Ron has enough time to finish his homework and walk the dog before his lesson. Ron should overestimate the total time needed. Since Ron has 50 minutes to spare he could add 25 to home work time and another 25 to walking his dog. he still ha time to do both.
1)We need to know the amount of yellow tint in the old mixture.
amount of yellow tint=30% of 40 liters
30%=30/100=0.3
Amount of yellow tint=0.3(40 liters)=12 liters.
2)We need to find the amount of yellow tint in the new mixture.
amount of yellow tint in the new mixture=12 liters + 9 liters=21 liters.
3) we calculate the amount of the new mixture:
amount of new mixture=40 liters + 9 liters=49 liters
4) we compute the percent of yellow tint in the new mixture:
percent of yellow tint =(amount of yellow tint / amount of mixture)*100
percent of yellow tint=(21 liters / 49 liters)100≈42.9%
Answer: The percent of yellow tint in the new mixture is 42.9%.
note: if this answer is not correct you can try it with 42.8%
