8/5x = 1
or
1.6x = 1
Work:
Add 7/3x and 1/3x to make 8/3x. Equation: 8/3x = 1 + 5/3x
Divide 8/3x by 5/3x, looks like 8 over 3 times 3 over 5. 3s cancel each other out, leaving 8/5x. Equation: 8/5x = 1
If needed to be simplified, 8/5 = 1.6.
Answer:
(1, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression
x+y = 4 ... 1
y = 2x+1 ....2
Substitute equation 2 into 1
x + (2x+1) = 4
3x + 1 = 4
3x = 4-1
x = 3/3
x = 1
Since y = 2x + 1
y = 2(1) + 1
y = 3
Hence the solution to the equation is (1,3). This means that the coordinate point on the graph where both lines intersect will be at (1, 3)

Answer:
Is there any answer choes or something?
Let <em>q</em> be the number of quarts of pure antifreeze that needs to be added to get the desired solution.
8 quarts of 40% solution contains 0.40 × 8 = 3.2 quarts of antifreeze.
The new solution would have a total volume of 8 + <em>q</em> quarts, and it would contain a total amount of 3.2 + <em>q</em> quarts of antifreeze. You want to end up with a concentration of 60% antifreeze, which means
(3.2 + <em>q</em>) / (8 + <em>q</em>) = 0.60
Solve for <em>q</em> :
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 0.60 (8 + <em>q</em>)
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 4.8 + 0.6<em>q</em>
0.4<em>q</em> = 1.6
<em>q</em> = 4
