Let us represent the gallons of 65% antifreeze as x. If the total volume is 90 gallons, then the amount of 95% antifreeze can be written as (90 - x). Then we add up the total amount of antifreeze based on the volumes and percentages:
(0.65)x + (0.95)(90 - x) = (0.90)(90)
0.65x + 85.5 - 0.95x = 81
-0.3x = -4.5
x = 15
90 - x = 75
Therefore, 15 gallons of 65% antifreeze and 75 gallons of 95% antifreeze were used.

An above ground swimming pool is leaking after 1 and 1/2 hours the pool has leaked 7/8 of a gallon of water how many gallons of
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

In 1 hour the amount of water leaking from pool = \frac{7}{12} gallon of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The amount of Leaking of water from the pool = \frac{7}{8} gallon

The time taken fro leaking \frac{7}{8} gallon of water = 1 \frac{1}{2} gallon  hour

Or The time taken fro leaking \frac{7}{8} gallon of water = \frac{3}{2} hour

∵ \frac{3}{2} hour takes for leaking \frac{7}{8} gallon of water

∴ In 1 hour the amount of water leaking from pool = \frac{7}{8}\setminus \frac{3}{2}

Or, In 1 hour the amount of water leaking from pool = \frac{7}{12} gallon of water    Answer
