We have 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze.

How much 70% antifreeze do we add to get 60% antifreeze?

We'll make "x" the gallons of 70% we must add.

.20 * 60 + .70 x = .60 * (60 + x)

12 + .70x = 36 + .60x

.10x = 24

x = 240 gallons of 70% antifreeze.

Consider the function f(x) = 5x + 7. Which statement MUST be true? A) f(1) ? f(3) = f(3) ? f(1) B) f(1) ? f(3) = f(5) ? f(3) C)
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The answers are as follows for the functions.

f(1) = 12

f(3) = 22

f(5) = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

To find any of these, simply input the value in for x in the equation given.

f(1)

f(x) = 5x + 7

f(x) = 5(1) + 7

f(x) = 5 + 7

f(x) = 12

You can repeat this for each of them and it will allow you to use all of the numbers in the equations given.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

8.15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Monday: 1 1/10 miles = 1.1

Multiply by 10 to get to 100

Wednesday: 4 4/5 miles = 4.8

Multiply by 20 to get to 100

Friday: 2 1/4 miles = 2.25

Multiply by 25 to get to 100

1.1 + 4.8 + 2.25 = 8.15 miles

A mountain climber is at an elevation of 10,712 feet. After 4 hours, he is at an elevation of 8,884 feet. Find the climber’s ver
Illusion [34]
I am not sure about the formula but if you subtract 8,884 from 10,712 you get 1,828. Then, if you divide that by 4 you get 457. 457 fph(feet per hour) should be the climbers vertical speed.
