Answer:

4 liters of 5% solution and 16 liters of 17.5% solution we need.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that x liters of 5% solution and y liters of 17.5% solution are taken.

So, x + y = 20 ........ (1)

As the final solution is of 15%, so we can write

⇒ 5x + 17.5y = 300 ......... (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2)  we get,  

17.5y - 5y = 200

⇒ 12.5y = 200

⇒ y = 16 liters

Hence, x = 20 - y = 4 liters.

Therefore, 4 liters of 5% solution and 16 liters of 17.5% solution we need. (Answer)

Answer:

4 liters of 5% solution and 16 liters of 17.5% solution we need.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that x liters of 5% solution and y liters of 17.5% solution are taken.

So, x + y = 20 ........ (1)

As the final solution is of 15%, so we can write

\frac{\frac{5x}{100}+ \frac{17.5y}{100}}{x + y} = \frac{15}{100}

⇒ 5x + 17.5y = 300 ......... (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2)  we get,  

17.5y - 5y = 200

⇒ 12.5y = 200

⇒ y = 16 liters

Hence, x = 20 - y = 4 liters.

Therefore, 4 liters of 5% solution and 16 liters of 17.5% solution we need. (Answer)

The measures of two complementary angles are described by the expression(13y+12) and (20y+12). Find the measures of angles​
Pachacha [2.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angles means that both of them together = 90

13y +12 + 20y + 12 = 90

add all y together and numbers together

33y + 24 = 90

solve for y

33y= 66. y= 2

now let's get the measurements of the angles

13(2) + 12= 38

20(2) + 12= 52
