A 40% antifreeze solution is to be mixed with a 70% antifreeze
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: 160 liters of the

40% solution and 80 liters of the 70% solution will be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of liters of 40% antifreeze solution that should be used.

Let y represent the number of liters of 70% antifreeze solution that should be used.

The volume of the mixture to be mixed is 240 liters. It means that

x + y = 240

The 40% antifreeze solution is to be mixed with a 70% antifreeze

solution to get 240 liters of a 50% solution. This means that

0.4x + 0.7y = 0.5(240)

0.4x + 0.7y = 120 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 240 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.4(240 - y) + 0.7y = 120

96 - 0.4y + 0.7y = 120

- 0.4y + 0.7y = 120 - 96

0.3y = 24

y = 24/0.3

y = 80

x = 240 - y = 240 - 80

x = 160

The sum of three numbers 13. The sum of twice the first number, five times the second number, and six times the third number is
Kruka [31]

Answer:

The three numbers are 56/5, -39/5 and 78/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

EQUATION 1:

First number: x

Second number: y

Third number: z

x + y + z = 19

EQUATION 2:

Sum of following is 77

Twice the first number: 2x

5 times the second number: 5y

6 times the third number: 6z

So, 2x + 5y + 6z = 77

EQUATION 3:

Difference between first and second number is 19.

x - y = 19

Equation 1: x + y + z = 19

Equation 2: 2x + 5y + 6z = 77

Equation 3: x - y = 19

1. Find x in terms of y

x - y = 19

x = 19 + y

2. Find y in terms of z by putting the value of x in first and second equation

  x + y + z = 19

  (19 + y)+ y + z = 19

  2y + z = 19 - 19

  2y + z = 0

  y = -z/2

and

2(19+y)+5y+6z=77

now putting the value of y in this equation

2(19-z/2)+5(-z/2)+6z=77

38 - z -5z/2 +6z = 77

5z/2 + 38 = 77

5z/2 = 39

z = 78/5

Now, y = -z/2

y = (-78/5)/2

y = -39/5

and  x = 19 + y

x = 19 - 39/5

x = 56/5

Therefore, the three numbers are 56/5, -39/5 and 78/5.

a car takes 8 hours to reach to its destination with a speed of 75km/hr. how much time will it take if the speed is 60km/hr?​
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = distance/time

s = d/t

d = st

d = 75 km/h * 8 h = 600 km

t = d/s

t = 600 km/(60 km/h) = 10 h

Answer: 10 hours

Ratios are these equivalent : 11/7 and 77/63 , 3/5 and 45/75 , 1/8 and 10/80 , and 2/9 and 18/81
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

11/7 = (11 x 9)/(7 x 9) = 99/63 > 77/63

3/5 = (3 x 15)/(5 x 15) = 45/75

1/8 = (1 x 10)/(8 x 10) = 10/80

2/9 = (2 x 9)/(9 x 9) = 18/81

Step-by-step explanation:

I hopes this helps
