The gallons of the first brand of antifreeze should be 60 gallons.

The gallons of the second brand of antifreeze should be 90 gallons.

<h3>What are the linear equations that represent the question?</h3>

0.2f + 0.45s = 52.50 (0.35 x 150) equation 1

f + s = 150  equation 2

Where:

  • f = gallons of the first antifreeze
  • s =  gallons of the second antifreeze

how many gallons of each brand of antifreeze must be used?

Multiply equation 2 by 0.2

0.2f + 0.2s = 30 equation 3

Subtract equation 3 from equation 2

0.25s = 22.50

s = 22.50 / 0.25

s = 90

f = 150 - 90 = 60 gallons
