The motor oil is composed of 8 liters of natural oil and 5 liters of synthetic oil. This means there is a ratio of 8/5. We have 552 liters of natural oil to y liters of synthetic. This is the ratio 552/y. Create a proportion that compares the two ratios.

$\frac{8}{5}=\frac{552}{y}$

Solve by cross multiplying.

8y = 5(552)

8y = 2,760

y= 345

345 liters of synthetic oil.

Together 552+345= 897 liters of motor oil.

How many ways can 100 be written as the sum of distinct integers from the set {1, 2,..., 15}?

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

48 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me take a guess

S₁_₁₅ = (1+15)*7 + 8 = 120

There are 48 combinations of distinct digits from 1 to 15 to make 20

120-20=100

So every 20 has a corresponding 100

I wish I got it right, otherwise report it.
