Answer:

<h2>400 L of orange punch</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

step one:

given data

orange punch is 45% juice and

mango punch is 20% juice.

amount of fruit punch to be made is

500 L of a fruit punch that is 40% juice.

Let x = the number of liters of orange punch in the fruit punch.

Then the number of liters of mango is 500 - x

The number of liters of orange + mango juice is

0.45x + 0.2(500 - x), and this must equal the number of liters

in the fruit punch, which is 0.4*500

0.45x + 100 - 0.2x = 200

solve for x

0.45x-0.2x+100-200=0

0.25x-100=0

0.25x = 100

x=100/0.25

x = 400 L

<u>400 L of orange punch</u>

Anna [14]
Yes, it is reasonable for Brittany to think that she will need more than 2 batches of cookies to feed all of the people at her school.


One batch of dough makes 2 dozen cookies, or 24 cookies.
This means that two batches of dough makes 4 dozen cookies, or 48 cookies.

If Brittany only brought 48 cookies to school, some kids wouldn't get cookies.  So, we know that Brittany should probably bake more than 2 batches of cookies.

Use the commutative property of addition to write an expression equivalent to the following.
defon
<h3>Answer:  b+5a</h3>

Explanation:

The commutative property of addition is where we can add two numbers in any order.

The general equation is x+y = y+x

A more concrete example would be something like 2+3 = 3+2 since both sides simplify to 5.

For 5a+b, it is the same as b+5a. We swap the two terms.
