How many liters of pure acid must be added to 3 liters of 50% acid solution to obtain a 75% acid solution?

If there are 3 liters of 50% acid solution, there must be 1.5 liters of pure acid and 1.5 liters of another liquid.

As it is, 1.5/x = 1/2, where x = total liters of both liquids (here, 3). We use 1.5 because that's how much we have of the other liquid.

If we set 1.5/x = 1/4, x = 6. This is 3 liters more than our original solution, and we only added pure acid.

Our answer is 3 liters of pure acid.

Find the value of x, y, and z in the figure below:<br> ہ<br> 2y<br> IN<br> 2x<br> 90°<br> t
natima [27]

Answer:

x=30°

y=15°

z=150°

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+90+x=180°

2x=180°-90°

x=90/3

x=30

2y=x

y= 30/2

y=15°

2y°+z°=180°

2(15°)+z°=180°

z=180°-30°

z=150°

Hope it helps! :)
