Answer:

7.5 liters of a 10% antifreeze solution AND

7.5 liters of a 40% antifreeze solution

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,we were asked to find out how many liters of 10% anti freeze solution and 40% anti freeze each to make a 15 liters 25% mixture

Let’s call

the amount of liters needed of our 10% solution “x”. So, how

many liters do we need of the 40% solution? Well, there are 15

liters in total, x liters have been spoken for, so what remains

of our allotted 10 liters then, is 15-x.

Now let's solve for "x"

10% of x + 40% of (15 - x) = 25% of 15 liters

0.1x + 0.4(15 - x) = 0.25(15)

0.1x + 6 - 0.4x = 3.75

Collect the like terms and we have

0.3x = 2.25

x = 2.25 × 3

X = 7.5(Liters for the 10% anti freeze solution)

The 40% solution= 15 - 7.5 = 7.5 liters

Since "X" was used to fill for the unknown amount of 10% anti freeze solution,we have 7.5 liters of the 10% solution and another 7.5 liters for the 40% solution to end up with 15 liters of the desired 25% solution.

Notice the tickmark on the angles, those angles are equal to each other.

now, notice the angle at the very top, the large triangle is really sharing it with smaller-inscribed triangle, and therefore is equal on both triangles.

therefore, the larger triangle, is similar with smaller-inscribed triangle by AA.

what the dickens does that mean?

\bf \cfrac{large}{small}\qquad \cfrac{4+5}{4}=\cfrac{5+x}{5}\implies \cfrac{9}{4}=\cfrac{5+x}{5}\implies 45=20+4x
\\\\\\
25=4x\implies \cfrac{25}{4}=x\implies 6\frac{1}{4}=x

Leftover Expression
Mumz [18]

The second leftover expression is not o(a+b). It is 6(a + b). I have attached the correct question to depict that.

Answer:

The equivalent expressions are;

8a + 2 and 6a + 6b

Step-by-step explanation:

The two leftover expressions are given as;

2(4x + 1) and 6(a + b)

In algebra, equivalent expressions are simply those expressions which when simplified, give the same resulting expression as the initial one.

Thus simply means expanding or collecting like times to make it clearer.

Now, in our question, like terms have already been collected. This means that to find an equivalent expression, we will just expand the bracket.

Thus;

2(4x + 1) will be expanded by using the 2 outside the bracket to multiply the terms inside the bracket. This gives;

8x + 2

Similarly,

6(a + b) will be expanded by using the 2 outside the bracket to multiply the terms inside the bracket. This gives;

6a + 6b

Thus;

The equivalent expressions are;

8a + 2 and 6a + 6b
