Answer:

100 liters of  10% solution is used and 20 liters of  40% solution is used

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "X" amount of 10% solution is used. Then the amount of 40% solution used is equal to 120-X

Now

10% of X + 40% of (120-X) = 15% of 120

On solving the above equation, we get

0.1 X + 0.4 (120-X) = 0.15 *120\\0.1 X + 48 -0.4X = 18\\0.3 X = 30\\X = 100liters

Amount of 40% solution used  = 120 -X = 120-100 = 20 liters

100 liters of  10% solution is used and 20 liters of  40% solution is used

Answer:

The distance between E and F is 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>E</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>F</em><em> </em><em>are</em><em> </em><em>share</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>same</em><em> </em><em>y-coordinates</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>So</em><em> </em><em>for</em><em> </em><em>this</em><em> </em><em>part</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>okay</em><em> </em><em>to not</em><em> </em><em>use</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>distance</em><em> </em><em>formula</em><em>.</em><em> </em>

<em>So</em><em> </em><em>you</em><em> </em><em>will</em><em> </em><em>be</em><em> </em><em>having</em><em>:</em>

<em>E</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>5</em><em>,</em><em>8</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>F</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>5</em><em>,</em><em>3</em><em>)</em>

<em>EF</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>8-3</em><em>=</em><em>5</em>

<em>OR</em><em> </em>

<em>YOU</em><em> </em><em>CAN</em><em> </em><em>USE</em><em> </em><em>THE</em><em> </em><em>DISTANCE</em><em> </em><em>FORMULA</em><em> </em><em>AS</em><em> </em><em>INDICAYED</em><em> </em><em>IN</em><em> </em><em>THE</em><em> </em><em>PICTURE</em><em>.</em>

<em>Hopefully</em><em> </em><em>the picture</em><em> </em><em>is clear and understandable</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>younger</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>explanation</em><em>.</em>
