Answer:

17.5 L

Step-by-step explanation:

x L  of  30% solution , has 0.30x salt

35 L of 25 % solution, has (0.25*35) salt

(35 - x)L  20% solution, has 0.20*(35 - x) salt

Mass of salt before mixing = mass of salt after mixing

0.3x + 0.2(35 - x) = 0.25* 35

0.3 x + 7 - 0.2x = 8.75

0.1x = 8.75 -7

0.1x = 1.75

x = 17.5 L

9 x 10 to the power of 2 how many times as much as 3 x 10 to the -2 power
hjlf

Answer:

  3×10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired factor is found by calculating the ratio of the two numbers:

  k = (9×10^2)/(3×10^-2) = (9/3)×10^(2 -(-2)) = 3×10^4

The first number is 3×10^4 = 30,000 times as much as the second number.
