Answer:

32 and 48 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 25% solution is x liters, then 50% solution is (80 - x) liters.

Acid content is going to be same:

0.25x + 0.5(80 - x) = 80*0.4
0.25x - 0.5x + 40 = 32
0.25x = 8
x = 8/0.25
x = 32 liters

So 32 liters of 25% solution and 80 - 32 = 48 liters of 50% solution

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\lim_{x \to \infty}\frac{1-cos4x}{1-cos2x}= \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{(1-cos4x)'}{(1-cos2x)'}= \lim_{x \to 0}\frac{4sin4x}{2sin2x}= \lim_{x \to 0}\frac{2*2sin2xcos2x}{sin2x}\\ = \lim_{x \to 0}4cos2x\\ =4$

You are selling tickets to a play. You have sold (3t+2) tickets for $5 each and (2t+5) tickets for $7 each. Write an expression

aliya0001 [1]

Given that the number of tickets that are sold for $5 is (3t+2) tickets.

The number of tickets that are sold for $7 is (2t+5) tickets.

We need to determine the expression that represents the total number of tickets sold and the simplified expression.

Total number of tickets sold:

The expression for (3t+2) tickets sold for $5 is given by

$5(3t+2)$

The expression for (2t+5) tickets sold for $7 is given by

$7(2t+5)$

The expression for the total number of tickets sold is given by

$5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

Thus, the expression that represents the total number of tickets sold is $5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

Simplified expression:

We need to simplify the expression $5(3t+2)+7(2t+5)$

Hence, let us multiply the terms within the bracket.

Thus, we get;

$15t+10+14t+35$

Adding the like terms, we have,

$29t+45$

Thus, the simplified expression is $29t+45$

TEA [102]

The first 3 rows are proportional

because when you divide the earning by car washed they all have the same unit rate of 9.5/ to answer the second part you multiply 9.5 by 88. you'll get $836
