So (40*8%+x)/(40+x)=20%.
(3.2+x)/(40+x)=0.2
3.2+x=8+0.2x
0.8x=4.8
x=6
So add 6 grams of salt.
In the market, the sales of eggs are priced according to the quantity. A vendor bought a batch of eggs at a price of 0.24 yuan each, but accidentally broke 12 eggs in the process of selling. The remaining eggs are sold at 0.28 yuan each, and the result is still 1 1.2 yuan's profit. How many eggs did the vendor buy at first?
Solution: Suppose the vendor bought X eggs at first.
List the equations according to the meaning of the question:
(X- 12)* 0.28-0.24 X = 1 1.2
0.28 x-3.36-0.24 x = 1 1.2
0.04X= 14.56
X=364
A: The vendor bought 364 eggs at first.
6. A workshop has 85 technicians. On average, each person can process 15 pieces of A or 10 pieces of B every day, and two pieces of A and three pieces of B are matched with one set. How many people are arranged to process parts A and B respectively to make the two parts processed every day just match?
Solution: Suppose it takes X people to arrange the production of A, then there are (85-x) people to produce B.
Because two A-type parts and three B-type parts are matched with one set, so
Therefore, the number of parts A multiplied by 3 can be equal to the number of parts B multiplied by 2.
16*x*3= 10*(85-x)*2
Solution: x=25
It takes 25 people to produce A and 60 people to produce B!
7. Hong Guang Electric Company can still make a profit of 20% by selling a certain color TV at 20% of the marked price. It is understood that the purchase price of this color TV is 1996 yuan. So what should the price of this color TV be?
Solution: Set the price to X yuan.
80%X= 1996×( 1+20%)
80%X= 2395.2
X=2994
8. A store can make a profit of 20% by selling a commodity at 20% of the marked price. If the purchase price of this commodity is per piece in 22 yuan, what is the list price of each commodity?
Solution: Set the price to X yuan.
80%X=22×( 1+20%)
80%X= 26.4
X=33
9. On a double-track railway, two trains passed head-on. The speed of train A is 20m/s and the speed of train B is 24m/s. If the total length of train A is 180m and the total length of train B is 160m, how many seconds will it take for the two trains to miss each other?
Solution: (180+160)/(20+24) = 7.28 seconds.
10, two students, A and B, walked in the same direction from two places 5 kilometers apart on the same road. Party A's speed is 5km/h, Party B's speed is 3 km/h, and Party A takes the dog. When Party A chases Party B, the dog chases Party B first, then returns to meet Party A, and then returns to chase Party B. It is known that the speed of the dog is 15km/h, and the total distance that the dog runs in this process is calculated.
Solution: First of all, it must be clear that the meeting time between Party A and Party B is equal to the running time of the dog.
So the dog's time = A/B meeting time = the sum of total distance /A/B speed.
=5km/(5km/h+3km/h) = 5/8h
So the distance of the dog = the time of the dog * the speed of the dog =5/8h* 15km/h=75/8km.
So Party A and Party B met and the dog walked 75/8 kilometers.
One day, Xiaohong and Liang Xiao used the temperature difference to measure the height of the mountain peak. The temperature of Xiaohong at the top of the mountain is-1 degree. The temperature in Liang Xiao is 5 degrees at the foot of the mountain. This place is well known.
Every time the height in this area increases by 100M, the temperature drops by about 0.6 degrees. How high is this mountain?
When the temperature rises by 65438 0 degrees, a metal wire will be extended by 0.002MM; conversely, when the temperature drops by 65438 0 degrees, the metal wire will be shortened by 0.002 mm. 15 degrees. When the wire is heated to 60 degrees and cooled to 5 degrees, what happens to the length of the wire? How much longer is the final length than the original length?
