Mathematics

Answer:

factors are any group of number or expressions which, when multiplied, produce another number or expression.

Basic example: 4 can be broken into 2 factors---2 and 2. 2 times 2 = 4

Example using an unknown:

2X + 6 = 2 * (X + 3)

In the given problem, there is no whole-number common factor. A normal convention would be to factor based on the unknown term----thus 8X is factored into 8 and X.

So: 8X + 7 = 8 ( X + 7/8 )

The following would also be correct:

8X + 7 = 4 ( 2X + 7/4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer: $21.75\ milliliters$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the original volume of the solution (in milliliters) before the acid was added and "y" the volume of the solution (in milliliters) after the addition of the acid.

Set up a system of equations:

$\left \{ {{x+y=90} \atop {y=3x+3}} \right.$

Applying the Substitution Method, you can substitute the second equation into the first equation and then solve for "x":

$x+y=90\\\\x+(3x+3)=90\\\\4x+3=90\\\\x=21.75$
