Answer:
1A) 2 gallons of 20% solution and 3 gallons 15% solution needed
1B) 4 gallons of 20% solution and 1 gallons 15% solution needed
Step-by-step explanation:
1A) adding 20% salt and 15% water making 5 gallons of 17%
20% salt + 15% salt = 5 gallons of 17% salt
0.20x + 0.15(5 - x) = 0.17(5)
0.20x + 0.75 - 0.15x = 0.85
0.20x + 0.75 - 0.75 - 0.15x = 0.85 - 0.75
0.20x - 0.15x = 0.10
0.05x = 0.10
0.05x/ 0.05 = 0.10/0.05
x = 2 gallons (amount of 20% solution needed)
5 - x = 5 - 2 = 3 gallons (amount of 15% solution needed)
1B)
0.20x + 0.15(5 - x) = 0.19(5)
0.20x + 0.75 - 0.15x = 0.95
0.20x + 0.75 - 0.75 - 0.15x = 0.95 - 0.75
0.20x - 0.15x = 0.20
0.05x = 0.20
0.05x / 0.05 = 0.20/0.05
x = 4 gallons (amount of 20% solution needed)
5 - x = 5 - 4 = 1 gallons (amount of 15% solution needed)

Yes-because from the 7th term you can either go backwards or forwards to find the number/pattern/letter you need to get to
Answer:
1050 units
Explanations:
Given the equation y=500+0.2x to determine his weekly paycheck based on his sales volume, where:
y is the amount of his check
x is the number of units he sells each month.
In order to determine the amount of units he would need to sell for his paycheck to be $710, we willl substitute y = 710 into the equation and find the value of x as shown:
y=500+0.2x
710 = 500+0.2x
710-500 = 0.2x
210 = 0.2x
0.2x = 210
Divide both sides by 0.2
0.2x/0.2 = 210/0.2
x = 1050
Hence he would need 1,050 units to sell for his paycheck to be $710
Answer:
23/16
Step-by-step explanation:
3*8/2*8=24/16-1/16=23/16
Answer:
- True for Co-Prime Numbers
- False for Non Co-Prime Numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>STATEMENT:</u> The LCM of two numbers is the product of the two numbers.
This statement is not true except if the two numbers are co-prime numbers.
Two integers a and b are said to be co-prime if the only positive integer that divides both of them is 1.
<u>Example: </u>
- Given the numbers 4 and 7, the only integer that divides them is 1, therefore they are co-prime numbers and their LCM is their product 28.
- However, consider the number 4 and 8. 1,2 and 4 divides both numbers, they are not co-prime, Their LCM is 8 which is not the product of the numbers.
