Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color a is black. sixty percent of the pigment in paint color b is black. an unknown amount of paint color b is mixed with 40 ml of paint color a, resulting in a paint that contains 25% black pigment. which equation can be used to solve for x, the total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors?

The equation is :

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors be represented by = x

Given is : 15% of the pigment in paint color A is black. 60% of the pigment in paint color B is black. An unknown amount of paint color B is mixed with 40 ml of paint color A, resulting in a paint that contains 25% black pigment.

So, the resultant equation becomes:

If we want to solve for x we get,

0.35x=18

x=51.43

its b

Step-by-step explanation:

just took the quiz

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct.   we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306.   this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395.   answer c is correct.
