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.

Answer:

3rd graph down

Step-by-step explanation:

greens are x and carrots are y in my equations

2x - y >= 3

x + 2y < 4

The first equation is solid and will highlight everything to the right of it because it is a >

the second is dashed and will highlight everything to the left of it because it is a <

the only 2 graphs that show this are 1 and 3

looking at the points you can see that the points for the solid line are both the same so ignore those and go to the dashed lined ones.

on the first graph the points are (0,4)

plugging those into our equation gives us 0 + 2*4 <4

or 8<4 which doesnt make sense making 3 the correct graph

(sorry my answer wasnt posting so i had to start over and make it less detailed, but comment if you need any explanation)

Answer:

s > 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that

> means greater than

< means less than

for example : 2 < 3 means 2 is less than 3

3 >2 means 3 is greater than 2

If he needs to sell more than 200, sales has to be greater than 200 = s > 200
