Answer:
18 men attended the baseball game, and 30 women attended the baseball game.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of men in attendance be x and the number of women in attendance be x+12.
No. of men + <em>No. of women</em> = <u>48 </u>
x +<em> x + 12</em> = <u>48</u>
2x + 12 = 48
2x = 48 - 12
= 36
x = 36 ÷ 2
x = 18
x+12: 18 + 12 = 30
Answer:
1 hour and 15 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
$120 - $45 = $75
$75 ÷ $60 = 1.25 hours or and 1 hour and 15 minutes
Answer:
1: L = 5
W = 7
2: A = lw
3: 35
4: 18
5: You have to add them up because it is 1 shape broken up into different parts.
6: 53
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
26% is (26-20)/(50-20) = 6/30 = 1/5 of the way between 20% and 50%. That means 1/5 of the solution is 50% acid.
50% acid: 1/5 · 100 mL = 20 mL
20% acid: 100 mL -20 mL = 80 mL
Delbert must mix 80 mL of 20% acid and 20 mL of 50% acid.
_____
Maybe you'd like to see an equation. Let x represent the amount of 50% acid required. Then 100-x is the amount of 20% acid needed. The amount of acid in the mix is ...
0.50(x) +0.20(100 -x) = 0.26(100)
(0.50 -0.20)x = (0.26 -0.20)100 . . . . subtract 0.20(100)
x = (0.26 -0.20)/(0.50 -0.20)×100 = 20
This last expression should look a lot like the one we started with in this answer. It shows you how you can almost write down the answer to mixture problems without a lot of work.
