Answer:

0.25 L at 0.1% and 0.75 L at 0.22%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to:

         percent                                 quantity

  Salt solution # 1 0.1                            x L

 Salt solution # 2 0.22                     (1 - x) L

    Mixture 0.19%                                    1

We are left with the following equation:

0.1 * x + 0.22 * (1-x) = 0.19 * 1

solving:

0.1 * x + 0.22-0.22 * x = 0.19

0.1 * x- 0.22 * x = 0.19 - 0.22

-0.12 * x = -0.03

x = -0.03 / -0.12

x = 0.25

Which means

Salt solution # 1 0.1% 0.25 L should be used and for salt solution # 2 0.22% 0-75 (1 - 0.25) L

An x-method chart shows the product a c at the top of x and b at the bottom of x. Above the chart is the expression a x squared
Bond [772]

Answer:

The other factor is (x + 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

If x - 10 is a  factor of x^2 - 8x - 20 then we must find another factor that includes +2x, so that we have -10x + 2x = -8x.  That factor is (x + 2):

x^2 - 8x - 20 = (x - 10)(x + 2)

As a test, multiply -10 and +2.  We get -20, matching the constant of the given polynomial.  Also, -10x + 2x = -8x, another match.

Muffins cost $3.00 per dozen.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

I agree with both of them

Step-by-step explanation:

A dozen is 12 muffins. Therefore, you pay $3.00 for 12 muffins.

We know that you pay $3.00 for 12 muffins we need to find out how much EACH muffin cost. For that we need to divide $3.00 by 12 which is 0.25.

Now we need to know how much it will cost us for 16 muffins. We use our equation 16*0.25 which is 4. Elena said she will pay 4 so she is right.

Andre said he will buy 8 muffins so we use our equation again 8*0.25 which is 2. He said he will pay 2 so he is right.
