Um where the problem or number?
Answer : 4 times
Here it's given that ,
- The height and base of the butterfly sitting on the stem (red butterfly) is two times greater than the height and base of the butterfly sitting on the flower .
And we need to find out how many times the area of red winged butterfly is greater than that of sitting on the flower (blue butterfly) .
Let us take ,
- base of blue butterfly be b
- height of blue butterfly be h
- Area be A .
Then ,
- base of red butterfly will be 2b .
- height of red butterfly will be 2h .
- Area be A' .
We know that ,
→ area of the triangle = 1/2 × base × height
So that ,
→ A/A' = (1/2 * b * h) ÷ (1/2 *2b *2h)
→ A/A' = bh/4bh
→ A/A' = 1/4
→ A' = 4A
<u>Henceforth</u><u> the</u><u> area</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>blue</u><u> butterfly</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>times </u><u>greater</u><u> than</u><u> </u><u>that</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>red </u><u>winged</u><u> butterfly</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
I hope this helps.
Try this:
1) note that weight of pure antifreeze before mixing and after mixing is the same. So, if 'x' is weight of pure antifreeze in 50% solution, it is possible to make up equation before mixing: 0.5x+0.2*90.
2) there are 0.2*90=18 gal. of pure antifreeze in the 20% solution. If 'x' gal. is the weight of pure antifreeze in 50% sol. and 18 gal. is the weight of pure antifreeze in 20% sol., it is possible to make up an equation after mixing: 0.4(x+18).
3) using the both parts: 0.5x+0.2*90=0.4(x+18) ⇒ x=54 gal. of <u>pure</u> weight.
4) to find 50% solution of 54 gal. pure weight just 54:0.5=108 gal.
Answer: 108 gal.
You answer will be either 15% or 13%
