Let x be volume of 5% acid and y be volume of the 8%


x + y = 750  and 
0.05x + 0.08y = 0.07*750 =  52.5

from first equation y = 750 - x so substituting in the second equation:-

0.05x + 0.08(750 - x) = 52.5
0.05 - 0.08x = 52.5 - 60
-0.03x = -7.5
x =  -7.5 / -0.3 =  250 mls  <------ answer

3 pieces of wood have a total length of 32 m. The second piece is twice the size of the first and the third piece is 2 more mete
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

X + Y + Z = 32

X2 = Y

X3 + 2 = Z

X + X2 + X3 + 2 = 32

Make X alone

There is a 2 so we subtract 2 from both sides

X + X2 + X3 = 30

Add the X's up

X + X2 + X3 = X6

X6 = 30

Divide by 6

30 / 6 = 5

You are left with X=5

The first piece of wood has a length of 5

5 x 2 = 10

The second piece has a value of 10

5 x 3 + 2 = 17

The third piece is 17

Hope this helps. If you have any questions you may ask.

Ray Of Light [21]
The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value?
P present value 160000
R interest rate 0.16
T time 3years
A=160,000×(1+0.16)^(3)
A=249,743.36

Use that future value to find the present value at a rate 8% compounded annually
To find p (present value) solve the formula for p
P=A÷ (1+r)^t
Where r is 0.08
P=249,743.36÷(1+0.08)^(3)
p=198,254.33
