Given:

A solution of 60% fertilizer is to be mixed with a solution of 21% fertilizer to form 234 liters of a 43% solution.

To find:

The quantity of the 60% solution in the mixture.

Solution:

Let x be the quantity of the 60% solution and y be the quantity of the 21% solution.

Quantity of mixture is 234. So,

x+y=234

x=234-y                  ...(i)

The mixture has 43% fertilizer. So,

\dfrac{60}{100}x+\dfrac{21}{100}y=\dfrac{43}{100}\times 234

Multiply both sides by 100.

60x+21y=10062            ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

60(234-y)+21y=10062

14040-60y+21y=10062

-39y=10062-14040

-39y=-3978

Divide both sides by -39.

\dfrac{-39y}{-39}=\dfrac{-3978}{-39}

y=102

Putting this value in (i), we get

x=234-102

x=132

Therefore, 132 liters of the 60% solution must be used.

Seven pizzas are shared equally between three friends. What fraction of pizza does each friend get? Write your answer as a mixed
vredina [299]

Seven pizzas: 7 pizzas

Shared between 3 friends: 7 pizzas / 3 friends

Simplify the fraction:

7 / 3

(3 goes into 7 twice, 7 - 6 = 1)

2 1/3

The fraction of pizza that each friend gets is 2 1/3.

Hope this helps!! :)

I'm not sure what you are looking for but I'll answer this question based on what I think is needed.

Given:
Day 1: 130 
Day 2: 130 x 4 = 520
Day 3: 520 x 4 = 2,080

The exponential equation of this problem is:
V(n) = 130(4)^n

Where n is the number of days since the video was first shown.

Let us assume that 10 days have past. Total view would be:

V(n) = 130(4)^n

V(10) = 130(4)^10
V(10) = 130(1,048,576)
V(10) = 136,314,880

After 10 days, there are more than 136 Million views of the viral video.
