A student has a 2% salt water solution and a 7% salt water solution. To best imitate salt water at a local beach, he needs 1 lit
FromTheMoon [43]

Let

x-------> the amount of 2\% solution

y--------> the amount of 7\% solution

we know that

2\%=0.02\\7\%=0.07\\3.5\%=0.035

so

x+y=1

y=1-x -------> equation A

0.02x+0.07y=0.035 -------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

0.02x+0.07(1-x)=0.035

0.02x+0.07-0.07x=0.035

0.05x=0.035

x=0.7\ liters

find the value of y

y=1-x

y=1-0.7=0.3\ liters

therefore

The student need 0.7\ liters of 2\% solution and 0.3\ liters of 7\% solution

<u>the answer is</u>

A) The percent values were written incorrectly in the equation

B) The amount of 7% solution should be written as 1 – x, not x – 1.

Write the quadratic function in standard form.<br><br> y=2(x - 3)² +9
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

y = 2x^2 - 12x + 27

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute the power</u>

y = 2(x - 3)² + 9

y = 2(x^2 - 6x + 9) + 9

y = 2x^2 - 12x + 18 + 9

y = 2x^2 - 12x + 27

Answer: y = 2x^2 - 12x + 27

A 5-gallon jug of cleaning solution contains 6% bleach. How much pure water should be added to it to dilute to 4% bleach?
mihalych1998 [28]
Let's bear in mind that 5 gallons with a solution of 6% bleach, contains some water plus some bleach, how much bleach?  well, is just 6% of 5 gallons or namely (6/100) * 5 gallons, or 0.30 gallons.

if we use "x" gallons of water, well pure water has no bleach, so is 0% bleach, and it has a (0/100) * x or 0x gallons of bleach.

the mixture will be say "y" gallons, and is 4% bleach, so (4/100) * y is 0.04y gallons in the mixture of bleach.

\bf \begin{array}{lcccl}&#10;&\stackrel{gallons}{quantity}&\stackrel{\textit{\% of bleach}}{amount}&\stackrel{\textit{gallons of bleach}}{amount}\\&#10;&------&------&------\\&#10;\textit{pure water}&x&0.00&0x\\&#10;\textit{6\% solution}&5&0.06&0.3\\&#10;-----&------&------&------\\&#10;mixture&y&0.04&0.04y&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x+5=\boxed{y}\\&#10;0x+0.3=0.04y\\&#10;---------\\&#10;0.3=0.04\left( \boxed{x+5} \right)&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;0.3=0.04x+0.2\implies 0.1=0.04x\implies \cfrac{0.1}{0.04}=x\implies 2.5=x
