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.

Do you agree with the researchers method of predicting the population? Why or why not?
Burka [1]

Yes, I agree with the researcher's method. All the values of a_{n} in the table correspond to the values of n by using their formula.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

If we substitute the values of n in the researcher's equation and we get the right values of a_{n}, we can agree with the researcher's method.

The researcher's formula is a_{n} = 1000(2)^{n-1}. Here a_{n} is the wombat population and n is the number of years.

Step 2:

When n = 1, a_{1} = 1000(2)^{1-1} =  1000(1) = 1,000,

when n = 2, a_{2} = 1000(2)^{2-1} = 1000(2) = 2,000,

when n = 3, a_{3} = 1000(2)^{3-1} = 1000(4) = 4,000,

when n = 4, a_{4} = 1000(2)^{4-1} = 1000(8) = 8,000,

when n = 5, a_{5} = 1000(2)^{5-1} = 1000(16) = 16,000.

As all the values correspond to the values on the table, I agree with the researcher's method.

NEED HELP ASAP!!! ALGEBRA 1 STUFF (20pts.)

It's not actually 20 pts it's 10 pts if you send a question and you want 20 pts off it would be 10 for other ppl. like 

10pts off = 5
20pts off = 10
30pts off = 15

and so on so it's like counting by 5's each time you lose points
