Answer:

Option B. 1 : 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a lab 30% acid solution and 5% acid solution were mixed to prepare 10% acid solution.

We have to calculate the ratio of both the acids should be mixed to prepare 10% acid solution.

Let the volume of 30% solution was used = x ml

and the volume of 5% acid was used = y ml

Therefore the equation will form as

30%.x + 5%.y = 10%.(x + y)

0.30x + 0.05y = 0.10(x + y)

Now we transfer the similar terms in one side of the equation.

0.30x - 0.10x = 0.10y - 0.05y

0.20x = .05y

\frac{x}{y}= \frac{.05}{0.20}

x : y :: 1 : 4

Therefore solutions will be mixed in a ratio of 1 : 4

Option B. 1 : 4 is the right answer.

Edgar opened a deposit account. In the first month, he made an initial deposit of $3200, and plans to contribute an additional $
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

16 months

Step-by-step explanation:

First I will subtract how much he has already paid.

6000 - 3200 = 2800.

Now to find how many months it will take to get a total of 2800 dollars we must divide.

2800 \div 175

= 16

this means that an additional 16 months will be needed to reach the total of 6000 dollars.

Hope this helps! :)

For the equation 2(4x+10)=8x+k, which value of K will create an equation with infinitely many solutions?
saw5 [17]

Answer:

For given linear equation having infinite many solution the value of k is 20  .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The equation is 2 (4 x + 10) = 8 x + k

For infinite many solution , if the variable cancel out to zero then it will have infinite many solutions

<u>So, from given linear equation</u>

i.e 2 (4 x + 10) = 8 x + k

Or, 2 × 4 x + 2 × 10 = 8 x + k

Or, 8 x + 2 × 10 = 8 x + k

Or, 8 x + 20 = 8 x + k

Or, k + (8 x - 8 x) = 20

Or, k + 0 = 20

∴   k = 20

So, The vale of k  = 20

Hence, For given linear equation having infinite many solution the value of k is 20  . Answer
