A pharmacist has a 12% solution and a 20% solution of boric acid. How much of each should she use to make 80 grams of a 15% solution?

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80

Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.

We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.

We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.

x = 80 - y

.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12

9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12

.08y = 2.4

y = 30

x = 80 - 30 = 50

explanation:

infrared radiation has wavelength in the range between 700 nm and 1 mm. lets' convert these values into scientific notation, keeping in mind that:

let's start from the lower value, we have:

(we moved the dot two places to the left, so we increased the exponent by 2 units, from -9 to -7)

the higher value is:

so, the range of wavelength of infrared radiation is:
