Verizon [17]2 years ago

Answer:

120 liters of the 10% solution should be mixed with 60 liters of a 25% solution to  get a 15% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the quantity of 10% solution

Given that we need determine many liters of a 10% solution should be mixed with 60 liters of a 25% solution to  get a 15% solution.

As

10% of x = 0.1x

60 liters of a 25%  = 60 × 0.25

Thus,

The equation becomes

0.1x+60\times \:0.25=0.15\left(x+60\right)

Multiply both sides by 100  

0.1x\times \:100+15\times \:100=0.15\left(x+60\right)\times \:100  

10x+1500=15\left(x+60\right)

10x+1500=15x+900

Subtract 1500 from both sides

10x+1500-1500=15x+900-1500

Simplify

10x=15x-600

Subtract 15x from both sides

10x-15x=15x-600-15x

Simplify

-5x=-600

Divide both sides by -5

\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{-600}{-5}

Simplify

x=120

Therefore,

  • 120 liters of the 10% solution should be mixed with 60 liters of a 25% solution to  get a 15% solution.

Let f(x)=3x-2 and g(x)=x^2+4 find f(g(12)
skad [1K]

Answer:

442

Step-by-step explanation:

Find g(12) first.

12^2 + 4 = 144 + 4 = 148.

Now find f(148).

(3 x 148) -2 = 444-2 = 442.

A prism with a square base has a height of 15cm and a volume of 735cm3. Find the length of each edge of the base.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The length of each edge of the base is 7cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a prism with square base is given by:

V = l^{2}h

In which l is the length of each edge of the base and h is the height.

A prism with a square base has a height of 15cm and a volume of 735cm3.

This means that V = 735, h = 15

So

V = l^{2}h

735 = 15l^{2}

l^{2} = \frac{735}{15}

l^{2} = 49

l = \pm \sqrt{49}

Length is a positive measure. So

l = 7

Volume in cm³, so the length of each edge is in cm.

The length of each edge of the base is 7cm.

Lucy is financing $370,000 to purchase a house. How much money will she save over the life of a 30-year, fixed-rate loan by buyi
IRISSAK [1]
Lucy would save $114.
Step 1: Multiply 6.175 x 30 = 185.25
Step 2: Divide 370,000/185.25 = 1,997
Step 3: Repeat Steps 1&2 but with (6.55 x 30) and divide 370,000/196.5 = 1,883.
Step 4: Subtract 1,997 - 1,883 = 114
Step 5: She will save $114 with points versus without.

Tema [17]

Answer:

(3x+5y)/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount is 150+250=400

We then do (3x+5y)/2 × 1/400

This equals (3x+5y)/800

We multiply that  by 100 giving us the final answer.
