\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&amount(gallons)&juice&\textit{juice amount}\\
&--------&-----&-----\\
\textit{50\% punch}&4&0.50&(4)(0.50)\\
\textit{pure juice}&x&1.00&(x)(1.00)\\
-----&-----&-----&-----\\
mixture&4+x&0.60&(4+x)(0.60)
\end{array}

notice, that, pure juice is 100% juice, dohhh, thus 100/100 = 1.00
50% is 50/100 or 0.50 in decimal format

so..... whatever those two quantities amount to, that is, the 50% and pure juice, or (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00)
they will equal the mixture desired 60% juice, or 0.60, namely (4+x)(0.60)

thus    (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00) = (4+x)(0.60)

solve for "x"

Solve the system of equations.
algol [13]
8x + 5(-4x) = 24
8x - 20x = 24
-12x = 24
x = -2

y = -4(-2)
y = 8

Therefore, the point of intersection is (-2,8).

Brut [27]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) = 4x - 2 and g(x) = 2x + 7 then which of the following gives f(g(3))?

g(3) = 2*3+7 = 6+7 = 13

f(g(3))=f(13) = 4* 13 -2= 52 -2 = 50

Answer:

122 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The two intersecting lines are parallel for this problem, which means that the angle next to angle3 is the same degree measure as the one that is 58 degrees.

Also, remember that two angles next to each other on a straight line are supplementary, meaning that they add to 180 degrees.

When keeping these two things in mind, you can solve like this:

180 = angle3 + 58

180 - 58 = angle3

angle3 = 122

122 degrees
