Pete starts with 4 quarts of 20% juice, which contains
0.20 • (4 quarts) = 0.8 quarts
of juice.
If he mixes this with <em>x</em> quarts of 60% juice, which contains
0.60 • (<em>x</em> quarts) = 0.6<em>x</em> quarts
of juice, then he would end up with a mixture with a volume of (<em>x</em> + 4) quarts that contains (0.8 + 0.6<em>x</em>) quarts of juice. The mix has to have a concentration of 50% juice, which means
(0.8 + 0.6<em>x</em>) / (<em>x</em> + 4) = 0.50
Solve for <em>x</em> :
0.8 + 0.6<em>x</em> = 0.50 (<em>x</em> + 4)
0.8 + 0.6<em>x</em> = 0.5<em>x</em> + 2
0.1<em>x</em> = 1.2
<em>x</em> = 12
So Pete needs 12 quarts of the 60% juice.
Graph the absolute value by using the vertex and a few selected points
Point One: X= -1, Y= -8
Point Two: X= 0, Y= -2
Point Three: X= 1, Y= 4
Point Four: X= 2, Y= -2
Point Five: X= 3, Y= -8
The graph should look something like a mountain or an upside down V

Step-by-step explanation:
To complete the table it is necessary to know the possibilities that the sergeant has to change or remain in an intersection. The probabilities (depending on the box) are:
<h3>How to calculate the probability of intersection change?
</h3>
To know the probability of intersection change, it is necessary to locate the police officer at one of the intersections. Subsequently, count how many possibilities of change you have, for example: 3 possibilities and finally add the possibility of remaining in the intersection as shown below:
- Intersection 3 has 3 possibilities of changing towards intersections 2, 8 and 4. Additionally, it has the possibility of staying at intersection 3, that is, it has 4 possible decisions.
To know the probability we divide the number 1 (because it is only a decision that we have to make) and divide it by the number of possibilities (4).
According to the image we can infer that in some intersections they only have 3, 4 and 5 possibilities, so the probability of change will be different as shown below:
- 1 ÷ 3 = 0.33
- 1 ÷ 4 = 0.25
- 1 ÷ 5 = 0.2
