Answer:

4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let quantity of 5% be x liters and of 17.5% be y liters

x+y=20 hence y=20-x

Introducing percentages

0.05x+0.175(20-x)=0.15*20

0.05x+3.5-0.175x=3

-0.125x=-0.5

x=\frac {-0.5}{-0.125}=4

Therefore, y=20-x=20-4=16

You need 4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5% to achieve 20 liters of 15% acid solution

If you roll a die what is the probability of rolling a 2 or 6?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

\frac{2}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that, a die is rolled once.

As, the total outcomes can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

So, the probability to obtain 2 is \frac{1}{6} and the probability to obtain 6 is \frac{1}{6}.

Thus, the probability of rolling 2 or 6 after rolling a die once will be \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{6} i.e. \frac{2}{6}.

Hence, the probability of rolling a 2 or 6 is \frac{2}{6}.
