Answer:
The amount of water need to be added is 5 liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's "x" be amount of water in (liters) added to 15 liters of 40% of sugar syrup.
Now find the amount of sugar syrup = 40% of 15
= 0.4 × 15
The amount of sugar syrup = 6 Liters
To dilute 30% we need to find amount of water to be added.
So,
30% of (15 + x) = 6
0.3 × (15 + x) = 6
4.5 + 0.3x = 6
0.3x = 6 - 4.5
0.3x = 1.5
Dividing both sides, by 0.3, we get
x = 5
So, the amount of water need to be added is 5 liters.
Answer:
7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry if I'm wrong. I got confused because you put 56+3 twice.×= 63
56+3=59=x-4 (this is with subtraction sign)
I didnt know if that a subtracting or negative so here both
56+3=x-4 (this is with the negative sign)
x= -14.75
X+y=155. Y= -x+155
1.50x +4(-x+155)= 520
1.50x-4x+620=520
-2.5x =-100
X= 40. Y=110
