Hey erika and the answer is 25 minutes
Answer:
8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
i put equations as this:
x+40 = y
where x is galllons of pure mixture and y is the gallons of the new mixture
the other equation i id was:
x+0.2(40) = 0.25y
x+8 = 0.25y
y = 4x+32
solve using substitution
(x+40) = 4x+32
x = 4x-8
-3x = -8
x = 8/3
PART 1:
Jeremy gives the correct answer.
The value of 0.41 [with a bar over the digit 4 and 1] shows that the digit 4 and 1 are reoccurring = 0.414141414141414141....
Jenny's assumption of 41/100 will give a decimal equivalency of 0.41 [without a bar over digit 4 and 1]. This value is not a reoccurring decimal value.
PART 2:
The long division method is shown in the picture below
PART 3:
As mentioned in PART 1, the result of converting 41/100 into a decimal is 0.41 [non-reoccuring decimal] while converting 41/99 into a decimal is 0.41414141... [re-occuring decimal]. The conjecture in PART 1 is correct
The direct variation between x and y may be written as,
y = kx
where k is the constant of variation. From the first set of values of the variables,
12 = k(8)
the value of k is 1.5. Substituting the next set to the same equation,
y = 1.5(14)
The value of y is 21.
