With amounts measured in gallons, let
x = amount of 65% antifreeze
y = amount of 90% antifreeze
1 gal of the 65% brand contains 0.65 gal of pure antifreeze; x gal would contain 0.65x gal. Similarly, y gal of the 90% brand contains 0.90y gal of pure antifreeze.
To obtain 120 gal of 80% antifreeze solution (which contains 0.80•120 = 96 gal of pure antifreeze), we must have
x + y = 120 … … … … … [total volume of antifreeze solution]
0.65x + 0.90y = 96 … [total volume of pure antifreeze]
Solve the first equation for y :
y = 120 - x
Substitute this into the second equation and solve for x :
0.65x + 0.90 (120 - x) = 96
0.65x + 108 - 0.90x = 96
0.25x = 12
x = 48
Solve for y :
y = 120 - 48
y = 72
We are given that the titanic is found 3,797 m below sea level. This is simply equivalent to 3.797 km or 3.8 km when rounded off to one decimal.
We should take note that the letter k in km means kilo and a kilo is equivalent to 1000. So this means that for 1 km there is exactly 1000 m. So to convert, simply multiply a value with unit m with this conversion factor. Conversion factor = 1 km / 1000 m
Depth of titanic = 3,797 m (1 km / 1000 m)
Depth of titanic = 3.797 km = 3.8 km
8 and 4.
To find the numbers, just divide 32 by whole numbers until you get a whole number as an answer, and try adding those to get the number you need to get.
-3. Put the two equation equal to each other and solve.
4x+18=2x+12
-2x=-2x
2x+18=12
-18=-18
2x=-6
2x/2=-6/2
x=-3
