4 0

Answer:

Hi,

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose you want an integer solution.

Let's say

a the number of gallons of 35% alcohol

b the number of gallons of 50% alcohol

\dfrac{35}{100}*a+\dfrac{50}{100}*b=\dfrac{40}{100}*6\\\\35*a+50*b=240\\\\7a+10b=48\\\\b=\dfrac{48-7a}{10}\\\\a=4+10*n\\\\b=\dfrac{48-7*(4+10*n)}{10}=2-7*n\\\\As\ b\ must\ be\ a\ positive\ number \ n=0\\\\so\ b=2\ and\ a= 4

HELP?? If one is added to a number and the sum is tripled the result is 19 more then the number. Find the number. Um?
Viefleur [7K]
<h3><u>The value of x is equal to 8.</u></h3>

3(x + 1) = 19 + x

<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>

3x + 3 = 19 + x

<em><u>Subtract x from both sides.</u></em>

2x + 3 = 19

<em><u>Subtract 3 from both sides.</u></em>

2x = 16

<em><u>Divide both sides by 2.</u></em>

x = 8

How many 4-digit numbers are neither multiples of 2 nor multiples of 5?
Gwar [14]

There are 10,000 total four-digit numbers (1000 through 9999).

Multiples of 2 end in 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8. There are 9*10*10*5 = 4500 four-digit multiples of 2.

Multiples of 5 end in 0 or 5. There are 9*10*10*2 = 1800 four-digit multiples of 5.

There is redundancy between the two sets of numbers, namely those that end in 0, which are both multiples of 2 and 5. There are 9*10*10*1 = 900 four-digit multiples of both 2 and 5.

Then there are 4500 + 1800 - 900 = 5400 total four-digit numbers that are either multiples of 2 or 5, which means the remaining 4600 numbers are neither multiples of 2 nor 5.
