Let x=gallons of 80% solution to be mixed
x+80=gallons go final 70% mixture
..
80%*x+30%*80=70%*(x+80)
.8x+24=.7x+56
.1x=32
x=320
gallons of 80% solution to be mixed=320
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Tiffany should have multiplied by 0.5 in step 1, not divided.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
These triangles are similar triangles, so there is a number that you can multiply the sides of TUV to find the side lengths of QRS. looking at the triangle, the similar sides are RS being similar to UV and RQ being similar to UT.
If RS~UV, then there is a ratio between them. 54/36=1.5. The ratio is 1.5.
RQ~UT, and by a factor of 1.5, so divide RQ by the scale factor. 24/1.5=16. UT=16=x+5.
x+5=16, subtract 5 from both sides.
x=11
The unit rate for the 1st one is: $0.19 / ounce
The unit rate for the 2nd one is: $0.16 / ounce
The 36 ounce box would be the better buy because it is less per ounce than the 24 ounce box
Given:
In an isosceles triangle LMN, LM=MN.
To find:
The measure of the angles L, M and N.
Solution:
In triangle LMN,
(Given)
(Base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal)
Now,
On further simplification, we get
The value of x is 13. Using this value, we get
Similarly,
And,
Therefore, the measure of angles are 
.
