Let's write 2 equations from the two statements given.
<em>Sarah spent 10 dollars on both oranges and apples</em>
<em />
Let the price of oranges be "x" and price of apples be "y", thus we can write:
Oranges cost 3 less than apples, thus we can say:
We can substitute this into the first equation and solve for y:
Thus, let's solve for x now,
We want the price of oranges (x), thus,
<em>Price of Oranges = $3.50</em>
Answer:
70%

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 25% solution is x liters, then 50% solution is (80 - x) liters.
<u>Acid content is going to be same:</u>
- 0.25x + 0.5(80 - x) = 80*0.4
- 0.25x - 0.5x + 40 = 32
- 0.25x = 8
- x = 8/0.25
- x = 32 liters
So 32 liters of 25% solution and 80 - 32 = 48 liters of 50% solution
Your answer is correct!! 2/3
The quotient is approximately a little more than ...
... 32000/500 = 64
The actual quotient is 65 249/488 = 65.5102...
