A 140.5 L
B 145 L
C 149 L
D 154 L

Answer 1

the answer is C (149L) :D

Answer 2

149 liters of test solution (C)

Explanation:

We are given that 25 mL of dye are mixed with 1.5 L of water to create 1 bottle of solution. If we convert 25mL to L, we get that there is 0.025 L of dye in each solution, and the total amount of liquid in a bottle of test solution is 1.525 L (0.025 + 1.5). Since we have 98 bottles like, the total amount of test solution is 98*1.525, which is 149.45 L. Since we have to round to the nearest whole number, the answer is C, or 149 L.
