Answer: In the last steps, instead of multiply each side by 3, he has to divide each side by 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, Tobin makes the mistake in the last steps.

3(x-1.25) = 11.25  

3x-3.75= 11.25  

3x-3.75+3.75= 11.25+3.75  

3x = 15

Until this step is the work ok.

Now, instead of multiply each side by 3, he has to divide each side by 3:

So:

3x /3 = 15/3

x = 5

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

The product of 4 and the sum of a number x and 8
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

8(x+3)

Explanation:

"The product of 8 and" means 8 is going to be multiplied times another quantity. "...the sum of a number x and 3" means that 8 is going to be multiplied times (x+3).

This is represented by 8×(x+3), which simplifies to 8(x+3).

Find how many quarts of 6% butterfat milk and 1% butterfat milk should be mixed to yield 75 quarts of 3% butterfat milk.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

30 gallons of 6% milk, and 45 gallons of 1% milk.

x=quarts of 6% butterfat

First, write an equation.

0.06x+0.01(75-x)=0.03*75

Multiply both sides by 100.

0.06x*100+0.01*100(75-x)=100*0.03*75

Simplify

6x+75-x=3*75

6x+75-x=225

Solve

5x=225-75=150

5x=150

x=30

75-30=45

So, we need 30 gallons of 6% milk, and 45 gallons of 1% milk.
