Answer:
x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
x+12=8
x=8-12
Andre did not multiple both by four to get the exact whole number. He also, didnt subtract 12 which is not possible due to it being multiplied by 1/4.
I am assuming this is a triangle.....P = a + b + c
P = 2a - 3 + 2a + 3a + 1....combine like terms
P = 7a - 2 <==
Answer:
600 L of 30% proof and 400 L of 80% proof is needed
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of 30% smell proof be x while that of 80% smell proof is y
Then;
x + y = 1000 •••••(i)
Also;
30% of x + 80% of y = 50% of 1000
0.3x + 0.8y = 500 •••••(ii)
From i, x = 1000 - y
Put this into ii
0.3(1000-y) + 0.8y = 500
300 - 0.3y + 0.8y = 500
0.5y = 500-300
0.5y = 200
y = 200/0.5
y = 400 L
But x = 1000 - y
x = 1000 - 400 = 600 L
