Mixture Problem 1. How much water should be added to 8 mL of 6% saline solution to reduce the concentration to 4%?

Amount of active ingredient is 0.04(8+x)= 0.32+0.4x

EQUATION:

active ingre. + active ingre. = active ingre

0.48 + 0 = 0.32 + 0.04x

0.16 = 0.04x

x=4ML (amount of water that must be added)

answer: idk

step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4
