There are 20 gallons of a 20% butterbeer solution.
Let x represent the gallons of the 80% solution.

Thus, the total volume of the resulting solution will be (x+20) gallons
The final mixture needs to be 50% concentration.

Consequently, we can formulate the equation as:

0.2(20)+0.8(x)=0.5(x+20) \\ \\ 4+0.8x=0.5x+10 \\ \\ 0.8x-0.5x=10-4 \\ \\ 0.3x=6 x=20.

Hence, to achieve a 50% butterbeer solution, 20 gallons of the 80% mixture should be combined with 20 gallons of the 20% mixture.

The given equation has been solved in the table. In which step was the subtraction property of equality applied?
tester [10806]
The correct answer is Option (D). The subtraction property of equality asserts that whatever is subtracted from one side of an equation must also be subtracted from the other side. In the instance where x + 2 = 2, applying this property leads to: x + 2 - 2 = 2 - 2, simplifying to x = 0. However, the provided question displays the addition property of equality utilized in step 2, indicating that the subtraction property was not applied there. Consequently, Option (D) is the correct response.

The length and width of a book cover are 22.2cm and 12 cm respectively
zzz [10999]

The dimensions of the book cover are 28.3 centimeters in length and 21 centimeters in width. Calculate the range of values for both the actual length and width of the book cover. Minimum length = (28.3 - 0.05) cm and maximum length = (28.3 + 0.05) cm, thus 28.25 cm ≤ length < 28.35 cm.

Hope this information is helpful!

Kennedy has a gross income of $95,000. What is her total tax due?
AnnZ [10979]

Answer:

This brings her total gross income to $140,000 ($3,000 + $500 + $41,500 + $90,000 + $5,000), with her farm gross income being $95,000 ($90,000 + $5,000). Since 67.9% (which is at least two-thirds) of her gross income derives from farming ($95,000 ÷ $140,000 = .679), she qualifies for the special estimated tax rules designed for qualified farmers.
