Answer:
A: C = 2: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see the attached pictures for the full solution.
Further explanantion (2nd image):
The reason why the ratio of A: C is equal to the ratio if 2A: 2C is that the number of parts of A and C is equal, which is 2 parts. If I were to divide both 2A and 2C by 2 to find the ratio of A: C, I would obtain 15: 15/2. However, ratios are expressed as whole numbers and thus, we would multiply the whole ratio by 2 again and the answer would still be 30: 15. This ratio is not in the simplest form since both can be divided by 15. Thus, dividing both sides of the ratio by 15 will leave us with the final answer of
A: C= 2: 1.
☆ An alternative method is to simplify the ratio 3B: 2C at the beginning.
3B: 2C
= 36: 15
= 12: 5
Multiply the first ratio by 2 so 3B has 12 parts in both ratios:
2A: 3B
= 10: 12
Combining the 2 ratios together,
2A: 3B: 2C
= 10: 6: 5
2A: 2C
= 10: 5
= 2: 1
A: C= 2: 1
Answer:
-6.64
Step-by-step explanation:
since you need to find the value of x , but all values to one side and have x on the other .. meaning :
2 1/3 -12.3 = 1.5x
now that you have this find the decimal value of 2 1/3
which is 2*3 +1 = 7/3
in decimal form is 2.33333...
now subtract (2.3333.. - 12.3 ) / 1.5
x = -6.6444
to 3 sf = -6.64
The answers are: 4.5 g and 56.25 g respectively.
Since the first type of measurement in this question is weight or mass, I'll suppose that the percentage concentration is % mass/mass. For that type of concentration measurement, just multiply the percentage by the total mass to get the mass of the wanted material.
So 150 g * 3% = 150 g * 0.03 = 4.5g
For the 8% solution with the same amount of dry substance, use the ratio of percentages, multiplied by the mass of the first solution to get the wanted amount of new solution:
3/8 * 150 g = 56.35 g
Direct variation is y = kx where y would be the value of the number and x would be its position in the sequence, k is a constant
so for consecutive values y/x would be a constant k
In this case its not true becuse for example 3/1 = 3 and 6/3 = 2
so there is no direct variation here.
