A solution containing 30% insecticide is to be mixed with a solution containing 50% insecticide to make 200 L of a solutions containing 42% insecticide. How much of each solution should be used?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Let x L of solution 1 is used 
and 2nd solution is (200-x)L

According to question,
30% of x + 50% of (200-x) = 42% of 200L
0.3x + 0.5(200-x) = 84
0.3x - 0.5x + 100= 84
0.2x = 16
x=80

Therfore 80L of solution 1 and 120L of solution 2 is mixed.

What would be the cost for 5 of the cost for 5 of the gift cards a $80
b $90
c$100
d$110

Answers

Answer:

Cost for the 5 gift cards = $20

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given graph,

y axis shows the "total cost" in dollars

x axis shows the "number of gift cards"

According to the graph:

Cost of 1 card    = $20

Cost of 2 cards = $40

Cost of 3 cards = $60

Cost of 4 cards = $80

We see that that relation represents the linear relation.

So, cost of 5 cards = 5*$20 = $100

That's the final answer.

I hope it will helps you.

the table shows that 1 gift card equals 20 dollars... so 20 * 5 = 100
so your answer is C.) $100

Same as the last one you asked. 

AB + BC = AC. Just think of it like Part + Part = Whole Thing

(2x + 6) + (6x + 5) = 51

Combine like terms:
8x + 11 = 51

Subtract 11 from both sides to get the variable and its coefficient on its own:
8x = 51 - 11
8x = 40

Divide both sides by 8 to isolate the variable:
x = 5

It's asking for us to find BC so now we plug in x = 5 to the equation it gave for BC. 

6x + 5
6(5) + 5
30 + 5
35

BC is 35 units long.
