Answer:
20, 60, 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the third number be n, then
The first number is n + 5 and the second number is 4n
Sum the 3 numbers and equate to 95, that is
n + 5 + 4n + n = 95 ← collect like terms on left side
6n + 5 = 95 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
6n = 90 ( divide both sides by 6 )
n = 15
Thus
The first number is 15 + 5 = 20
The second number is 4 × 15 = 60
The third number is 15
1 ÷ 4 1/4 so one lap is a quarter of a mile meaning 3 laps is 3/4 of a mile
Let <em>q</em> be the number of quarts of pure antifreeze that needs to be added to get the desired solution.
8 quarts of 40% solution contains 0.40 × 8 = 3.2 quarts of antifreeze.
The new solution would have a total volume of 8 + <em>q</em> quarts, and it would contain a total amount of 3.2 + <em>q</em> quarts of antifreeze. You want to end up with a concentration of 60% antifreeze, which means
(3.2 + <em>q</em>) / (8 + <em>q</em>) = 0.60
Solve for <em>q</em> :
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 0.60 (8 + <em>q</em>)
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 4.8 + 0.6<em>q</em>
0.4<em>q</em> = 1.6
<em>q</em> = 4
