-17 because it's the furthest one away from the number 0 on a number line the further from 0 if the number is negative the smaller it becomes. Hope this helps: )

Meg has a can that contains 80% of orange juice and the rest water. The can has 1 liter of water.

sammy [17]

<span>x is the total number of liters of orange juice and water combined. 80% of the mixture is pure orange juice which means 20% of it is water. Therefore, x 20/100 = 1 is the equation in single variable that can be used to find x. and 20/100 is 1/5 so there are 5 total liters in all and 5-1 is 4, so there are 4 liters of orange juice in the can. Hope this helps :)</span>
