Answer:
It takes 50 minutes to paint the whole box
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Write an equation using equal fractions to represent this situation. Use a box to represent the total time it takes to paint the bookcase.
Wilson paints 40% of a bookcase in 20 minutes.
For the total box
40% = 20 minutes
100% = x
40 × x = 100 × 20
x = 100 × 20/40
x = 50 minutes

Answer:
- 33 1/3 liters of 30%
- 16 2/3 liters of 45%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the liters of 45% solution needed. Then the amount of HCl in the mix is ...
0.45x +0.30(50 -x) = 0.35(50)
0.15x = 0.05(50) . . . . . simplify, subtract 0.30(50)
x = (0.05/0.15)(50) = 50/3 = 16 2/3 . . . liters of 45% HCl
33 1/3 liters of 30% and 16 2/3 liters of 45% HCl are needed.

<em>Comment on the solution</em>
You may notice that the general solution to a mixture problem of this sort is that the fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is ...
(mix % - low %) / (high % - low %) = (.35 -.30) / (.45 -.30) = .05/.15 = 1/3
Answer:
-2/3
