If you would like to solve (- 0.5) / (- 0.5) and - 50 / (- 0.5), you can do this using the following few steps:
(- 0.5) / (- 0.5) = 0.5 / 0.5 = 1
- 50 / (- 0.5<span>) = 50 / 0.5 = 50 / (5/10) = 50 / (1/2) = 50 * 2/1 = 100
</span>
The correct results would be: (- 0.5) / (- 0.5) = 1 and - 50 / (- 0.5<span>) = 100.</span>
X = amount of the 18% solution
y = amount of the 40% solution
we know the 18% solution has only 18% of alcohol, the rest is maybe water or something, now, how many liters is 18%? well, 18% of anything is just (18/100) * anything, so, 18% of x is just (18/100) *x or 0.18x, and that's how many liters are there.
likewise, how many liters are there in the 40% solution? well, (40/100) * y, or 0.4y, that many.
we know the mixture has to yield 10 liters at 20% alcohol, how many liters of only alcohol is that? well, (20/100) * 10, or 2 liters.


how much of the 40% solution? well y = 10 - x
There would be about 19 defective products delivered.
First, let's start with the number of defective games.
100000 x 0.0095 = 950
Now, the test will catch 98% of those defects. That means 2% of the defects will get through to the consumers.
0.02 x 950 = 19
The answer for this question is 1468
