A pharmacist has a 12% solution and a 20% solution of boric acid. How much of each should she use to make 80 grams of a 15% solu

nlexa [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80

Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.

We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.

We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.

x = 80 - y

.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12

9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12

.08y = 2.4

y = 30

x = 80 - 30 = 50

Which expressions are algebraically equivalent to the correct usage of the distance formula to find the distance from point A(3,

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

(5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given two points are:

A(3,k) and B(h,4)

Now, using the distance formula that is= $\sqrt{(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}+(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}}$ .

In the given points, $y_{2}=4$ , $y_{1}=k$ , $x_{2}=h$ and $x_{1}=3$ , thus,

$\sqrt{(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}+(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}}$ = $\sqrt{(4-k)^{2}+(h-3)^{2}}$

which is the required equation, hence option 5 is correct.
