A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B. Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is

40 % salt and Solution B is 90 % salt. She wants to obtain 50 ounces of a mixture that is 80 % salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?

Answer:

The scientist must use 10 ounces of Solution A and 40 ounces of Solution B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B, each containing salt, and she knows that Solution A is 40% salt and Solution B is 90% salt, and she wants to obtain 50 ounces of a mixture that is 80% salt, to determine how many ounces of each solution should she use the following calculation must be performed:

100 x 0.9 + 0 x 0.4 = 90

90 x 0.9 + 10 x 0.4 = 85

80 x 0.9 + 20 x 0.4 = 80

50 x 0.8 = 40

Therefore, the scientist must use 10 ounces of Solution A and 40 ounces of Solution B.

Can someone help me on this math problem.
nekit [7.7K]

In the rhombus, the diagonals are perpendicular.

We know, the sum of the measures of the triangle is equal 180°.

Therefore we have the equation:

(2x-15)+3x+90=180

2x-15+3x+90=180        <em>combine like terms</em>

(2x+3x)+(-15+90)=180

5x+75=180        <em>subtract 75 from both sides</em>

5x=105              <em>divide both sides by 5</em>

\boxed{x=21}

<h3>Answer: x = 21°</h3>

(3,1) m=0<br> In standard form
diamong [38]

0x + y = 1 is the standard form of (3, 1) with m = 0

<u>Solution:</u>

We have been given a point and slope of an equation and have been asked to write it in the standard form.

The standard form of a line is in the form Ax + By = C where A is a positive integer, and B, and C are integers. The standard form of a line is just another way of writing the equation of a line.

The given point is (3,1) and the slope is 0

To write in standard form we will first write it in point slope form and then rearrange it into a standard from.

The point slope form of line is given as:

y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right)

Where "m" is the slope of the line

Here in this problem, m = 0 , x_1 = 3 and y_1 = 1

y - 1 = 0(x - 3)

y - 1 = 0

y = 1

since the above equation doesn’t have an ‘x’ term we convert into a standard form as follows:

0x + y = 1

This is the standard form for the given point and slope of a line.
