You answer is: 17
Or otherwise B. is your correct answer.
(9 - 23) = -(14)
| 47 - 16| = 31
31 + (-14) = 17
Answer: Nothing multiplies to 40 and adds to -6, it is impossible
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of ounces of
A = x
B = y
A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 40% salt and Solution B is 55% salt. She wants to obtain 90 ounces of a mixture that is 45% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?
Our system of equations is given as
x + y = 90.... Equation 1
x = 90 - y
40% × x + 55% × y = 45% × 90 ounces
0.4x + 0.55y = 40.5....Equation 2
We substitute 90 - y for x in Equation 2
45-9=36/18=2 I hope this helps
