Answer:

42%

Step-by-step explanation:

x is for the volume of the  container

the amount filled in the first container=0.30x

the volume of the first container + 50% of the second=(x+x*50%)=1.5 x

the amount of acid in the second container= 1.5x * 50%=0.75x

total amount of acid in the third one =0.3x+0.75x=1.05x

total solution : x+1.5x=2.5x

percentage=1.05x/2.5x= 0.42 or 42%

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

<h2>The factory needs to sell 327 packbacks to make at least 9,800 per week.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that each backpacks is sold for $40.00.

The goal is to make at least $9,800 per week. With this information we can define the inequality

40x -10x \leq 9,800

Where x represents backpacks. Notice that this inequality is about profits, that's why we subtract the cost from the sell price, in this case, the profid margin is $30.00 per backpack, so

30x\leq 9,800

Solving for x

x\leq \frac{9800}{30}\\ x \leq 326.67

Therefore, the factory needs to sell 327 packbacks to make at least 9,800 per week.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Carrie left Colorado at 2:45pm CST on Tuesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

The train travels a total of 24 hours to get from Colorado to Illinois, that is, it takes one complete day of travel to get from one city to the other.

So, if Carrie arrives Illinois at 2:45pm CST on Wednesday, she left Colorado exactly one day before that, in the same hour, so she left Colorado at 2:45pm CST on Tuesday.
