I would say the answer is A and E
Answer:
1.58 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
2x + -3(3 * 0.6x + 2.7)
Multiply 3 * 0.6
2x + -3(1.8x + 2.7)
Reorder the terms:
2x + -3(2.7 + 1.8x)
2x + (2.7 * -3 + 1.8x * -3)
2x + (-8.1 + -5.4x)
Reorder the terms:
-8.1 + 2x + -5.4x
Combine like terms: 2x + -5.4x = -3.4x
-8.1 + -3.4x
Work in amount of pure acid let x = gallons of pure acid required.
then we have the equation:-
x + 55(0.6) = 0.80(x + 55)
x + 33 = 0.80x + 44
0.20x = 11
x = 11/0.2 = 55 gallons answer
