Simplifying
2c + 3 = 3c + -4
Reorder the terms:
3 + 2c = 3c + -4
Reorder the terms:
3 + 2c = -4 + 3c
Solving
3 + 2c = -4 + 3c
Solving for variable 'c'.
Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3c' to each side of the equation.
3 + 2c + -3c = -4 + 3c + -3c
Combine like terms: 2c + -3c = -1c
3 + -1c = -4 + 3c + -3c
Combine like terms: 3c + -3c = 0
3 + -1c = -4 + 0
3 + -1c = -4
Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + -1c = -4 + -3
Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + -1c = -4 + -3
-1c = -4 + -3
Combine like terms: -4 + -3 = -7
-1c = -7
Divide each side by '-1'.
c = 7
Simplifying
c = 7

Answer:
2.86 quarts ( approx )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The initial quantity of the Mr. Gittleboro's radiator that contains 30% antifreeze = 10 quarts,
Let x quarts of pure antifreeze replaced x quarts of Mr. Gittleboro's radiator to bring it up to a required 50% antifreeze,
So, the quantity of 30% antifreeze radiator after drained off x quarts = (10-x) quarts
Also, the quantity of final antifreeze radiator 50% antifreeze = 10 quarts
Thus, we can write,
30% of (10-x) + 100% of x = 50% of 10
30(10-x) + 100x = 500
300 - 30x + 100x = 500
300 + 70x = 500
70x = 200
x = 2.85714285714 quarts ≈ 2.86 quarts
Jack should remove the maximum and minimum weight potatoes from the average weight of the potatoes to compensate for the extremes. Therefore, we are left with a data set of:
8, 9, 11, 7, 7, 8, 9, 7; so n = 8
The sum of these is 66
The average weight of each potato is:
66/8
= 8 ounces
