3 0

$Hello.
$
$Convert.$
$5 = 80/16$
$80/16 - 7/16 = 73/16$
$Simplify.$
$73/16 = 4 \frac{9}{16}$
$Thus, 5 - 7/16 = 4 \frac{9}{16}$
You're welcome.

The answer is C.

This is because 7 must be greater than 12-g.

G cannot equal 5 and below because 12-5=7.

Therefore C is the only answer that works.

Variables - a quantity that may change, depends on the context of the math problem. Ex: x,y
Terms - a variable, or constant, that is multiplied by a variable or variables.
Ex: 5x + 2 + 3y <-- has 3 terms
Coefficient - the constant that multiplies the variable and is next to a variable, Ex: (5x) <-- coefficient is 5
Constants - A fixed value such as 5, 6, 7, etc

A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 20% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 70% pure anti

andre [41]

Answer:

First brand of antifreeze: 21 gallons

Second brand of antifreeze: 9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of first brand of antifreeze. 20% pure antifreeze

Let's call B the amount of second brand of antifreeze. 70% pure antifreeze

The resulting mixture should have 35% pure antifreeze, and 30 gallons.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

$A + B = 30$

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:

$0.2A + 0.7B = 0.35 * 30$

$0.2A + 0.7B = 10.5$

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.7 and add it to the second equation:

$-0.7A -0.7B = -0.7*30$
