Answer:
<em>x = 9</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of equation of a line is expressed as y = mx+c
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
Note that the line does not have a slope and the x intercept of the line is a point where the line cuts the x axis. Hence the equation of the line will be expressed as x = c where c is the x intercept;
<em>From the graph, the x intercept =9. Hence the equation of the given line is x = 9</em>
Somebody? I think you can find someone like that in your school... nice profile picture.
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x-14)+9x=90, thus,
((3x-14)+9x)+90=180
90+90=180
My teacher taught me a simple equation for these types of problems:
(percent of solution × amount of solution) + (percent of solution × amount of solution) = (percent of solution × total amount of solution)
in simple terms: %amount + %amount = %total amount
We know don't know how much gallons of 60% solution we need so it will be represented as x. We dont know the total amount either so it would have to be both solutions added together so 50 + x. Now lets solve:
(0.60)(x) + (0.24)(50) = (0.50)(50 + x) simplify/ distribute
0.6x + 12 = 25 +0.5x get all xs on one side and numbers on other
0.1x + 12 = 25
0.1x = 13 divide both sides by 0.1 to find x
x = 130
You need 130 gallons of 60% solution.
