Please solve the inequality: -15< or equal to 5(3p-2) and is < and equal to 20

Levart [38]

It has been awhile since I worked with in qualities but I got the answer, -1/3 < or equal to p < or equal to 2. I multiplied the 5 in the middle of the equation with what's in parentheses to get 15p - 10, then I added 10 to both outer sides of the equation and got -5 < or equal to 15p < or equal to 30. Then lastly I divided 15 by -5 and 30! I hope that's right.. I'm sorry if it isn't!

How many gallons of 60% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 70 gallons of 20% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 50% antifre

Papessa [141]

Answer:

Answer: Add 315 gallons of 70% antifreeze to 90 gallons of 25% antifreeze to make a 60% mixture.

You need to end up a mixture that is 60% antifreeze.

You have 90 gallons of 25% antifreeze, which means it has .25*90 = 22.5 gallons of pure antifreeze mixed with a solvent (probably water).

You will add 'x' gallons of 70% antifreeze to make the 60% mixture.

So, at the conclusion, you will have (90+x) gallons 60% 'pure' antifreeze. That can be shown with the equation:

.25*90 + .7*x = .6*(90+x)

Multiply by 100 to eliminate fractions.

25*90 + 70x = 60(90 +x)

2250 + 70x = 5400 + 60x

10x = 5400 -2250

10x = 3150

x = 315 gallons of 70% antifreeze.

How much will you end up having on hand?

90 + 315 = 405 gallons

If it is 60% antifreeze, how much 'pure' antifreeze will be in the mixture?

.6*405 = 243

In the original 90 gallons, you have 22.5 gallons of pure antifreeze.

In the additional 315 gallons, you have .7*315 = 220.5 gallons.

22.5+220.5 = 243 gallons
