It woulds be x+15 because if you take 2x and subtracted from the 3x then you get x and then you add the 9 and 6 witch you get 15

A pharmacist has 40% and 80% of iodine solutions on hand. How many liters of each iodine solution will be required to produce 4 liters of a 50% iodine mixture?
.
Let x = liters of 40% iodine
then
4-x = liters of 80% iodine
Using algebra:
.40x + .80(4-x) = .50(4)
.40x + 3.20-.80x = 2
3.20-.40x = 2
x = 4 liters (40% iodine)
80% iodine:
4-x = 4-4 = 0 liters needed (80% iodine)
Answer:
P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can me modelled with an exponencial formula:
P = Po * (1+r)^t
Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate and t is the amount of time.
In this problem, we have that the inicial population/value is 27000, the rate is -8/9 (negative because the population decays), and the time t is in months, so as the rate is for every 4 months, we use the value (t/4) in the exponencial.
So, our function will be:
P(t) = 27000 * (1-8/9)^(t/4)
P(t) = 27000 * (1/9)^(t/4)
Simplify 5/10 to 1/2
find the LCD of both fractions and that would be 18
make the denominators the same as the LCD
Simplify, now denominators are equal
join the denominators
simplify it now (23/-18)
convert to mixed fraction
Answer: -1 5/18.
