Using factorization, we have:

Expand 2x

Factorize

Factor out 2x - 1

Split:

In both cases, solve for x


--- approximated
We have to set up 2 equations:
A) x + y = 10 liters
B) .05x + .25y = 10 * .10
Multiply equation B) by -4
B) -.2x - y = -4 then add to equation A)
A) x + y = 10 liters
.8x = 6 liters
x = 7.5 liters of 5%
y = 2.5 liters of 25%
I now how to do this, but I need a clearer picture. lol
Answer:
y= -7x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
this is the answer
Answer:
6.3
Step-by-step explanation:
8.5 - (-4.8)
Let's focus on - (-4.8)
if a negative number is subtracted, it reverses itself
In other words, if a negative number is being subtracted, it is the same as being added as a positive number
So we change the equation to
8.5 + 4.8 = 13.3
Now we subtract 7 from 13.3
Since positive 7 is being subtracted, the rule for -4.8 does not apply to it
13.3 - 7 = 6.3
