Answer:

42 gallons 45% antifreeze

28 gallons 95% antifreeze

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is volume of 45% antifreeze, and y is volume of 95% antifreeze, then the total volume is:

x + y = 70

And the total amount of antifreeze is:

0.45 x + 0.95 y = 0.65 (70)

Solving by substitution:

0.45 x + 0.95 (70 − x) = 0.65 (70)

0.45 x + 66.5 − 0.95 x = 45.5

21 = 0.5 x

x = 42

y = 28

Answer:

<h2>Step 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation  6x² + 24x + 7 = 0, the following steps must be followed when finding the roots using the completing the square method.

Step 1: Subtract 7 from both sides

6x² + 24x + 7 - 7= 0 -7

6x² + 24x = -7

Step 2: divide through by the coefficient of x²

6x²/6 + 24x/6 = -7/6

x² + 4x = -7/6

Step 3: Add half of the coefficient of x (i.e 4/2 = 2) to both sides of the equation to complete the square of the equation x² + 4x.

x² + 4x + 2= -7/6 + 2

(x+2)² = -7/6 + 2

(x+2)²  = 5/6

Step 4: taking the square root of both sides

√(x+2)²  = √5/6

x+2 = ±√5/6

x = -2±√5/6

x = -2+√5/6 and -2-√5/6

Based on the conclusion above, it can be seen that Yvonne made the first error in step 2. Yvonne suppose to divide through by the coefficient of x² (i.e 6)
