You need a 15% acid solution for a certain test, but your supplier only ships 5% solution and 17.5% solution. if you need 20 liters of 15% acid solution, how many liters of 5% and 17.5% solution do you need?

4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let quantity of 5% be x liters and of 17.5% be y liters

x+y=20 hence y=20-x

Introducing percentages

0.05x+0.175(20-x)=0.15*20

0.05x+3.5-0.175x=3

-0.125x=-0.5

Therefore, y=20-x=20-4=16

You need 4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5% to achieve 20 liters of 15% acid solution

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
