<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

    B. x < 397.9 and x > 402.1

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Each bag is advertised as weighing 400 grams.

Also, a  bag must weigh within 2.1 grams in order to be accepted.

Hence, for the bag being accepted the weight must be no less than 2.1 gram from 400 gram and should be no more than 2.1 gram from 400 grams.

i.e. the weight of the bag must be such that:

               400-2.1≤ x ≤ 400+2.1

i.e.

              397.9 ≤ x ≤ 402.1

Hence, if the weight of the bag is less than 397.9 grams or is more than 402.1 grams then the bag will be rejected.

i.e. The range for the bag being rejected is: x<397.9 grams and x>402.1 grams.

You calculate this by subtracting and adding 5.3 to 500

You and your friend are making 30 liters of sodium water. You have liters of 10% sodium and your friend has liters of 22% sodium
iren [92.7K]
X liters of 10% + (30 - x) liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15% 

<span>Plugging in the numbers </span>
<span>x(10) + (30 - x)22 = 30(15) </span>

<span>Distribute </span>
<span>10x + 660 - 22x = 450 </span>

<span>Combine like terms </span>
<span>-12x = -210 </span>

<span>Divide both sides by -12 </span>
<span>x = 17.5 </span>
<span>30 - x = 12.5 </span>

<span>17.5 liters of 10% + 12.5 liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15%

THE TRICK IS TO JUST USE ONLY ONE VARIABLE</span>
