Answer:

19% alcohol solution = 65 ounces

37% alcohol solution = 25 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

19% alcohol solution = x

37% alcohol solution = y

x + y = 90 (1)

0.19x + 0.37y = 90*0.24

0.19x + 0.37y = 21.60 (2)

from (1)

x = 90 - y

Substitute into (2)

0.19x + 0.37y = 21.60

0.19(90-y) + 0.37y = 21.60

17.1 - 0.19y + 0.37y = 21.60

- 0.19y + 0.37y = 21.60 - 17.1

0.18y = 4.5

y = 4.5/0.18

y = 25 ounces

x + y = 90 (1)

x + 25 = 90

x = 90 - 25

x = 65 ounces

Dave has 10 poker chips, 6 of which are red and the other 4 of which are white. Dave likes to stack his chips and flip them over
Marina86 [1]

The number of 10 chips stacks that Dave can make if two stacks are not considered distinct is 110.

The solution

To get the symmetric stacks, one has to subtract the symmetric stacks to know the ones that are asymmetric.

The symmetric are flipped. Given that they are double counted what we have to do is to divide through by 2.

6/2 = 3

10/2 = 5

4/2 = 2

1/2(10C6) - (5C3) + (5C3)

0.5(210-10+10)

= 110

Help me please i do not understand this assignment
sdas [7]

Answer: 164.53%

Step-by-step explanation:

105.3/64=1.6453125

1.6453125*100=164.53125

<u>164.53</u>125=164.53%

Notice the answer is greater than 100 percent. This is because 105.3 is greater than 64, meaning that 105.3 is greater than 100% of 64, so 105.3 will have a greater percent value.
