How much water should we add to 35 kg of sugar syrup to change its concentration from 30% to 25%?

35kg - a mass of sugar syrup

30% of 35kg it's a mass of sugar

30% = 30 : 100 = 0.3

30% of 35kg = 0.3 · 35kg = 10.5kg - a mass of sugar

Add xkg water. Then we have (35 + x)kg of sugar syrup and still 10.5kg of sugar.

10.5kg is 25% of (35 + x)kg .

(35 + x) -- 100%

10.5  -- 25%     <em>multiply both sides by 4</em>

42   -- 100%

Therefore we have the equation:

35 + x = 42      <em>subtract 35 from both sides</em>

x = 7

<h3>Answer: We should add 7kg of water.</h3>

Find the equation of a straight line that passes through the points(-2,10) and (4,14)​
koban [17]

Answer:

y = \frac{2}{3}x + 11\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line is: y = mx+c where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of a line.

Slope = \frac{rise}{run}

          = \frac{14-10}{4-(-2)}

          = \frac{4}{6}

          = \frac{2}{3}

To find the y-intercept, we can use one of the points to apply for the equation before finding the y-intercept. I will be using the point (4,14).

y = \frac{2}{3}x + c

14 = \frac{2}{3}×4 + c

14 = 2\frac{2}{3} + c

c = 14-2\frac{2}{3}

c = 11\frac{1}{3}

Thus, the y-intercept is 11\frac{1}{3}.
