If you move the decimal from left to right, then you make it either a whole number or a percentage.
Answer:
<h3> 26²/₃ liters of 15% acid and 13¹/₃ liters of 33% acid</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Concentration Amount of Amount
of Solution Solution (L) of Acid
15% x 0.15x
33% y 0.33y
21% 40 0.21•40
x + y = 40 ⇒ x = 40 - y
0.15x + 0.33y = 0.21•40
0.15(40 - y) + 0.33y = 0.21•40
6 - 0.15y + 0.33y = 8.4
0.18y = 2.4
y = 13¹/₃
x = 40 - 13¹/₃ = 26²/₃
Decimals that contain a zero in the tenth position can be thought of as a fraction over 100 as the tenth isn't occupied and the hundredth correlates to the 100 as a denominator. The same goes for a number with the tenth position occupied. These decimals would be put over 10 as they are occupying that position in the decimal.
Heya !
Using a theoram about triangles ,
Given a triangle ∆ABC, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of the triangle is greater than the length of the third side ,
Also , the length of third side always greater than absolute difference of the other two sides ,
Let the third side be x ,
So , x < 9 + 8 and x > 9 - 8
x < 17 and x > 1
Hence , x ∈ [ 2 , 17 ] inch.
Above case is true for any triangle , be it scalene , Isosceles , Right-angled ...
As , for Isosceles , the third side can be 8 or 9 inches ,
For scalene , all values in the above range satusfies ,
For right angled triangle , we have 2 cases ,
Case 1 : Third side is the hypotenuse
Then , x = √(9²+8²) = √145 = 12.0415 inch.
Case 2 : Third side is not the hypotenuse
Then , x = √(9²-8²) = √17 = 4.1231 inch.
Hope it helps you ! :)
