440 gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifreeze
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the gallons of 80 % antifreeze added
Therefore, "x" gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze
Final mixture is x + 80
Therefore, we can frame a equation as:
"x" gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get (x + 80) gallons of 70 % antifreeze
Thus, we get,
x gallons of 80 % + 80 gallons of 15 % = (x + 80) gallons of 70 %
Thus 440 gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed
Let
C---------> <span>the cost of a pizza
</span>t----------> <span>number of toppings
we know that
</span>$15.74-3t=$14.49-2t
15.74-14.49=3t-2t-------------> t=1.25
the cost of one topping is $1.25
and the cost of one pizza <span>without topping is
</span>15.74-3*1.25--------> $11.99
then
<span>an equation for the cost of a pizza, C, as a function of the number of toppings, t ordered is
</span>C=11.99+1.25t
the answer is
C=11.99+1.25t
1. Let x be the original amount of baseball cards,
2. half of x was lost so x divided by 2.
3. you buy 18 cards to replace some that were lost
4. You can find the awnser by subtracting 18 from 30, which is 12.
5. Now lets remember that half of your cards were lost. meaning that 12 is only half of what you started with.
6. 12 times 2 would be 24.
7. The Awnser is 24
8. To check your work, you can say x=24, 24 divided by 2 is 12, and 12 plus 18 is 30.
A. 2(3)+7
product is multiplication
increased is addition
He needs to earn ; 77.99-20= 57.99 dollars
so in one week there are 2 weekends; so he earns 6×3×2 = 36 dollars
so no of week = 57.99÷ 36= 1.6 weeks
so weeks are in natural no thus it will take him 2 weeks !!
