Answer:
r = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=m
(r,7)=(x1,y1) and (3,4)=(x2-y2) and m=-3/5
so plug in...
(4-7)/(4-r)=-3/5
then solve for r which will get that r = -1
numerator: 4-7=-3
denominator: 4-r=5 -> 4-5=0+r -> -1=r
Answer:
x = 350 gallons (amt of 60% solution that must be added)
Step-by-step explanation:
Amt of 60% solution = x gallons ; Amt of active ingredient = 0.6x gallons
Amt of 15% solution = 100 gallons ; Amt of active ingredient = 15 gallons
Amt of 50% solution = 100+x gallons ; Amt of active = 50 + 0.5x gallons
EQUATION:
Active ingredient: 0.60x + 15 = 50 + 0.50x
0.10x = 35
x = 350 gallons (amt of 60% solution that must be added)
