Answer:
6 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the number of ounces of the 15% alcohol solution needed to be mixed with the 4 ounces of 20% alcohol solution to obtain the 17% alcohol solution.
After converting the percentages to their decimal equivalents, set up the necessary equation as follows:
0.15x+0.20(4) = (x+4)(0.17) Simplify and solve for x.
0.15x+0.8 = 0.17x+0.68 Subtract 0.15x from both sides.
0.8 = 0.02x+0.68 Now subtract 0.68 from both sides.
0.12 = 0.02x Finally, divide both sides by 0.02
x = 6
You need to mix 6 ounces of 15% alcohol solution with 4 ounces of 20% alcohol solution to obtain 10 (x+4)ounces of 17% alcohol solution.

<u>Answer:</u>
$50 and $115
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We know that,
the sum of the two rates = $165 per hour
Let x and (165 - x) represent the $/hour of the 15hr and 5hr mechanics respectively.
Then combining their charges together to get:

Solving for x to get:



So the rate charged per hour by one mechanic is $50 and for the other mechanic =
$115.
Answer:
A repeating decimal or recurring decimal is decimal representation of a number whose digits are periodic (repeating its values at regular intervals) and the infinitely repeated portion is not zero. The infinitely repeated digit sequence is called the repetend or reptend.
