-4 and 2 are the solutions, since that is where they intercept the x axis, and when plugged into the equation, make it true.
Answer:
8 pounds of 4% solution of borax
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the 4% solution
24 pounds of 12% solution
obtain a 10% solution of borax that is (x+24) pounds
4% is 0.04 and 12% is 0.12 , 10% is 0.1

solve the equation for x

so 8 pounds of 4% solution of borax

Answer:
Yellow Paint: 0.44736842105%
Red Paint: 0.19736842105%
Water: 0.35526315789%
Step-by-step explanation:
Yelow:
30 x 0.3 = 9
8 + 9 = 17
30 + 8 = 38
17/38 = 0.44736842105%
Red:
30 x 0.25 = 7.5
7.5/38 = 0.19736842105%
Water:
30 x 0.45 = 13.5
13.5/38 = 0.35526315789%
