The equation is 0.1x + 0.15(50-x)=1.20(50)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you need 50ml of 12% alcohol solution.

You have 10% and 15% alcohol solutions.

Take volume of 10% alcohol solution to be x ml

Take volume of 15% alcohol solution to be y ml

Form equations;

x+y=50 ml--------------------------equation 1

0.1x +0.15 y= 12% of 50

0.1x+0.15y=6-----------------------equation 2

Now you have simultaneous equations, use a graph tool to solve for values of x and y as attached.

or use the mixture equation the get value of x

0.1x + 0.15(50-x)=1.20(50)

The values of x and y are ;

(x,y) (30,20) which means;

y is 20 ml of 15% alcohol

x is 30 ml of 10% alcohol

What percent of a dozen is 3
Margaret [11]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages are one of several ways of describing quantities' relationships to one another. Specifying one number as a percentage of another means specifying the fraction of the second quantity the first comprises. The percentage value is the number that, divided by 100, equals that fraction. To express the percentage as a whole number, round it accordingly. Some applications, however, don't require percentages as exact whole figures.

Divide the first number the second. For instance, if you want to find what percentage 43 is out of 57, divide 43 by 57 to get 0.754386.
