5x(2y-3)-(y+8)=13 I believe this is correct
Answer:
155 +
+ 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable x would represent the number/value we don't know, and in this case, we don't know what number is raised to the third power. This being said, x would represent that number.
The question, although worded a bit confusingly, asks to add 155, the number (x) to the exponent of 3, and 14. Mathematically, this would be 155 +
+ 14.
Let x be ml of 5% soln.
let 500-x be ml of 25% soln.
.
x*.05=.05x
(500-x)*.25=125-.25x
500*.20=100
.
.05x+125-.25x=100
-.2x=-25
x=-25/-.2
x=125 ml of 5% soln.
500-x=375 ml of 25% soln.
.
Check:
125*.05= 6.25
375*.25=93.75
