Im thinking 10 because 10+40=50 and 10x7=70
We have 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze.
How much 70% antifreeze do we add to get 60% antifreeze?
We'll make "x" the gallons of 70% we must add.
.20 * 60 + .70 x = .60 * (60 + x)
12 + .70x = 36 + .60x
.10x = 24
x = 240 gallons of 70% antifreeze.

Answer:
(160, 36)
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance is always positive because, well, you aren't -50 meters away from your house or something. You are just 50 meters away from your house. And 160 is the distance between -6 and 154, because there is one minus and one plus, you add them, because that is how far they are apart, and then-43 and -7 were easy just subtract them.
Answer:
x = 5.5
y = - 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one of the numbers = x
Let the other number = y
x + y = - 1
x = y + 12 Put the second equation into the first one
y + 12 + y = - 1 Subtract 12 from both sides
y + y = - 1 - 12 Combine both left and right sides
2y = - 13 Divide by 2
2y/2 = - 13/1
y = - 6.5
x + y = - 1
x - 6.5 = - 1 Add 6.5 to both sides
x = 5.5
★ 100% of 15 = X
★ 20% of 15 = Y
<u>Answers</u> : X = 15 and Y = 3
