175 mL at 25% concentration of alcohol contains 0.25 (175 mL) = 43.75 mL of alcohol. If <em>v</em> is the amount of the 70% solution that you use, then that amount contains 0.7<em>v</em> mL of alcohol.
Mixing these two yields a total volume of 175 mL + <em>v</em>, and it contains 43.75 mL + 0.7<em>v</em> alcohol. You want to end up with a concentration of 45%, which means the ratio of the amount of alcohol to the total volume needs to be 0.45:
(43.75 mL + 0.7<em>v</em>) / (175 mL + <em>v</em>) = 0.45
Solve for <em>v</em> :
43.75 mL + 0.7<em>v</em> = 0.45 (175 mL + <em>v</em>)
43.75 mL + 0.7<em>v</em> = 78.75 mL + 0.45<em>v</em>
0.25<em>v</em> = 35 mL
<em>v</em> = 140 mL
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the value of x
By mathematical convention;
NM = NL + LM
Now, substitute individual values
3x + 13 = (6x-5) + (2x + 3)
3x + 13 = 6x-5 + 2x + 3
3x + 13 = 8x -2
Collect like terms
8x -3x = 13 + 2
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3
Answer:
lines a and b
Step-by-step explanation:
A negative slope makes the line face leftward so that leaves a and b.
.33 because the 2 needs to round up hecause there is a number greater than 5 after it
