Step-by-step explanation:

you mixed an 8% and a 12% solution together.

so, you get (8%×mass1 + 12%×mass2)/((mass1 + mass2)/2) as resulting % of the combined solution.

since the result is 10%, which is precisely the arithmetic middle

(8 + 12)/2

we see that mass1 = mass2.

in other words : the same quantity (mass) of the 8% solution and the 12% solution was mixed together.

so, 760g = 2×mass

=>

mass = 380g

380g of the 8% solution and 380g of the 12% solution were mixed together.

Tema [17]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 can be multiplied by 5 to equal 15ths since we can know 15 (seconds number fraction) is 5 times the originals (first numbers fractions)

This equals to 10/15 and means that with 1/15th on each 10 sandwiches can be made.

The answer gives it straight forward but explanation gets in depth

Edit: I saw your answer and yes it equals 10 but you multiply what it is a fraction of too.

2/3

x5

10/15

Hope that helps some more

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

all of the angles add up to equal 180 so we setup the equation as 45+3x=180

first you subtract each side by 45

135=3x

then you divide each side by 3 and get that

x=45
