I don't know what the "six-step method" is supposed to be, so I'll just demonstrate the typical method for this problem.
Let <em>x</em> be the amount (in gal) of the 50% antifreeze solution that is required. The new solution will then have a total volume of (<em>x</em> + 60) gal.
Each gal of the 50% solution used contributes 0.5 gal of antifreeze. Similarly, each gal of the 30% solution contributes 0.3 gal of antifreeze. So the new solution will contain (0.5 <em>x</em> + 0.3 * 60) gal = (0.5 <em>x</em> + 18) gal of antifreeze.
We want the concentration of antifreeze to be 40% in the new solution, so we need to have
(0.5 <em>x</em> + 18) / (<em>x</em> + 60) = 0.4
Solve for <em>x</em> :
0.5 <em>x</em> + 18 = 0.4 (<em>x</em> + 60)
0.5 <em>x</em> + 18 = 0.4 <em>x</em> + 24
0.5 <em>x</em> - 0.4 <em>x</em> = 24 - 18
0.1 <em>x</em> = 6
<em>x</em> = 6/0.1 = 60 gal

i dont under stand sorry i cant help sorry
4^(12-4x)=256 realize that 256 is 4^4 so we really have:
4^(12-4x)=4^4 taking the natural log of both sides
(12-4x)ln4=4ln4 dividing both sides by ln4
12-4x=4 subtract 12 from both sides
-4x=-8 divide both sides by -4
x=2

Answer:
The pairs ( 1 , 2 ) and ( 2 , 1 ) are not equal because their respective elements are not equal.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pair of elements which are in specific order is called an ordered pair. The pair ( 1 , 2 ) is not same as the pair ( 2 , 1 ). In the pair ( 1 , 2 ) 1 is in the first position and 2 is in the second position. In the pair ( 2 , 1 ), 2 is in the first position and 1 is in the second position.
Two ordered pairs ( a , b ) and (c , d ) are said to be equal if a = c and b = d. We write ( a , b ) = ( c , d ).
Hope I helped!
