3+5x=-14-7x
17=-12x
-17/12=x
there is one solution
Answer:
water : 90 ounces
salt solution: 90 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Call w the amount of water and call the solution containing 30% salt.
We want to get 180 ounces of a mixture with 15% salt.
So:
The amount of mixture will be:

the amount of salt will be



Now we substitute the value of s in the first equation and solve for w


Every positive real number has TWO<span>square roots; One is positive and one is negative. They are opposites of each other. </span>
10 is a square root of 100 because (10)(10) = 100, and ̶ 10 is also a square root of 100 because ( ̶ 10)( ̶ 10) = 100.
In general, “a” is a square root of “b” if a² = b, where “a” is a real number and b ≥ 0.
In conclusion:
<span> √(100) = </span>10<span> (the </span>positive<span> square root of 100) </span>and<span> </span>
<span> ̶ √(100) = ̶ (10) = </span>̶ 10<span> (the </span>negative<span> square root of 100)</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A + B= 180°
(5x+20)+(9x-92)=180°
14x-72=180°
14x=252
x=18
A=5(18)+20
A=110
