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

Ariel left her home at 9 a.m., driving at 45 mph. At 11 a.m. her brother left the home and started after her at 60 mph. At what
Vlada [557]

Answer:

5:00 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the umber of hours

y ----> the total distance in miles

we know that

The distance is equal to the speed multiplied by the time

Find out the distance traveled by Ariel at 11:00 am

11:00 am-09:00 am=2 hours

45(2)=90 miles

so

<em>Ariel's linear equation is</em>

y=45x+90 ----> equation A

<em>Ariel's brother linear equation is</em>

y=60x ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B

60x=45x+90

Solve for x

60x-45x=90

15x=90

x=6\ hours

Adds 11:00 am + 6 hours=17:00 =5:00 pm
