Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be gallons of 7%
Let y be gallons of 3%
364 = x + y
y = 364 - x
364(0.06) = x(0.07) + y(0.03)
364(6) = x(7) + y(3)
364(6) = 7x + 3y
364(6) = 7x + 3(364 - x)
364(6 - 3) = 7x - 3x
364(3) = 4x
x = 273
y = 364 - 273 = 91
273 gallons of 7%
91 gallons of 3%
The missing number is the square-root of the constant term on the left-hand-side, which equals sqrt(1/16)=1/sqrt(16)=1/4.
Check:
(x+1/4)^2=x^2+2*(1/4)x+(1/4)^2=x^2+x/2+1/16. ok
Answer: x= 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
7 - 3b-2(0 + 3 - 2b)
To simplify the expression in the box, Fatua used
these steps:
Step 1:7 - 3b-2(3 - 3b)
Step 2:7 - 3-6-36-
Step 3: -13 - 66
Did Fatua calculate correctly? if nnot, in what step
did she make her FIRST mistake?
