Answer:

x is mL of 25% acid and y is mL of 50% acid

We set up 2 equations:

A) x + y = 250

B) .25 x + .50y = .35 * 250 which equals

B) .25x + .50y = 87.50 Multiplying A) by -.5

A) -.5x -.5y = -125 adding the equations we get

-.25x = -37.50

x = 150 mL

y = 100 mL

Solve the equation for x.

liq [111]

Answer:

$x=55$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is $\sqrt{x-6}+3=10$

Group similar terms to get:

$\sqrt{x-6}=10-3$

$\sqrt{x-6}=7$

Square both sides to obtain:

$x-6=7^2$

$x-6=49$

Add 6 to both sides

$x=49+6$

Simplify the right hand side to obtain;

$x=55$
