Answer:
There are 3.2 liters of the 20% solution to be mixed with 4.8 liters of the 70% solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = liters of 20% acid solution
y = liters of 70% acid solution
x + y = 8 This represents the total number of liters
and
.2x + .7y = .5(8) This represents the concentration of the solution
Since x+y=8, y = 8-x
We can use substitution.
.2x + .7(8-x) = 4
.2x + 5.6 - .7x = 4
Combining like terms
-0.5x = - 1.6
Dividing by -0.5
x = 3.2
Answer:
3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 9 students total and the ratio is 2:7 for walk home to ride bus then the answer would you would divide 2 from 7 which can be written as 7/2 then you would get your answer. Plus if the question says how many times the number... that means division:).
HOPE THIS HELPS!!:)
6. 14/8=1.75
28/16=1.75
They are equal to each other
