Answer:
- 33 1/3 liters of 30%
- 16 2/3 liters of 45%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the liters of 45% solution needed. Then the amount of HCl in the mix is ...
0.45x +0.30(50 -x) = 0.35(50)
0.15x = 0.05(50) . . . . . simplify, subtract 0.30(50)
x = (0.05/0.15)(50) = 50/3 = 16 2/3 . . . liters of 45% HCl
33 1/3 liters of 30% and 16 2/3 liters of 45% HCl are needed.

<em>Comment on the solution</em>
You may notice that the general solution to a mixture problem of this sort is that the fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is ...
(mix % - low %) / (high % - low %) = (.35 -.30) / (.45 -.30) = .05/.15 = 1/3

-12 and 3 add up to -9 but multiply to 36.
Answer:
16 people
Step-by-step explanation:
First subtract the cost of the rental from the amount of money:
$400-$150 = $250
Therefore Tia has $250 to spend for additional people. Then if each person is $15, divide the remaining amount of money by the amount of money per person:
$250/$15 = 16.67
Since you can't have 0.67 of a person she can have 16 people go with her.
This can also be modeled by this inequality:
The first lot is (250 x 300) x 5 = 375,000
The second lot is (350 x 400) x 5 = 700,000
375,000 + 700,000 = $1,075,000
