50 ounces of 15% saline solution contains 0.15*50 = 7.5 ounces of salt.
Let x be the amount of pure water you add to this solution. Then you end up with (x + 50) ounces of this new solution. The amount of salt stays the same.
You want the new solution to have a concentration of 10%. This means you need
7.5 / (x + 50) = 0.1
==> 7.5 = 0.1(x + 50)
==> 7.5 = 0.1x + 5
==> 2.5 = 0.1x
==> 2.5/0.1 = 0.1x/0.1
==> x = 25
Answer:
9(x + 2) = x - 6
9x+18=x-6
9x-x=-18-6
8x=-24
x=-24/8=-3 is your answer
Option c is correct. Use special right triangles and you will findout why. Hint:Use the 45-45-90 special right triangle's properties.
