a = amount (in oz) of solution A
b = amount of solution B
The scientist wants a mixture of 110 oz, so
a + b = 110
Solution A consists of 65% salt, so each ounce of solution A contributes 0.65 oz of salt; similarly, each ounce of B contributes 0.9 oz. The mixture is supposed to consist of 75% salt, which amounts to 0.75 * (110 oz) = 82.5 oz of salt. So
0.65 a + 0.9 b = 82.5
Solve for a and b:
b = 110 - a
0.65 a + 0.9 (110 - a) = 82.5
0.65 a + 99 - 0.9 a = 82.5
0.25 a = 16.5
a = 66 ==> b = 44

Answer: maximum height of the football = 176 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to determine the maximum height of the football from the ground. From the function given,
h(t) = -16t^2+96t +32, it is a quadratic function. Plotting graph if h will result to a parabolic shape. The maximum height of the football = the vertex of the parabola. This vertex is located at time, t
t = -b/2a
b = 96 and a= -16
t = -b/2a = -96/2×-16= 3
Substituting t = 3 into the function if h
h(t) = -16×3^2+96×3 +32
=-16×9 + 96×3 +32
= -144+ 288+32
=176 feet
18 - 7x = -20.52.5 = 7xx = 5/14 (c)
