Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion

2/13 = x / 39 Cross multiply

13*x = 2 * 39 Combine the right

13x = 78 Divide by 13

x = 78/13

x = 6

Why pick 13? Because the total must come to 39. You will make a mistake if you use 11 rather than 13. You must include the cleaner in the denominator. Very tricky question.

So the final answer is

Cleaner: 6

Water: 39 - 6 = 33 pints of water.

Very few of your classmates will get this if they are not in chemistry. You might even be told your answer is incorrect. It isn't.

Select the quadratic equation that has roots x=8 and x=-5

stellarik [79]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, x=8 and x=-5 are the roots.

Therefore, (x - 8) & (x - 5) will be factors.

Hence, required quadratic equation can be given as:

$(x - 8)(x - 5) =0 \\ \\ \therefore {x}^{2} + ( - 8 - 5) x+ ( - 8) \times ( - 5) = 0 \\ \\ \therefore {x}^{2} + ( - 13) x+ 40= 0 \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore {x}^{2} - 13x+ 40= 0 }} \\ is \: the \: required \: quadratic \: equation.$
