Twice the difference between x and k is 2(x-k)
Answer:
5.714 liters of the 5% solution and 4.286 of the 40%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the volume of 40% solution and y = volume of the 5% solution.
x + y = 10
0.40x + 0.05y = 0.20(x + y)
From the first equation x = 10 -y so we have:
0.40(10 - y) + 0.05y = 0.20( 10 - y + y)
4 - 0.40y + 0.05y = 2
-0.35y = -2
y = 5.714 liters of the 5%.
and x = 10 - 5.714 = 4.286 liters of the 40% solution.

Answer:
x=34
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
Subtract 6 from each side
6-6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3-6
- ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = -3
Divide each side by a negative
( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
Cube each side
( x-7) ^ 1/3 ^3 = (3)^3
x-7 = 27
Add 7 to each side
x-7+7 = 27+7
x = 34
Check
6 - ( 34-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
6 - (27^1/3 = 3
6 -3 =3
3=3
Good solution
36 feet + 9 feet
= 45 feet
You are correct! The distance from where Debbie and Andy are standing to the coral reef is 45 feet in total.
