Achemist needs 120 milliliters of a 72% solution but has only 51% and 87% solutions available. find how many milliliters of each that should be mixed to get the desired solution.

The chemist needs 50 mL of 51% solution and 70 mL of 87% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the volume of 51% solution, and y is the volume of 87% solution, then:

x + y = 120

0.51x + 0.87y = 0.72(120)

Solve the system of equations.

0.51x + 0.87(120 − x) = 0.72(120)

0.51x + 104.4 − 0.87x = 86.4

0.36x = 18

x = 50

y = 70

The chemist needs 50 mL of 51% solution and 70 mL of 87% solution.

answer: the distance

step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the distance d of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula d (x2 x1)2 (y2 y1)2. to calculate the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula
