How many ml of a 20% acid mixture and a 80% acid mixture should be mixed to get 120ml of a 35% acid mixture?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Volume of Mixture A =90 ml

Volume of Mixture B =30 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say, Mixture A + Mixture B = Mixture C

Volume of Mixture A is x

Volume of Mixture B is y

So, Volume of Mixture C is x+y = 120 ml

Now, Acid contain in Mixture A is 20% =0.2x

Acid contain in Mixture B is 80% =0.8y

Also, Acid contain in Mixture C is 35% =(0.35)(x+y) = 0.35×120=42

Now, we know that,

Acid contain of Mixture A + Acid contain of Mixture B=Acid contain of Mixture C

∴ 0.2x+0.8y=42

2x+8y=420

We get two linear equations

2x+8y=420 and x+y = 120

Solving above equation...

∴ x=120-y

Replacing x value in 2x+8y=420

∴ 2(120-y)+8y=420

∴ 240-2y+8y=420

∴ 6y=180

y=30

Replacing y value in any equation

∴ x=120-y=120-30=90

x=90

Thus,

Volume of Mixture A is x=90 ml

Volume of Mixture B is y=30 ml

Manny used 8 tenth-size parts to model 8/10. Ana used fewer parts to model an equivalent fraction. How does the size of a part in Ana's model compare to the size of a tenth-size part? Explain.

Answers

Alrighty, let's think of it like this: You are trying to fill a box with a bunch of sports balls. You have tiny little golf balls, and you have giant bowling balls. You need to fill this same box all the way up.

If you fill it with the tiny golf balls, you are going to need a whole lot of them!

If you are putting in bowling balls, only a few of them will fit, because they are so much bigger.

When it comes to your fraction, the box is the the number 8/10. That number will not change because we are not changing the size of the box.

We are just changing what we are filling it with. Manny, can fit 8 parts, or in this case balls, into the box.

It says Ana uses fewer parts, so she cannot fit as many in as Manny.

This means that Manny would have the golf balls, since he can fit more in than Ana, who must have the bowling balls.

So which is bigger? A bowling ball or a golf ball?

A bowling ball, which is what Ana has. So Ana's part will be bigger in size.
Ana's part is bigger

An airplane takes off from an airport and travels 1100 miles east and then travels 600 miles north. This trip can be plotted on the coordinate plane, where the airport is the point (0, 0).

Answers

Answer:

The plane is now at (1100, 600) in unit mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The airport is the point (0 ,0) and the plane travels from there 1100 miles east and thereafter 600 miles north. If the unit is in mile then we may say that the planes co -ordinates are now (1100 , 600)

Since,

positive x -axis points towards east and positive y-axis points towards north.

one half liter of lemonade concentrate is added to 3 liters of water. how many 1/3 liter servings of lemonade are made.

Answers

The way I understand this, is that we will have 3 (liters of water) +0.5 (half a liter of lemonade) =3.5 liters of liquid

so the question would be: how many times does (1)/(3) fit into 3.5?


I count this like this:

(3.5)/( (1)/(3) ) = (3.5*3)/(1) =9+1.5=10.5

if you want to divide by a fraction, you need to multiply by the reverse of it.

so the answer is: 10 servings of lemonade ( and a little bit will be left over for half a serving).
