Tim bought a washing machine for a total of $651 with tax included. What was the price of the washing machine before tax if Tim

Molodets [167]

Answer:

<em>The washing machine cost $600 before tax</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages </u>

The washing machine cost $651 including a tax of 8.5%.

If x was the cost of the washing machine before tax, then the tax was:

x*8.5/100 = 0.085x

It was added to the original price:

x + 0.085x = 1.085x

That is the final price, thus

1.085x=$651

Solving:

x = $651/1.085

x = $600

The washing machine cost $600 before tax

A chemist wishes to mix a solution that is 6% acid. She has on hand 14 liters of a 4% acid solution and wishes to add some 10% a

jonny [76]

she should add 7 liters of 10% acid solution

Explanation

Step 1

set the equation:

a) let X represents the amount os solution that is 4% acid

let Y represents the amount os solution that is 10% acid

so

I)

$\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{100}X+\frac{10}{100}Y=\frac{6}{100}(x+y) \\ \end{gathered}$

if he has 14 liters of 4% acid solution

$x=14$

$\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{100}X+\frac{10}{100}Y=\frac{6}{100}(X+Y) \\ \frac{4}{100}*14+\frac{10}{100}Y=\frac{6}{100}(X+Y) \\ 0.56+0.1Y=0.06(14+Y) \\ 0.56+0.1Y=0.84+0.06Y \\ \end{gathered}$

Step 2

solve the equation :

$\begin{gathered} 0.56+0.1Y=0.84+0.06Y \\ subtract\text{ 0.06Y in both sides} \\ 0.56+0.1Y-0.06Y=0.84+0.06Y-0.06Y \\ 0.56+0.04Y=0.84 \\ subtract\text{ 0.56 in both sides} \\ 0.56+0.04Y-0.56=0.84-0.56 \\ 0.04Y=0.28 \\ divide\text{ both sides by 0.04} \\ \frac{0.04Y}{0.04}=\frac{0.28}{0.04} \\ Y=7 \end{gathered}$

therefore,

she should add 7 liters of 10% acid solution

I hope this helps you
