<u>ANSWER: </u>

110ML of 35% acid solution must be mixed with 10ML of 95% solution to obtain 120ML of 40% solution.

<u>SOLUTION:   </u>

First, set up table. fill in the unknowns with variables x and y.  The table is attached below.

From the table shown below, we can easily set up the two equations.  

Sum of values of two acids = Value of mixture  

0.35x + 0.95y = 48  

For convenience, we will multiply the entire equation by 100,

35 x + 95y = 4800     ------ (1)  

Now, Sum of amounts of each acid = Amount of mixture  

x + y = 120    --------- (2)

Multiply eqn 2  with 35 for easy calculation and derive the equation into one variable.

35 = 35x + 35y = 4200  

Subtracting equation (2) from (1),  we get

0 + 60y = 600  

Thus, 60y = 600  

y = \frac{600}{60} = 10

Substituting y = 10 in (2),

35x + 35(10) = 4200  

35x + 350 = 4200  

35x = 4200 - 350  

35x = 3850  

x = \frac{3850}{35} = 110

So, we have x = 110 and y = 10

We can conclude that 110ML of 35% acid solution must be mixed with 10ML of 95% solution to obtain 120 ML of 40% solution.

24 times 4 tons 2 pounds
Iteru [2.4K]
Ayy, so your question is kinda weirdly worded. But I think your asking what is 24 multiplied by 4 tons and 2 pounds.

Well, 2 pounds is equal to 0.00090718 tons.
There is a converter here: https://www.bing.com/search?q=pounds+to+tons&qs=AS&pq=pounds+to+tons&sc=8-14&sp=1&cvid=7BC591B75A8B4......

But now we have 0.00090718 tons as well as 4 tons. Add those together and you get 4.00090718. Now, multiply this by 24. You get: 96.02177232.

If the geometric mean of a and 28 is 16 sqrt 7 find a
kozerog [31]

Answer:

a = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric mean of 2 numbers a and b is \sqrt{ab} , then

\sqrt{28a} = 16\sqrt{7} ( square both sides )

28a = (16\sqrt{7} )² = 1792 ( divide both sides by 28 )

a = 64
