whatever the amounts of "x" and "y" are, they must add up to 5Liters
thus x + y = 5
and whatever the concentrated quantity is in each, they must add up to (5)(0.14)
notice, that we use the decimal notation for the amount of juice concentration, that is, 15% is just 15/100 or 0.15, and 14% is just 14/100 or 0.14 and so on, recall that "whatever% of something" is just (whatever/100)*something
thus

solve for "x", to see how much of the 15% juice will be needed
what about "y"? well, y = 5 - x
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: number of minutes
y: final temperature
We write then the equation that models the problem:

For y = 20 we have:

Clearing x:
Answer:
The temperature of the water will be 20 degree celcius after 150 minutes
Answer:
- Son washed more
- Remaining 9/28 of the laundry
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Make denominators common to see the difference in fractions:</u>
Son washed more laundry as 12/28 > 7/28
<u>Together they washed:</u>
- 7/28 + 12/28 = 19/28 of the laundry
<u>Remaining part is:</u>
- 1 - 19/28 =
- 28/28 - 19/28 =
- 9/28 of the laundry
