Answer:

5(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

GCF = 55

2 Factor out the GCF. (Write the GCF first. Then, in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF.)

5(\frac{5x}{5}+\frac{15}{5})5(

)

3 Simplify each term in parentheses.

5(x+3)5(x+3)

A restaurant owner was experimenting with the taste of her homestyle lemon drink. She started with 60 litres of water. She remov

Burka [1]

Answer:

ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the homestyle lemon drink is 5 : 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve the final ratio of lemon juice to water, let us start by determining the initial ratio of pure lemon juice to water in the first mix. This is done as follows:

Total volume of mixture = 60 liters

initial volume of water = 60 liters

initial volume of lemon juice = 0 liters

1) She removed 15 liters of the water and replaced it with 15 liters of pure lemon juice.

Volume of water = 60 - 15 = 45 liters

Volume of lemon juice = 15 liters

$\therefore \frac{15}{60}\ = \frac{1}{4}\ of\ the\ first\ mix\ is\ lemon\ juice\\\frac{45}{60}\ = \frac{3}{4}\ of\ the\ first\ mix\ is\ pure\ water$

2) She removed 10 liters of the new mixture

Let us convert this amount removed into ratio:

$lemon\ juice\ = \frac{1}{4}\ \times 10 = \frac{10}{4} = \frac{5}{2}\ liters.\\ \therefore the\ owner\ removes\ \frac{5}{2}\ liters\ of\ pure\ lemon\ juice\\pure\ water\ = \frac{3}{4}\ \times 10 = \frac{30}{4} = \frac{15}{2}\ liters\\ \therefore\ the\ owner\ removes\ \frac{15}{2}\ liters\ of\ water\ from\ the\ first\ mix.$

New volumes of water and lemon juice after removing the 10 liters of mixture is calculated as follows:

$lemon\ juice\ = 15 - \frac{5}{2} = \frac{30-5}{2} = \frac{25}{2}\ liters\ of\ lemon\ juice\\pure\ water\ = 45 - \frac{15}{2} = \frac{90-15}{2} = \frac{75}{2}\ liters\ of\ pure\ water$
