Answer: the answer is x=12 and x=4
Answer:
<em>Mr. Allen will need 28 oz. of preserver</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Proportions</u>
A direct proportion is a relation between variables where their ratio is a constant value. This means that if p and g are proportional, then:
p = kg
Where k is the constant of proportionality.
Where p is the quantity of preserver Mr. Allen needs to store his boat for winter, and g is the gallons of gas of the tank.
We are already given the ratio of fuel preserver and gallons of gas as 1 oz:2.5 gallons.
The value of k is, then k=1/2.5. The proportion is written as:
p = g/2.5
Since the boat holds g=70 gallons of gas:
p = 70/2.5 = 28
Mr. Allen will need 28 oz. of preserver
X2-10+25=35
+10. +10
x2+25=45
-25 -25
x2=20
