A service station checks Mr. Smith's radiator and finds it contains only 40% antifreeze. If the radiator holds 20 quarts and is

full, how many quarts must be replaced with pure antifreeze in order to bring it up to a required 80% antifreeze?

Answer:

8 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step One: Figure out how much 40% is by making an equation:</u>

<em>Since we are looking for a percentage, we use cross multiplication to find X.</em>

\frac{x}{20} = \frac{40}{100}

<u>Step Two: multiply 20 by 40 to start cross multiplying:</u>

<em>20 times 40 is 800, so replace the 40 by 800 in the equation.</em>

\frac{x}{20} = \frac{800}{100}

<u>Step Three: divide 800 by 100, and we will have X:</u>

<em>800/100=8</em>

<em><u>X=8 aka 8 quarts</u></em>

I hope this helps!

pls give thx and brainliest :D

How are percent error and percent change similar
mihalych1998 [28]
Percent Change = New Value − Old Value|Old Value| × 100%

Example: There were 200 customers yesterday, and 240 today:

240 − 200|200|× 100% = 40200 × 100% = 20%

A 20% increase.

 

Percent Error = |Approximate Value − Exact Value||Exact Value| × 100%

Example: I thought 70 people would turn up to the concert, but in fact 80 did!

|70 − 80||80| × 100% = 1080 × 100% = 12.5%

I was in error by 12.5%

(Without using the absolute value, the error is −12.5%, meaning I under-estimated the value)

The difference between the two is that one states factual calculations and the other is a theoretical guess

K(2, 7), L(6, 12), M(13, 13), N(9.8) (Slope Formula) is it a parallelogram?
vredina [299]

angles and sides opposite one another on a parallelogram are congruent, we can say this is a parallelogram because there are congruent.

What in mathematics is a parallelogram?

  • A quadrilateral with the opposing sides parallel is called a parallelogram (and therefore opposite angles equal).
  • A parallelogram with all right angles is known as a rectangle, and a quadrilateral with equal sides is known as a rhombus.

Slope Formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

KL: 12-7/6-2 = 5/4

LM; 13-12/13-6 = 1/7

MN: 8-13/9-13 = 5/4

KN: 7-8/9-2 = 1/7

Since angles and sides opposite one another on a parallelogram are congruent, we can say this is a parallelogram because there are congruent.

Use the table to write a quadratic function in vertex form. Then rewrite the function in standard form.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph decreases at first, then changes direction at (2, 5).

y = a(x-2)^2 + 5

Plug in (1,11) and solve for a:

11 = a(1-2)^2 + 5

a = 6

Equation in vertex form:

y = 6(x-2)^2 + 5

What is x. Please show *all* the steps.
Zolol [24]

The equation 5/2 - x + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0 is a quadratic equation

The value of x is 8 or 1

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The equation is given as:

5/2 - x + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0

Rewrite as:

-5/x - 2 + x - 5/x + 2 + 3x + 8/x^2 - 4 = 0

Take the  LCM

[-5(x + 2) + (x -5)(x- 2)]\[x^2 - 4 + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4] = 0

Expand

[-5x - 10 + x^2 - 7x + 10]/[x^2 - 4] + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4] = 0

Evaluate the like terms

[x^2 - 12x]/[x^2 - 4] + [3x + 8]/[x^2 - 4 = 0

Multiply through by x^2 - 4

x^2 - 12x+ 3x + 8 = 0

Evaluate the like terms

x^2 -9x + 8 = 0

Expand

x^2 -x - 8x + 8 = 0

Factorize

x(x -1) - 8(x - 1) = 0

Factor out x - 1

(x -8)(x - 1) = 0

Solve for x

x = 8 or x = 1

Hence, the value of x is 8 or 1
