As far as the old dimensions of the photo are concerned,
Width of the photo = 3"
Length of the photo = 5"
New length of the photo = 7 inches
Let us assume the new width of the photo = x inches
Then
3/5 = x/7
5x = 7 * 3
5x = 21
x = 21/5
= 4.20 inches
So the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option. I hope that the answer has come to your help.
Answer:
Josh was driving faster
Step-by-step explanation:
Josh was going faster becuase 320 divided by 4 is 80
and 225 divided by 3 is 75.
In conclusion Josh was going faster by 5mph.
multiply both sides by .4 to isolate the x variable.
x = 1.6
A pharmacist has 40% and 80% of iodine solutions on hand. How many liters of each iodine solution will be required to produce 4 liters of a 50% iodine mixture?
.
Let x = liters of 40% iodine
then
4-x = liters of 80% iodine
Using algebra:
.40x + .80(4-x) = .50(4)
.40x + 3.20-.80x = 2
3.20-.40x = 2
x = 4 liters (40% iodine)
80% iodine:
4-x = 4-4 = 0 liters needed (80% iodine)
