Answer:

50 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the volume of 20% acid, then:

x (0.20) + 20 (0.45) = (x + 20) (0.30)

0.2x + 9 = 0.3x + 6

3 = 0.1x

x = 30

30 liters of 20% acid are needed, so there will be a total of 50 liters of 30% acid.

The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

One day you warm up for 15 minutes at a pace of 0.1 miles per 25 seconds.

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, like in this case, the direct rule of three can be applied as follow:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then x=\frac{c*b}{a}

First, the simple rule of three can be applied in the following way: if 1 minute equals 60 seconds, 15 minutes equals how many seconds?

seconds=\frac{15 minutes*60 seconds}{1 minute}

seconds= 900

So now you can apply the following rule of three: if in 25 seconds you travel 0.1 miles, in 900 seconds how many miles do you travel?

distance=\frac{900 seconds*0.1 miles }{25 seconds}

distance= 3.6 miles

If you then ride hard for 12 miles, the total distance traveled will be the sum of both:

3.6 miles + 12 miles = 15.6 miles

<u><em>The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.</em></u>

The sales tax is determined by computing a percent of the purchase price. To find the sales tax multiply the purchase price by the sales tax rate. Remember to convert the sales tax rate from a percent to a decimal number. Once the sales tax is calculated, it is added to the purchase price.
