3. How many pounds of chocolates costing $4.

6 per pound
may be mixed with 6 pounds of chocolates costing $5 per
pound to produce a mixture that can be sold for $4.9 per
pound?

Chocolates costing - $4.60


Amount in lbs. - $4.60x
Total of Each - $4.60x

Chocolates costing - $5.00


Amount in lbs. – 6-x
Total of Each – 5.00(6-x)

Mixture - $4.90
Total of Mixutre - $4.90(6)

Equation
4.60x + 5.00(6-x) = 29.40
4.60x + 30.00 + 5.00x = 29.40
0.40x = 0.60

X = 1.5
4. A tub can be filled in 10 minutes and drained in 8 minutes.
How long will it take to empty a full tub if the water is left
open?

Find the net inflow/outflow rate: 1/10 – 1/8 = 1/40.


Invert the net rate to find the time to empty the tub: 1 / (1/40)
= 40 minutes.

5. How many liters of a 25% antibiotic solution should be


added to 10 liters of a 60% antibiotic solution in order to get
30%?

X=cc of 25% solution


10 cc * 0.60 (60%) + x cc * (.25) =(x+10)cc * (.30)

Multiply:
6 + (0.25) x = .30x + 3 ; We distribute the .30 over the (x
+10)

6+ 0.25 x =0.30 x +3
Subtract 6 from each side
0.25 x =0.30 x -3
Now subtract 0.30 x from both sides
-0.05 x=-3
Multiply both sides by (-1) ; 0.05 x =3
Divide both sides by 0.05
X=0/0.05
X=60 cc

48. A goldsmith has two alloys of gold, the first being 70%
pure gold, and the second 60% pure gold. How many grams
of the 70% pure gold should be used to make 100 grams of
an alloy which will be 66% pure gold?
49. If five times a number added with 6 is the same as the
square of the number, what is four times this number less 6?

5x + 6 = x²
X² - 5x – 6 = 0
This factors to (x – 6)(x + 1) = 0, so x = 6 or x = -1.
If x = 6, then four times this number less 6 is 4(6) – 6
= 18.
