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

.......... is the slope zero

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

OK... You have to use this formula: <u>Y2 - Y1</u>

                                                          X2 - X1

  • -2 represents X1
  • 7 represents Y1
  • 2 represents X2
  • -5 represents Y2    

<u>Y2 - Y1</u>

X2 - X1

<u>-5 - 7</u>

2 - - 2

<u>-12</u>

-2

Simplify by dividing both -12 & -2 by 2: <u>-6</u>

                                                                 -1

It's either <u>-6</u> or it's just -6 by itself... Really sorry if I'm wrong...

                -1

What is the next number in the pattern? 7,11,10,14,13
nikdorinn [45]
I think the answer is 17 because the pattern adds 4 then takes away 1 so 14-1=13 13+4=17

Veronica has been saving dimes and quarters she has 110 coins in all and the total value is 18.50 how many dimes and quarters do
Lady_Fox [76]

This problem can be solved by the chicken rabbits method or you can just do simple algebra.

I.) Chicken and rabbits method

First assume all 110 coins are dimes and none are quarters.

We will have a total value of 11 dollars

Now for each dime we switch out for a quarter, we adds 15 cents to the total value.

18.50-11=7.50 dollars

There are 750/15=50 group of 15 cents in the 7 dollars and 50 cents.

This also meant that we need to switch out 50 dimes for 50 quarters.

So we have 50 quarters.

That first method is very good and very quick once you get the hang of it, now I'm going to show you the algebraic way to solve this.

Let's say there are x dimes and y quarters.

Set up equation

x+y=110

10x+25y=1850

Now solve multiply first equation by 10

10x+10y=1100

subtract

15y=750

y=50

Now we set the numbers of quarters to y so the answer is 50 quarters.

I personally recommend using algebra whenever you can because the practice is very important and you will eventually get really fast at setting up and solving equations. The first method is faster in this case but the second is more generalize, hope it helps.
