Answer:
150 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the quantity of 75% solution needed. The total amount of alcohol in the 60% mixture will be ...
75%·x + 10%·45 = 60%·(x+45) . . . . . there will be x+45 mL of solution in the end
0.15x = 22.5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract .60x+4.5
22.5/0.15 = x = 150 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . mL of 75% solution needed
You will need 150 mL of the 75% solution.
This is the answer in exact form
EXPLANATION:
The decimal number that is greater is the one with the largest integer part. If they have the same integer part, the first different decimal place is compared.
Now we are going to order the numbers of the exercise,
The correct order is:
-90.98
-90.9
-90.089
-90
-89.89
116100 will be 90% of the selling price
The will need to sell for 116100 / 90 x 100 = $129000
