Follows are the solution to the given points:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
For point A:
For point B:
For point C:
For point D:
The perimeter = 20 and AC = 8
Now as it is not mentioned which sides are equal of the isosceles triangle ABC,
We have two possible situations.
1)
If AC is the base
In that case AB = BC
Now AC = 8, AB = x , BC = x
So x + x + 8 = 20
2x + 8 = 20
2x = 12
x = 6
AB = BC = 6
2)
IF AC is not the base,
Then
AC = BC or AC = AB
So BC = 8 or AB = 8
If AB = AC = 8
Then
BC + 8 + 8 = 20
BC = 4
So there are two possible lengths of BC
Either it is BC = 8 or BC = 6 or BC = 4
The figure is attached for your reference.
So... the radiator has 15 liters of 70% antifreeze.. but needs an 80% antifreeze
well, so, you need to drain some and put some with higher percentage, seems to be, you will end up at the same 15 liters, possible the radiator's capacity, of 80% antifreeze
so, the same amount going out, of 70% is the same amount going in, of 100% antifreeze
now.. let's use the decimal format for the percents, or 70% is 70/100 or 0.7 and so on
so.. let's subtract, from the current solution, 0.7x and add 1x or x, our antifreeze concentration amount, should be 12 though
10.5 - 0.7x + x = 12
solve for "x"
