be required to produce 4 liters of a 50% iodine mixture?
.
Let x = liters of 40% iodine
then
4-x = liters of 80% iodine
Using algebra:
.40x + .80(4-x) = .50(4)
.40x + 3.20-.80x = 2
3.20-.40x = 2
x = 4 liters (40% iodine)
80% iodine:
4-x = 4-4 = 0 liters needed (80% iodine)
