Bad question. Volume is cubic units, not square units.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Drop an altitude. Either of the two resulting right triangles with legs of length 5 and x and a hypotenuse of 10.
By the Pythagorean theorem, it follows that the answer is B.
20% x 50 =(20 / 100) x 50 = (20 x 50) / 100 = 1000 / 100 = 10
answer is 10
Answer: choice A. 40 liters
====================================
Explanation:
x = number of liters of the 50% alcohol solution
If we have x liters of 50% alcohol, then we have 0.50*x liters of pure alcohol. This is added to 0.90*40 = 36 liters of pure alcohol (from the 90% solution).
So far we have 0.50*x + 36. This expression represents the total amount of pure alcohol. We want a 70% solution, so we want 70% of the total 40+x meaning 0.50*x + 36 is to be set equal to 0.70*(40+x) and we solve for x as shown below
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40+x)
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40)+0.70*(x)
0.50*x + 36 = 28+0.70*x
36 - 28 = 0.70*x - 0.50x
8 = 0.20x
0.20x = 8
x = 8/0.20
x = 40
So that is why the answer is choice A. 40 liters
