Apharmacist has 30% and 60% iodine solutions on hand. how many liters of each iodine solution will be required to produce 6 liters of a 50% iodine.

4 liters of 60% solution; 2 liters of 30% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

I like to use a simple, but effective, tool for most mixture problems. It is a kind of "X" diagram as in the attachment.

The ratios of solution concentrations are 3:6:5, so I've used those numbers in the diagram. The constituent solutions are on the left; the desired mixture is in the middle, and the numbers on the other legs of the X are the differences along the diagonals: 6 - 5 = 1; 5 - 3 = 2. This tells you the ratio of 60% solution to 30% solution is 2 : 1.

These ratio units (2, 1) add to 3. We want 6 liters of mixture, so we need to multiply these ratio units by 2 liters to get the amounts of constituents needed. The result is 4 liters of 60% solution and 2 liters of 30% solution.

If you're writing equations, it often works well to let the variable represent the quantity of the greatest contributor—the 60% solution. Let the volume of that (in liters) be represented by v. Then the total volume of iodine in the mixture is ...

... 0.60·v + 0.30·(6 -v) = 0.50·6

... 0.30v = 0.20·6 . . . . subtract 0.30·6, collect terms

... v = 6·(0.20/0.30) = 4 . . . . divide by the coefficient of v

4 liters of 60% solution are needed. The other 2 liters are 30% solution.

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation

graph of this function as shown below:

step-by-step explanation:   divide the numerator by the denominator to get the decimal

it would still be 193

if divide by 100 then 1.93
