This question is not even trying to test your arithmetic. It's just testing
to see whether you know how to read numbers in words properly.
When you read numbers in words, the only time you ever say "and"
is for a decimal point. There are no decimals in this question, so the
"and" is not a part of any numbers.
The question gives you two numbers. The word "and" is the marker
that's
BETWEEN them. The two numbers are 1,300 and 950 .
The first thing the question wants you to do is write the numerical
expression for all the words. That's (1300 - 950) / 4 .
The next thing you're supposed to do is"evaluate the expression" ...
find out what number it all boils down to. I don't think you'll have
any trouble with that now.
In order to construct this equation, we will use the variables:
V to represent mixture volume (40 ml)
C to represent mixture concentration (0.32)
v₁ to represent volume of first solution (40 / 4 = 10 ml)
c₁ to represent concentration of first solution (0.2)
v₂ to represent the volume of the second solution (40 * 3/4 = 30 ml)
c₂ to represent the concentration of the second solution
We know that the total amount of substance, product of the volume and concentration, in the final solution is equal to the individual amounts in the two given solutions. Thus:
VC = v₁c₁ + v₂c₂
40(0.32) = 10(0.2) + 30c
Answer:
y=3/2x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: A = X + Y
B = X or Y. A = 12, B = 8, X = 2, Y = 10, A = 12, B = 9.
