Answer:

65.2 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity 336 milliliters is the 100% of the solution. We can represent this information on a table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100%

we are told that 19.4% of this solution is acid, and we need to know how many milliliters represents this percentage. I will call the number of milliliters of acid on the solution 'x', and updating the last table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100

     x             ⇔            19.4%

We can solve this problem for 'x' using the<u> rule of three</u> which is to multiply the cross quantities on the table (336 by 19.4) and then divide by the remaining amount (100):

x = 336(19.4)/100

x = 6,518.4/100

x = 65.184

which rounding to the nearest tenth is: 65.2 milliliters

Solve the system <br> 2x+y=-3 <br> -2y=6+4x
ANEK [815]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Write out the 2 equations:

2x + y = -3

-2y = 6+4x

-You then pick a variable that you want to solve for. I chose to solve for y because it would be a bit easier.

-2y = 6 + 4x

-Divide both sides by -2 to isolate the variable

(-2y) / -2 = (6 + 4x) / -2

-it comes out to y = -3 -2x

-Now that you have the y you can plug in the value into the second equation.

2x + y = -3   --->   2x + (-3 -2x) = -3

This can be simplified to:

2x - 3 - 2x = -3

The 2x's cancel out because there is a +2x and a -2x. You are left with a

-3 = -3. If you add 3 to both sides of the equation you end up with 0 = 0, which can be simplified to just 0.

Please help me with my homework
Alona [7]

so for A it is 16 times as large because the area is 3*3 which is 9 but since it is a triangle the area is halved and is 4.5 and divide 72 by 4.5 which gives us 16

then for b I believe that the scale factor is 4

and for C it is asking for the bottom side of the scaled copy not of triangle A and 4*3=12 so the bottom is 12

ok now its complete =)
