15% of 20 gal = 0.15 * 20 gal = 3 gal, so the solution contains 3 gal of salt.
If we add <em>x</em> gal of water to the solution, we end up with (20 + <em>x</em>) gal of solution. We want the new mixture to have a concentration of 10%, or
10% of (20 + <em>x</em>) gal = 0.1 * (20 + <em>x</em>) gal = 2 + 0.1<em>x</em> gal
of salt.
The amount of salt in the tank hasn't changed. Solve for <em>x </em>:
2 + 0.1<em>x</em> = 3
0.1<em>x</em> = 1
<em>x</em> = 10 gal
If RS is the hypotenuse of the triangle RST and point T is in Quadrant 3, then point T must be the intersection of the lines: x = - 4 and y = - 5.
Therefore, the coordinates of point T are ( x, y ) = ( - 4, - 5 )
Answer:
T ( - 4, - 5 )
Answer:
$22,500
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 of $15000 is $7500, $7500+$15000 is $22,500
The easiest way to find this answer is to work through it step by step.
She starts with 75 pieces.
She eats 5 pieces, so the # of pieces goes down from 75 to 75-5 = 70.
So she has 70 pieces left to put in the bags.
She puts the same amount in each of 10 bags... so we divide 70 by 10 to find the # of pieces in each bag.
70 divided by 10 is 7.
She put 7 pieces in each bag.
The one on the right is correct. please give brainliest.
