Answer:
Please show us the questions and will help further this discussion.
Clue one tells you it ends in a 4 or 9.
Clue two tells you it has to be 9.
Clue three tells you x + 9 = 10
The number is 19
1/3=2/6
5/6x2/6= 10/36
10/36 simplified is 5/18
Answer:
First brand of antifreeze: 21 gallons
Second brand of antifreeze: 9 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call A the amount of first brand of antifreeze. 20% pure antifreeze
Let's call B the amount of second brand of antifreeze. 70% pure antifreeze
The resulting mixture should have 35% pure antifreeze, and 30 gallons.
Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:


Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.7 and add it to the second equation:



+

--------------------------------------



We substitute the value of A into one of the two equations and solve for B.
