Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What’s the question?
First off, let's change the percentage amounts to decimal format, thus, a pure antifreeze is 100% antifreeze, so it has a 100% concentration, thus if we were to add an amount of "x", then the amount on antifreeze in that will then be (100/100) * x, or 1x, or just "x".
the mixture will be say, "y" amount of 40% antifreeze, thus, the concentrated amount in it will be (40/100) * y or 0.4y.
thus

now, bear in mind that, whatever "x" is,
x + 6 = y <--- the amounts added must yield the amount of the mixture
and x + 0.6 = 0.4y <--- the contrated amounts sum will also add up to the mixture's
Answer:
Answer below, however this question is worded weirdly
Step-by-step explanation:
x(x - 0.37 ) = 12.6
simplify the equation
x^2 - 0.37x = 12.6
x^2 - 0.37x - 12.6 = 0
Answer:
400 sq. ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
We gotta find the length of a side:
First, we divide 80 by 4, because the perimeter of a square is (4 x side):
80 ft. / 4 = 20 ft.
Second, we doing the normal area of a square equation:
= 400 square ft.
Which leads to out answer of 400 sq. ft.
