90% of "a" is 44.......turn ur percent into a decimal...." of " means multiply..." is " means equals...
0.90a = 44...divide both sides by 0.90
a = 44 / 0.90
a = 48.89.....this is rounded
what is 30% of 3a.....and we know that "a" is 48.89...
0.30(3 * 48.89) = 0.30(146.67) = 44 <=== ur answer
Answer:
First brand of antifreeze: 21 gallons
Second brand of antifreeze: 9 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call A the amount of first brand of antifreeze. 20% pure antifreeze
Let's call B the amount of second brand of antifreeze. 70% pure antifreeze
The resulting mixture should have 35% pure antifreeze, and 30 gallons.
Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:


Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.7 and add it to the second equation:



+

--------------------------------------



We substitute the value of A into one of the two equations and solve for B.


The equation would be b = -a or a = -b
I hope this helps :)
Log3 9=2
Explanation:
logo a= n <—> a = b^n
—-> 3^2 = 9 —> log3 9= 2
