Is x=1/3 a possible answer? It would be if in fraction form.
or -31.
Nope anyway marry Christmas
120.96! You can round that if you'd like.
Suppose x grams of 8% solution should be mixed to make 100 g of 3% solution.
here we shall have:
the amount of 3% solution in the 100 g will be:
3/100*100=3 grams
the the equation will be, 8% of what quantity becomes 3g?
(8/100)*x=3
hence solving for x we shall have:
0.08x=3
x=3/0.08
x= 37.8 grams
The implication of this is that, when you have 37.5 grams of 8% solution, that will contain 3 of pure chemical and hence when you add more solvent on top of 37.5 g until you reach 100g, that will be 3% solution.
4x² - 49y² = (2x)² - (7y)² = (2x - 7)(2x + 7)
