Answer:
B) 38.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer to your question is 43.8 mL of acid.
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Total volume = 362 ml
12.1 % is acid
The Volume of acid = ?
Process
1.- Use the rule of three and cross multiplication to solve this problem.
362 ml ------------------- 100%
x ------------------- 12.1 %
x = (12.1 x 362) / 100
x = 4380.2 / 100
x = 43.802 ml
2.- Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
43.802 only consider the first decimal
43.8 mL
3.- Conclusion
A 12.1% solution of acid has 43.8 mL of acid.
The equation seems to be
1
-------- = 5 ^ (x + 4)
25
In that case, this is the solution, stept by step:
1) factor 25: 25 = 5^2
1
=> ----------- = 5^(x + 4)
5^2
2) invert 5^2
=> 5^(-2) = 5^(x+4)
3) Given that the bases are equal, the exponents also have to be equal:
=> - 2 = x + 4
3) transpose +4:
=> - 2 - 4 = x
=> x = - 6
Answer: - 6
