A suitable equation will equate the quantity of detergent both before and after the water is added to the solution.

the amount of detergent in 11 gal of 18% solution is the same as the amount of detergent in the 12% solution (after g gallons of water are added)
  .18*11 = .12*(11+g)

Answer:

\frac{1.98}{11+g}=\frac{12}{100}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total quantity of solution = 11 gallons

Initial detergent in the solution = 18 % of 11 gallons

=\frac{18\times 11}{100}

=\frac{198}{100}

=1.98\text{ gallons}

Now, here g represents the number of gallons of water she should add to make 12 % detergent solution,

Final quantity of solution = ( 11 + g ) gallons

Thus, we can write,

The part of detergent in (11+g) gallons of water = The final percentage of detergent

\frac{1.98}{11+g}=\frac{12}{100}

Which is the required equation.

Determine the measure of each indicated angle. Show all necessary steps!
Mariana [72]

The measure of the unknown angle are; a) x = 89 degrees, b) p = 92 degrees.

<h3>What is the sum of all the angles of a regular polygon?</h3>

For a regular polygon of any number of sides, the sum of its exterior angle is 360°.

We already know that a 4-sided polygon's angles add up to 360 degrees.

So to find the value of x:

69 + 118 + 84 + x = 360

x = 360 - (69 + 118 + 84)

x = 89 degrees

b)

For a 4-sided polygon, we also know that the outside angles add up to 360 degrees.

So to find the value of p:

100 + 62 + 106 + p = 360

p = 360 - (100 + 62 + 106)

p = 92 degrees
