Answer:
x = amount of 100% acid solution (pure acid, no water)
y = amount of 10% acid solution (acid + water)
<u>both amounts are in liters</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
start with y= m(x+9)
Use the distributive property:
y= mx+9m
Now you want x to decrease by 6:
so y ' = m(x-6) + 9m
Use distributive property again:
y'= mx - 6m + 9m
y' = (mx+9m) - 6m
y' = y - 6m
So the value of y decreases by 6m.
Answer:
x = -1 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly solve the quadratic expression of
2x^2-6x-8 = 0....it gives you the two brackets of.....(2x-8)(x+1)=0
then...you equate the two brackets to 0.separately
2x-8 = 0....which gives you...x = 4...as the first solution..then..;
x+1 = 0....which gives you...x = -1...as the second solution
It would be 443 bc you would subtract by 6 2x
