Taking the 3 solutions as 3 different terms, we can create an equation as follows:
Solution 1 : 10mL with 20% acid
Solution 2 : 30mL with x% acid
Solution 3 : 40mL with 32% acid
Since solution 1 + solution 2 = solution 3, let us substitute the given values we have:
10(0.2) + 30(x) = 40(0.32)
2 + 30x = 12.8
To solve for the unknown concentration x, we subtract 2 from both sides:
2 + 30x - 2 = 12.8 - 2
30x = 10.8
Dividing both sides by 30:
30x/30 = 10.8/30
x = 0.36
Therefore the unknown solution is 36% acid.

Answer:
17mL
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert 0.85 gr to miligrams
If 100 mg is 1 gr. Then, 0.85 gr is 850 mg
So, 850 multiply for 5ml and divide for 250 ml
or 
So all mg is gone and the amount of mililiters is 17
Let us say that:
o = cost of oranges per pound
p = cost of pears per pound
so that:
o = p – 2
Therefore:
10o + 8p = 61
10 (p – 2) + 8p = 61
10p – 20 + 8p = 61
18p = 81
p = 4.5
p = $4.5 per pound
So 3 pounds of pears would cost:
total cost = 3 * 4.5
total cost = $13.5
