With 5lbs of sugar syrup to get a 25% syrup you would need to add 15lbs of water
Answer:
11, 13 and 15.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that the odd number is "x". If x is for example 15, then the next ODD number would be 15+2=17 and the one after that would be 15+2+2=15+4=19.
Applying that here, we get:
Odd number* the next odd number*the next odd number=2145
x*(x+2)*(x+4)=2145
x*(x^2+4x+2x+8)=2145
x^3+6x^2+8x=2145
By solving the polynomial, you get x=11.
Which makes our three numbers: 11, 13 and 15.
11*13*15=2145. The answer checks.
Answer:
d). 3/5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The greatest common factor of 18 and 30 is 6, so we divide top and bottom of the fraction by 6:
18/30
= (18/6) / (30/6)
= 3/5.
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. isolate the variable by subtracting 7 on both sides: 4x=23-7
2. simplify: 4x=16
3. divide both sides by 4: x=16/4
4. simplify: x=4
