Answer:

20 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

10 gallons of solution w/ 15% juice means 1.5 gal of juice

to make it into 5%, multiply 1.5 by 20

1.5 x 20 = 30

5% of 30 gallons is 1.5 since 10% of 30 is 3.

Since there was already 10 gallons, the # of gallons of pure water added should be 20 gal.

I hope this helps thanks

Simplify the following: 7-3[(n^3+8n)/(-n)+9n^2]
Pachacha [2.7K]
If you would like to simplify <span>7 - 3[(n^3 + 8n) / (-n) + 9n^2], you can do this using the following steps:

</span>7 - 3[(n^3 + 8n) / (-n) + 9n^2] = 7 - 3[(-n^2 - 8) + 9n^2] = 7 - 3[-n^2 - 8 + 9n^2] = 7 - 3[ - 8 + 8n^2] = 7 - 3[8<span>n^2 - 8] = 7 - 24n^2 + 24 = - 24n^2 + 31
</span>
The correct result would be <span>- 24n^2 + 31.</span>

NeX [460]

Cross mutiply. 42*10= 420. 14*g= 14g

14g= 420

divide by 14 for both sides

14g/14= 420/14

g= 30

Check answer by using substitution method

42/30. Divide by 3 . 42/3= 14 , 30/3= 10

14/10 and 14/10 equal to each other by dividing 2.

14/2= 7 , 10/2= 5

7/5= 7/5

Answer: g= 30
