7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

let x=0.583333..

multiply by powers of 10 to get repeated 3's only on the rights for two different multiples of x

1000x= 583.33

100x=58.33

50x= 525/900

=25x21/25x36

=21/36

=7/12

Doreen schmidt is a chemist. She needs to prepare 36 ounces of a 10% shydrochloric acid solution. Find the amount of 18% solutio

emmainna [20.7K]

Total = 36oz
Amount of 18% solution = x
Amount of 9% solution = 36 - x

Using the fact that (amount of solution) * (percent HCl) = amount HCl we can set up an expression for the amount HCl in a mixture of 18% and 9% solutions with a total volume of 36oz.

Amount of HCl = x*0.18 + (36 - x)*0.09

If we divide this by the amount of solution we get percent HCl, and we have a target of 10% HCl. Now we have an equation to solve,

[x*0.18 + (36 - x)*0.09]/36 = 0.1

x*0.09 + 3.24 = 3.6

.09x = 0.36
x = 4

Therefore,
4 ounces of 18% HCl solution and 32 ounces of 9% HCl solution

Check:
[(4*.18) + (.09*32)]/36 = 0.1?
0.1 = 0.1 Yes.

Nalani says the expression 2+5x cannot be factored using the GCF. Is she correct? Explain why or why not

serious [3.7K]

The correct answer would be D, because there’s no other leading common factors between the two besides one.

A board that measures 3/4 feet long is cut into 6 equal pieces. What is the length of each piece?

gayaneshka [121]

I would convert from feet to inches and say an 9 in long board is cut.
Now just divide 9 by 6
9/6=1.5 inches
