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

#2 is the one I need help with
sleet_krkn [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

By arc sum Postulate of a circle:

2 x + 3x + 4x = 360°

9x = 360°

x = 360°/9

x = 40°

3x = 3* 40° = 120°

By inscribed angle theorem:

m\angle 1= \frac {1}{2} \times 3x\\\\\therefore m\angle 1= \frac {1}{2} \times 120°\\\\\huge \red {\boxed {\therefore m\angle 1= 60°}}

By tangent secant theorem:

m\angle 2 = \frac {1}{2} \times 3x\\\\\therefore m\angle 2 = \frac {1}{2} \times 120°\\\\\huge \purple {\boxed {\therefore m\angle 2 = 60°}}

Since, measure of central angle is equal to the measure of its corresponding minor arc.

m\angle 3 = 3x\\\\\huge \pink {\boxed {\therefore m\angle 3 = 120°}}

By angle sum Postulate of a triangle:

m\angle 3 + 2 m\angle 4 = 180°\\\\120° + 2 m\angle 4 = 180° \\\\2 m\angle 4 = 180°- 120° \\\\2 m\angle 4 = 60° \\\\m\angle 4 = \frac {60°}{2} \\\\\huge \orange {\boxed {m\angle 4 =30°}}
