Answer:

25 % acid solution = 450ml

45% acid solution = 150ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = 25 % acid solution

y = 45% acid solution

x + y = 600

.25x + .45y = .30(600)

x + y = 600 (1)

.25x + .45y = 180 (2)

From (1)

x = 600 - y

Substitute x = 600 - y into (2)

.25x + .45y = 180

.25(600 - y) + .45y = 180

150 - .25y + .45y = 180

150 + .20y = 180

.20y = 180 - 150

.20y = 30

Divide both sides by .20

y = 30/0.20

= 150

y = 150ml

Substitute y = 150 into

x + y = 600

x + 150 = 600

x = 600 - 150

= 450

x = 450ml

25 % acid solution = 450ml

45% acid solution = 150ml

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Slope = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use any two pairs from the table of values, say (0, 3) and (2, 11).

Slope = ∆y/∆x

Slope = \frac{11 - 3}{2 - 0}

Slope = \frac{8}{2}

Slope = 4

Find equations of the line that is parallel to the z-axis and passes through the midpoint between the two points (0, −4, 9) and
Lorico [155]

Answer: x = -4, y = 0.5, z = 5 +t

Hi!

The line L whose direction is parallel to vector V a passes through point A

is parametrized

P_L = Vt + A

Where t, is a real number, and P_L is a any point on line L.

In this case the direction is that of the z-axis , so V = (0, 0, 1)

A is the midpoint between points B = (0, -4, 9) and C=(-8, 5, 1)

The midpoint is A = (B + C)/2 = (-4, 0.5, 5)

Then the line is:

P_L = (0,0,1) t + (-4, 0.5, 5)

The equations for each coordinate are:

x = -4\\y = 0.5\\z = 5 + t

a chef uses 5 2/5 pounds of ground beef to make a hamburger and 2 1/4 pounds of ground beef to make meatloaf. the ground beef co
Lisa [10]

Answer:

16 packages

Step-by-step explanation:

5 2/5 + 2 1/4  Use the common denominator of 20

5 8/20 + 2 5/20  

7  13/20

I know that I will need 14 packages for the 7 pounds.  For the fraction part, 10/20 would be half, so I would need to buy a half pound for that, but I need 13/20 which would be more than a half pound, so I will need to buy 2 more pounds for the fraction part.

14 + 2 = 16
