The expression x−y equals 0.7 if x and y have certain values. Evaluate the following expressions with the same values of x and y

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

-0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

$x-y=0.7$

You can choose any digits you wish for $x$ and $y$ but the difference must be 0.7. I chose 1.0 and 0.3.

$x=1\\y=0.3\\x-y=0.7\\\\y-x=\\0.3-1=\\-0.7$

johnathan needs 70 liters of a 50% alcohol solution. he has a 30% solution and an 80% solution available. How many liters of the

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

28 l of 80%

42 l of 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Target is 70 l of 50% solution

It will contain 70*0.5= 35 l of alcohol

x l of 80% solution and y l of 30% solution mixed to get the target solution

x+y=70 is the equation for total volume, and

0.8x+0.3y= 35 is the equation for the alcohol content. Solving this:

y= 70-x
0.8x+0.3*(70-x) = 35
0.8x+21- 0.3x= 35
0.5x= 35-21
0.5 x= 14
x= 14/0.5
x=28 l of 80% solution

then

y= 70-x= 70 -28 l= 42 l of 30% solution
