Answer: 4.8 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x liter of water is added with y liter of 25% beach solution.

Thus, According to the question,

x + y = 12  -------(1)

0% of x + 25 % of y = 15 % of 12

25 % of y = 15% of 12

25 y = 15\times 12

y = \frac{180}{25}

y = \frac{36}{5}

Put this value in equation (1),

We get,

x + \frac{36}{5} = 12

x = 12-\frac{36}{5}

x =\frac{60-36}{5}

x =\frac{24}{5}

Therefore, the quantity of water =  x =\frac{24}{5}=4.8\text{ liter}

And, the quantity of 25% bleach solution = y =\frac{36}{5}=7.2\text{ liter}

two sides of a triangle measures 25 cm + 35 CM which of the following would be the measure of the third side
Oxana [17]
Assuming those are the legs of the triangle and that you need to find the hypotenuse... I would use the formula: a^2+b^2=c^2
It doesn't matter what a and b are, just fill it in.
25^2+35^2=c^2
625+1225=c^2
1850=c^2
Take the square root of 1850, it isn't a perfect square so I got: 43.01.
If you want, just round it to 43, idc. 
So, if I were to check my work, I would need to remember that the hypotenuse is the longest side.
Since 43 is the hypotenuse, it is the longest side.
