Answer: 0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:
Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color A is black
15% = 15/100 = 0.15 (decimal form)
0.15 A
Sixty percent of the pigment in paint color B is black
0.6 B
An unknown amount of paint color B is mixed with 40 ml of paint color A,
SO:
0.15 (0.40)
0.6 (x-0.40)
x = total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors
The result is a paint that contains 25% (0.25 in decimal form)black pigment (x)
0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
Answer:
a math problem lol
Step-by-step explanation:
let x represent granddaughter and x +2 for grandson and together they = 12
so then we have the equation of x+2+x = 12
combine like terms 2x +2 =12
-2 from both sides to isolate x
2x=10 divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself
so we get x = 5 then add 2 +5=7
so grandson is 7 and granddaughter is 5
81.25 / 125 = 0.65
so 65 %
to check 65% * 125 = 81.25
hope this helps ;)
