Answer:

  30%: 35 liters

  50%: 35 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired concentration is halfway between the concentrations of available solutions, so the mixture will be equal amounts of each.

  35 liters of 30% acid and 35 liters of 50% acid must be used

_____

If you want to write an equation, it usually works well to let the variable represent the amount of the most concentrated constituent: 50% acid. Then the amount of acid in the final mix is ...

  0.50x +0.30(70 -x) = 0.40(70)

  0.20x +21 = 28 . . . . simplify

  0.20x = 7 . . . . . . . . . subtract 21; next, divide by 0.20

  x = 35 . . . . . . amount of 50% solution (liters)

  70-x = 35 . . . amount of 30% solution (liters)

Please help! I’ve always had trouble with these questions. It’d be a big hand.
deff fn [24]

2. c = 47,000 × n, where c is the cost of n number of bears.

3. a) The cost to ride 5 rides = $20.50, the cost to ride 8 rides = $28.00

The equation for the pattern, C(x) = 15.50 + 2.50 (r - 3), where C is the cost and r is the number of rides.

b) The cost to ride 12 rides = $36.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; To find the cost of one bear, we divide the cost of bears by the number.

If 4 bears cost $188,000, 1 bear costs = \frac{188000}{4} = $47,000.

If 7 bears cost $329,000, 1 bear costs = \frac{329,000}{7} = $47,000.

So the equation is c = 47,000 × n, where c is the cost to buy n bears.

Step 2; For every additional ride, the price increases by $2.50. So the equation for the pattern is C(x) = 13.50 + 2.50 (x - 3).

When the number of rides is 5, C(5) = 15.50 + 2.50 (5-3) = 15.50 + 2.50 (2) = 15.50 + 5.0 = $20.50.

When the number of rides is 8, C(8) = 15.50 + 2.50 (8-3) = 15.50 + 2.50 (5) = 15.50 + 12.50 = $28.00.

When the number of rides is 12, C(12) = 15.50 + 2.50 (12-3) = 15.50 + 2.50 (9) = 13.50 + 22.5 = $36.00.

A water tank in the shape of a rectangular prism has a length of 525 feet, width of 423 feet, and height of 449 feet.
TEA [102]

Answer:

84 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the numbers to get the volume.

5 2/5 * 4 2/3= 25 1/5

25 1/5 * 4 4/9= 112

Then, we can find 3/4 of that.

112*3/4=84.
