Answer:
169.5 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
See attachment.
In situations like this, ALWAYS (!) make as sketch.
Divide the areas by adding dotted lines on sensible places, and write in the missing numbers for the correct distances.
The only possible difficult one is the triangle, which is the half of a rectangle. So you are dealing with a series of areas of rectangles. That is really easy if you understand what you are doing.
Total area =
area 1 + area 2 + area 3 + area 4
10*4 + 4*7 + 3*13 + (0.5 * 7*17)
40 + 28 + 42 + 59.5
Total area = 169.5 yd²
15% of 20 gal = 0.15 * 20 gal = 3 gal, so the solution contains 3 gal of salt.
If we add <em>x</em> gal of water to the solution, we end up with (20 + <em>x</em>) gal of solution. We want the new mixture to have a concentration of 10%, or
10% of (20 + <em>x</em>) gal = 0.1 * (20 + <em>x</em>) gal = 2 + 0.1<em>x</em> gal
of salt.
The amount of salt in the tank hasn't changed. Solve for <em>x </em>:
2 + 0.1<em>x</em> = 3
0.1<em>x</em> = 1
<em>x</em> = 10 gal
