Use this systems of equations to solve:

x = first antifreeze
y = second antifreeze

\left \{ {{.2x + .12y = .18(15)} \atop {x + y = 15}} \right.

Isolate y.

x + y = 15
Subtract x from both sides.
y = -x + 15

Substitute y into the other equation.

.2x + .12(-x + 15) = .18(15)
Simplify.
.2x - .12x + 1.8 = 2.7
Subtract 1.8 from both sides.
.08x = .9
Divide both sides by .08
x = 11.25

Substitute x in the equation that we isolated y in.

y = -11.25 + 15
y = 3.75

11.25 L of the first antifreeze and 3.75 L of the second.

Answer:

m = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

To isolate the variable, you undo what is being done to it. Here, we have the variable being multiplied by 7, hence, we divide both sides by 7 and the result is the variable isolated and solved.

1. 7m = 91

2. (7m)/7 = 91/7

3. m = 13

Find the unknown side length, x. Write your answer in simplest radical form.
Volgvan

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, you should get 45 [9 + 36]. Then, take the square root of 45 and simplify it to 3√5.

<span>A)2x^2+3   is a transformation of f(x)=x^2:  Stretch the graph vertically by a factor of 2 and then shift the entire resulting graph up by 3 units.  The graph will still look like a parabola that opens up.

Answers to C and D are very similar, except that we compress the graph of x^2 v ertically by a factor of (1/2).

None of these A, B, C, D is wrong.
