Answer:

x = 20% acid = 60 ml

y = 45% acid = 40 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = 20% acid

y = 45% acid

x + y = 100 (1)

.20x + .45y = .3 ×100

.20x + .45y = 30 (2)

From (1)

x + y = 100 (1)

x = 100 - y

Substitute x = 100 - y into (2)

.20x + .45y = 30

.20(100 - y) + .45y = 30

20 - .20y + .45y = 30

- .20y + .45y = 30 - 20

.25y = 10

y = 10/.25

y = 40 ml

Substitute y = 40 into (1)

x + y = 100

x + 40 = 100

x = 100 - 40

x = 60 ml

x = 20% acid = 60 ml

y = 45% acid = 40 ml

Solve for x. x = [?] 5x - 7/3x + 27 ..​
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

the angles shown are supplementary

supplementary angles add up to 180°

hence, 5x - 7 + 3x + 27 = 180

==> combine like terms

8x + 20 = 180

==> subtract 20 from both sides

8x = 160

==> divide both sides by 8

x = 20

3 times x minus 2/5 =8/5 what is x equal to
shutvik [7]

Translating this word problem into an algebraic equation, we get:

3x - 2/5 = 8/5.

Let's combine the constants:  adding 2/5 to both sides of this equation yields  

3x = 10/5, or 3x = 2.

Solving for x:  x = 2/3

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

268.0 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

refer to attached graphic as reference

volume of cone, V = (1/3) πr²h

in our case, we are given r = 4" and h = 16"

substituting this into equation:

V = (1/3) πr²h

=  (1/3) ·(3.14) · (4)²· (16)

= 267.94667 in²

= 268.0 in² (nearest tenth)
