Answer:
24 g
Step-by-step explanation:
We first find the mass of 24 % alcohol in 400 g of hand sanitizer. Let x be the mass of alcohol. So, x/400 × 100 % = 24 %
x/400 = 0.24
x = 0.24 × 400
= 96 g
The mass of the other chemicals is thus 400 g - 96 g = 304 g
We now find the mass of 30 % alcohol in 400 g of hand sanitizer. Let y be the mass of alcohol. So, y/400 × 100 % = 30 %
y/400 = 0.30
y = 0.30 × 400
= 120 g
The mass of the other chemicals is thus 400 g - 120 g = 280 g
The mass of other chemicals that needs to be evaporated is thus 304 g - 280 g = 24 g
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3x + 30 + x = 10 + 2x + 5x + 2 , simplify both sides
4x + 30 = 7x + 12 ( subtract 7x from both sides )
- 3x + 30 = 12 ( subtract 30 from both sides )
- 3x = - 18 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 6
Answer:
C. 1 lb. 9 oz.
Step-by-step explanation:
A number is equal to 3 times a smaller number. Also, the sum of the smaller number and 4 is the larger number. The situation is graphed on the coordinate plane below, where x represents the smaller number and y represents the larger number.
c,
y=3x and y=x+4
