Answer:
The amount of water must be added to this task = 60 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let amount of water added = x 
Then from the given conditions
A chemist would like to dilute a 90-cc solution that is 5% acid to one that is 3% acid. So
90 (0.05) = 0.03 ( 90 + x )
4.5 = 2.7 + 0.03 x
0.03 x = 1.8
x = 60 
Therefore the amount of water must be added to this task = 60 
Answer: 4x+2=10
Step-by-step explanation:
Check the picture below.
recall that in a square, all sides are equal, so if we make b = a, then we get that for one side, also recall that the area of a rectangle is length*width, so in this case,
X+y= 26 and 4.75x + 2.25y= 83.50
y=26-x( substitute this into second equation for y and solve for x)
4.75x + 2.25(26-x)= 83.50
4.75x + 58.5-2.25x= 83.50
x= 10
Now solve for y by substituting your answer for x
10+ y= 26
y=16
Therefore, 16 tickets were purchased for kids and 10 for adults.
