Answer:

x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is (2+x)+4.

The associative property is :

(a+b)+c= a+(b+c)

Here,

a = 2, b = x and c = 4

So,

(2+x)+4 = 2+(x+4)

= x+6

So, the equivalent expression is x+6.

The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales are related by the equation F=9/5C+32. What temperature is equal to a body temperature of 98.6

____ [38]

$\textbf{Substitute\ in\ the\ equation}$

$\displaystyle 98.6 = \frac{9C}{5} +32$

$\textbf{Solve\ for\ }C$

$\displaystyle 66.6 = \frac{9C}{5}$

$333=9C$

$\large C=\textbf{37 \textdegree C}$

Solve the system of equations.in this form: (x, y) -5y + 8x = -18 5y + 2x = 58

Gre4nikov [31]

If we add the equations it looks like
-5y + 8x + 5y + 2x = -18+58
so 10x=40
so x=40/10=4
now let's replace x by 4 in the second equation
5y +2*4=58
5y=58-2*4=58-8=50
so y=50/5=10
so (x, y) = (2, 10)

How much of 30% HCI and 45% HCI would be needed to mix and produce 50 liters of 35% HCI

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

33 1/3 liters of 30%
16 2/3 liters of 45%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the liters of 45% solution needed. Then the amount of HCl in the mix is ...

0.45x +0.30(50 -x) = 0.35(50)

0.15x = 0.05(50) . . . . . simplify, subtract 0.30(50)

x = (0.05/0.15)(50) = 50/3 = 16 2/3 . . . liters of 45% HCl

33 1/3 liters of 30% and 16 2/3 liters of 45% HCl are needed.

_____

Comment on the solution

You may notice that the general solution to a mixture problem of this sort is that the fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is ...

(mix % - low %) / (high % - low %) = (.35 -.30) / (.45 -.30) = .05/.15 = 1/3
