Answer:

21 liters of the 12% solution and 4 liters of the 37% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number of liters of the first solution as x and the second as y. Now, the total liters of iodine is going to be 16% of 25 = 4 liters of iodine, and the total liters of each solution is going to be 25. Now, we can setup two equations:

0.12x+0.37y = 4

x + y = 25

Multiplying the bottom equation by 0.12, we have

0.12x + 0.12y = 3

Subtracting, we have

0.12x+0.37y=4

-

0.12x + 0.12y = 3

= 0.25y = 1

= y = 4

= x = 25 - 4 = 21

The sales tax rate is 4.3064.306​% for the city and 44​% for the state. Find the total amount paid for 33 boxes of chocolates at
svp [43]

Answer:

The Total amount of of 33 boxes of chocolates including taxes is $838.358

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The sales tax rate for city = 4.306%

The sales tax rate for the state = 44%

Total number of boxes = 33

The price of each chocolates = $17.13

So , The price of 33 boxes of chocolates = $17.13 × 33

I.e The price of 33 boxes of chocolates = $565.29

Now total tax including state and city =  4.306% + 44% = 48.306 %

So, The tax amount paid for 33 boxes of chocolates = 48.306 % of $565.29

∴    The tax amount paid for 33 boxes of chocolates = 48.306 % × $565.29

                                                                       = 0.48306× $565.29

                                                                       = $273.068

∴ The Total amount of of 33 boxes of chocolates including taxes = $565.29 +  $273.068 = $838.358

Hence The Total amount of of 33 boxes of chocolates including taxes is $838.358 . Answer

If you have five red balls and five blue balls in a jar what’s the probability of the first ball being red?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

red balls = 5

blue balls = 5

total balls = 5 blue+5 red

= 10

p(first \: ball \: being \: red) =  \frac{red \: balls}{total \: balls}

p(first \: ball \: being \: red) =  \frac{5}{10}  =  \frac{1}{2}
