Given parameters:

 Mass of gold in the chest box = 3\frac{1}{3}pounds

 

Unknown:

Number of pounds of gold the chest can hold = ?

Solution:

The chest can hold 2\frac{3}{5}times the amount of the box ;

So;

 Number of pounds of the gold in the chest can hold;

        =  2\frac{3}{5} times  x Mass of gold in the chest box

A chemist is mixing 45% salt solution with a 30% salt solution to make 60 L of a new solution that will contain 40% salt. How mu
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

30 ml of 45% salt solution and 20 ml of 30% salt solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of 45% salt solution and y be the amount of 30% salt solution

the two equation will be:

x+y=60 -- A

0.45x+0.3y=0.4(60) -- B

Solve by substitution

Rewrite Equation A

x+y=60

x=60-y --- C

Substitute C into B

0.45(60-y)+0.3y=24

 27-0.45y+0.3y=24

                -0.15y=-3

                        y=20

<u>Substitute</u> the y=20 into equation C

x=60-20

x=30

Therefore, there was 30 ml of 45% salt solution and 20 ml of 30% salt solution.

stira [4]
<span>Alex wants to borrow $1,000. The local bank says "10% Interest". So to borrow the $1,000 for 1 year will cost:$1,000 × 10% = $100</span>

In this case the "Interest" is $100, and the "Interest Rate" is 10% (but people often say "10% Interest" without saying "Rate")

Of course, Alex will have to pay back the original $1,000 after one year, so this is what happens:

Alex Borrows $1,000, but has to pay back $1,100<span>This is the idea of Interest ... paying for the use of the money</span>
