Solving a system of equations we will see that we need to use <u>40 liters of the 80% acid solution</u>, and the other <u>20 liters are of the 35% acid solution</u>.
<h3>
How many liters of each solution do we need to use?</h3>
First, we need to define the variables:
- x = liters of the 35% acid used.
- y = liters of the 80% acid used.
We know that we want to produce 60 liters of 65% acid, then we have the system of equations:
x + y = 60
x*0.35 + y*0.80 = 60*0.65
(in the second equation we wrote the percentages in decimal form).
To solve this we need to isolate one of the variables in one equation and then replace it in other one, isolating x we get:
x = 60 - y
Replacing that in the other equation:
(60 - y)*0.35 + y*0.80 = 60*0.65
y*(0.80 - 0.35) = 60*(0.65 - 0.35)
y*0.45 = 60*0.30
y = 60*0.30/0.45 = 40
So we need to use <u>40 liters of the 80% acid solution</u>, and the other <u>20 liters are of the 35% acid solution</u>.

Answer:
Samuel can type 40 words per minute
Step-by-step explanation:.
Then how many hours will it take for him to type 2.6 words times 10 to the power of five words
=> 2.6 words time 10 to the power of 5
=> 2.6 x 10^5
=> 2.6 x 100 000
=> 260 000 words in all.
Now, we need to find the number of words Samuel can type in a hour
=> 40 words / minutes , in 1 hour there are 60 minutes
=> 40 x 60
=> 2 400 words /hour
Now, let’s divide the total of words he need to type to the number of words he can type in an hour
=> 260 000 / 2 400
=> 108.33 hours.
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply subtract the smaller number from the bigger number, and divide by 2. Or add the two numbers together and divide by 2.
