<span>x is the total number of liters of orange juice and water combined. 80% of the mixture is pure orange juice which means 20% of it is water. Therefore, x 20/100 = 1 is the equation in single variable that can be used to find x. and 20/100 is 1/5 so there are 5 total liters in all and 5-1 is 4, so there are 4 liters of orange juice in the can. Hope this helps :)</span>

Which of the following systems of equations has no solution?
Law Incorporation [45]
For option d:
5x - 7y = 10 . . . . . (1)
10x - 14y = 8 . . . . (2)

(1) x 2 => 10x - 14y = 20 . . . . . (3)

(2) - (3) => 0 = -14              [not possible]

Therefore, the set of equations in option d, has no solutions.

when a jug is 1/5 full and it weighs 250 grams next it 4/5 full and weighs 550 grams what is the weight of the jug?
AleksAgata [21]
X=weight of the jug
y=witht of liquid when the jug is full
we suggest this system of equations:
x+y/5=250
x+4y/5=550
we solve this system of equations by equalization method. 
x=250-y/5
x=550-4y/5
250-y/5=550-4y/5
least common multiple=5
1250-y=2750-4y
-y+4y=2750-1250
3y=1500
y=1500/3
y=500 

x=250-y/5
x=250-500/5
x=250-100
x=150

Answer: weight of the jug = 150grams.

11. A roofer calculates his bid price using the formula P = 1.85s + 4.2f, where s is the area of the roof in square feet and f i
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

s = 1,811 square foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the area of the roof.

The best way to proceed here is by substitution.

We simply substitute the length and the price into the bid price equation to get the area of the roof.

From the original equation, the formula to use is ;

P = 1.85s + 4.2f

now from what we are given; s = ?

f = 190 feet and P = $4148

substituting these values, we have;

4148 = 1.85s + 4.2(190)

4148 = 1.85s + 798

1.85s = 4148 -798

1.85s = 3350

s = 3350/1.85

s = 1,810.810810810811

To the nearest square foot, s = 1,811
