Complete Question: A 25% vinegar solution is combined with triple the amount of a 45% vinegar solution and a 5% vinegar solution resulting in 20 milliliters of a 30% vinegar solution.

Write an equation that models this situation and explain what each part represents in the situation. Then solve the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the volume of the 45% vinegar solution be x litres ,

the volume of the 25% vinegar solution be 3x

and the volume of the 5% vinegar solution be y

summation of all gives,

x+3x+y = 20

4x + y = 20

subtracting 4x from both sides to make y the subject of the equation, we have;

y = 20 - 4x

To the concentration:

substituting for the value of x and y into equation x + 3x + y = 20, we have,

.45x + .25(3x) + .05(20-4x) = .3(20)

multiplying through by 100  to make whole figures we have;

45x + 25(3x) + 5(20-4x) = 600

45x + 75x + 100 - 20x = 600

120x - 20x + 100 = 600

100x + 100 = 600

subtracting 100 from both sides, we have;

100x = 600 - 100

100x = 500

dividing both sides by 100,

x = 5.

How do you find the radius of a circle with a circumference of 12pi
sergejj [24]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is 2\pir\pi r, so 12\pi=2\pi r\\12=2r\\r=6.  We can use this because the area of a circle is \pi r^2.  Thus, \pi*6^2=36\pi.

They are both right legs. Use a^2+b^2=c^2.

A= 28^2 B=45^2

A= 784 B= 2025. 2025+ 784= 2809 (radical 2809) To simplified is 53
