Let x be the amount of the solution containing 10% of the chemical. Then, the solution with 40% chemical becomes 10 - x. The equation for balancing the chemical content of the solution is,
0.10x + 0.40(10 - x) = 0.25(10)
The value of x is 5. Hence, the druggist should mix 5 ounces of each. There are 2.5 ounces of chemical in the final mixture.

Rewrite the expression in the form x
Serga [27]

Answer:

See below (I hope this helps!)

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing exponential terms of the same base, we can simply subtract the exponents, therefore:

\frac{x^{6} }{x^{8} } = x^{(6-8)} = x^{-2}

Answer:

88 score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

To get a B in​ math, Alexandria Pappas must<u> average 80</u> on five tests.

Scores on the first four tests were <em>82​, 74​, 82​, and 74.</em>

Question asked:

What is the lowest score that she can get on the last test and still get a​ B?

Solution:

Let lowest score she can get on the last test = x

As we know:

Average=\frac{Sum\ of \ observations}{Number\ of\ observations}\\ \\ 80=\frac{82+74+82+74+x}{5} \\ \\

By cross multiplication:-

80\times5=312+x \\ \\400=312+x\\Subtracting\ both\ sides\ by\ 312\\400-312=312-312+x\\88=x

Thus, she can get 88 score on the last test to get a B in​ math.
