Answer:

8.46 gallons needed to be replaced

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the alcohol amount that replaced

-Original has concentration of 15% multiply by the amount of 10 ,which is equal to (0.15×10).

-Removed has concentration of 15% multiply by the amount of x ,which is equal to (0.15 × X).

-Added has concentration of 80% multiply by the amount of X ,which is equal to (0.8× X).

-Solution has concentration of 70% multiply by the amount of 10 ,which is equal to (0.70×10).

So that, the equation will be:

Solution=Original + added - removed

7=1.5+0.8x-0.15x

7-1.5=0.65x

0.65x=55

x=55/0.65

x=8.46

8.46 gallons needed to be replaced.

f(x)=(x+a)/b

or bf(x)=x+a

let f(x)=y

by=x+a

flip x and y

bx=y+a

or y=bx-a

or f^{-1}(x)=bx-a

also g(x) is inverse of f(x)

bx-a=cx-d

so b=c,a=d

again let g(x)=y

y=cx-d

flip x and y

x=cy-d

cy=x+d

y=(x+d)/c

or g^{-1}(x)=(x+d)/c

also f(x) is inverse of g(x)

so (x+a)/b=(x+d)/c

so a=d,b=c

so in either case a=d,b=c

take b=c=1

a=d=2

f(x)=(x+2)/1=x+2

g(x)=1x-2=x-2

so f(x) and g(x) are two parallel lines f(x) with y- intercept=1 and slope 0

g(x) with y-intercept -2 and slope 0

if we take b=c=2,a=d=3

f(x)=(x+3)/2=x/2+3/2

g(x)=2x-3

here f(x) is of slope 1/2 and y-intercept 3/2

g(x) is of slope 2 and y intercept -3

part 3.

f(f(x))=g((x+a)/b)=c[(x+a)/b]-d=(c/b)(x+a)-d
