Answer:
A. 605 mL of the 35% solution
B. 55 mL of the 95% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that, you need 660 mL of a 40% alcohol solution. On hand, you have 35% alcohol mixture. You also have a 95% alcohol mixture.
Let x and y be the amount of 35% alcohol solution and 95% alcohol solution (in mL) respectively.
So,
Amount equation: ...(1)
Alcohol equation : ...(2)
On solving (1) and (2), we get
Now, substitute y=55 in (1).
Therefore, we need 605 mL of the 35% solution and 55 mL of the 95% solution.
Answer:
The speed with which Ryan was rowing was 4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
With a small boat, Ryan wants to row towards an island and come back at a speed of x mph and the island is 20 miles away from him.
Therefore, total 20 + 20 = 40 miles he rowed for 5 hours.
On the way to the island, there was a wind of 4 mph in the direction of his motion and on the way back also there was a wind of 4 mph in the direction of his motion.
So, in the total journey, he has a speed of (x + 4) mph.
Therefore,
⇒ x + 4 = 8
⇒ x = 4 mph.
Therefore, the speed with which Ryan was rowing was 4 mph. (Answer)
