Let the amount of water to be mixed = x ml 
new mixture = 237+x 
The new mixture is diluted to 75% strength i.e. 75/100 
75/100 = 3/4 
Therefore, 
237/(237+x) = 3/4 
4 *237 =3 (237+x) 
948=711+3x 
3x=948-711 
3x=237 
x=237/3 
x=79 
The amount of water to be mixed with ammonia = 79ml

Let the x ml of water be mixed with 237 ml of ammonia whose strength is 100%,  in order to create a mixture of 75% strength.
The equation required to solve this will be:
237/(237+x)=75/100
solving for x we get:
237/(237+x)=3/4
237×4=3(237+x)
948=711+3x
3x+711=948
3x=948-711
3x=237
x=237/3
x=79 ml
therefore the amount of water to be added will be 79 ml

Solve 5(x + 3) = 3x - 4<br>Show clear algebraic working,​
muminat

Answer:

5(x + 3) = 3x - 4

=> (5 * x ) + (5 * 3) = 3x - 4

=> 5x + 15 = 3x - 4

=> 5x = 3x - 4 - 15

=> 5x - 3x = -4 - 15

=> 2x = -19

=> x = -19/2

=> x = -9.5

If my answer helped, kindly mark me as the brainliest!

Thank You!!

rodikova [14]

Answer:

√27

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles of the pyramid are equilateral triangles with sides of 6''.

Dividing a triangle into two equal parts we get two congruent right triangles, with a hypotenuse of 6'', one leg of 3'', and the other leg is the slant height (s). From Pythagorean theorem:

3² + s² = 6²

s² = 6² - 3²

s = √27

Tim dug a hole that was 16 1/2 inches deep.He left a pile of dirt next to the hole that was 8 3/4 inches high.Show how you could
Viktor [21]

Answer:

14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the hole = 16(½) inches

Length of the dirt = 8(¾)inches

The distance between the top of the pile to the bottom of the hole = ?

Since the dirt is beside the hole and not inside the hole, we can find it's length using addition.

Distance from the top to the bottom = length of dirt + length of the hole

Length of dirt = 8×¾ = 6 inches

Length of the hole = 16 × ½ = 8 inches

Distance from the top of the dirt to the bottom of the hole = (6 + 8) inches

Distance from the top of the dirt to the bottom of the hole = 14 inches

Note: the only way we can use subtraction here is if the hole was filled with dirt, what's the distance that's left

Distance left = length of hole - length of dirt

Distance left = 8 - 6 = 2 inches .

But what the question requested was the distance from the top of the dirt to the bottom of the hole
