how many quarts of a 75% acid solution must be mixed with 3 quarts of a 10% acid solution to make a 60% acid solution

10 quarts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Work with amounts of pure acid.

There is 0.10*3 quarts of pure acid in the 10% solution.

3*0.10 + 0.75x = 0.60(x + 3)    where x is the number of quarts of 75% acid.

0.30 + 0.75x = 0.60x + 1.8

0.15x = 1.5

x = 10 .

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
