How much water should be added to 1 gallon of pure antifreeze to obtain a solution that is 40% antifreeze

1 answer:

6 0

Let the necessary amount of water be x. Then (1.00)(1 gallon antifreeze) = 0.40(x+1 gallon), or 1 = .40x + .40. Combining like terms: 0.60 = 0.40x.

Then x = 0.60 / 0.40 = 1.5.

Adding 1.5 gallons of water to that 1 gallon of pure antifreeze results in 2.5 gallons of 40% antifreeze.

HELP ME QUICK: Suppose AB has one endpoint at A(0, 0). If (5, 3) is the midpoint of AB, what are the coordinates of point B?

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If P is midpoint of AB and: $A(0,\,0)\,,\quad P(5,\,3)\,,\quad B(x_B,\,y_B)$

then:

$x_P-x_A=x_B - x_P\qquad\quad\ \wedge\qquad y_P-y_A=y_B - y_P\\\\ 5-0=x_B-5\qquad\quad\wedge\qquad 3-0=y_B -3\\\\ x_B=5+5\qquad\qquad\wedge\qquad\ \ y_B=3+3 \\\\ {}\quad x_B=10\qquad\qquad\wedge\qquad\qquad \ y_B=6$
