Answer:

<u>30 gallons solution 4% and 10 gallons solution 8%</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>x•4%+y•8%=40•5% </h3>

<em><u>4x+8y=40•5 and x+y=40</u></em>

x=40-y

4(40-y)+8y=200

160-4y+8y=200

4y=200-160

4y=40 => y=10 (gallons solution 8%)

=> x=40-10=30 (gallons solution 4%)

30 gallons solution 4% and 10 gallons solution 8%

When 5x^2 + 2= 4x is written in standard form, what are the values of a, b, and c
goblinko [34]

The standard form of a quadratic equation is

ax^{2}+bx+c=0,

where a, b, and c are coefficients. You want to get the given equation into this form. You can accomplish this by putting all the non-zero values on the left side on the equation.

In this case, the given equation is

5x^{2}+2=4x

Since 4x is on the right side of the equation, we subtract that from both sides. The resulting equation is

5x^{2}-4x+2=0

Looking at the standard form equation ax^{2}+bx+c=0, we can see that

a=5, b=-4, c=0
