Answer:

5/7 quart

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount = concentration × volume

Amounts added = final amount

100% × x + 20% × 5 = 30% × (x+5)

Solving for x:

1.00x + 0.2×5 = 0.3×(x+5)

x + 1 = 0.3x + 1.5

0.7x = 0.5

x = 5/7

x ≈ 0.7

You should add 5/7 quart of pure antifreeze, or about 0.7 quart.

Please HELPPPPP!!! <br><br> I DONT KNOW WHY IM GETTING THEM WRONG
Nady [450]

Answer:

n = -33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = number

Sum of a number and 9

(n+9)

is tripled

3(n+9)

the result is six less then twice the number

2n-6

3(n+9) = 2n-6

Distribute

3n+27 = 2n-6

Subtract 2n from each side

3n-2n +27 = -6

n +27 = -6

Subtract 27 from each side

n+27-27 = -6-27

n =-33

Find the value of x in the isosceles triangle shown below.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

D. x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this with the Pythagorean Theorem for the right triangle that we can see (which is half of the triangle).

The bottom length is 3 and the hypotenuse is 5.

The Pythagorean Theorem is a²+b²=c².

We can plug this in:

3²+x²=5²

9+x²=25

x²=16

x=4
