Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use a system of equations to solve this. We do not know how much of the 25% bleach solution is used; we will use x to represent this. We know that 5 cups of the 10% solution was used. We do not know how much of the resulting solution we have; we will use y to represent this. This gives us the equation
x+5 = y
Using the decimal forms of the percentages for each solution, we have 0.25x (25% solution for x cups), 0.1(5) (10% solution for 5 cups) and 0.2y (20% solution for y cups); this gives us the equation
0.25x+0.1(5) = 0.2y
This gives us the system
To use elimination, we will make the coefficients of x the same by multiplying the top equation by 0.25:
We will now subtract the second equation from the first:
Divide both sides by 0.05:
0.75/0.05 = 0.05y/0.05
15 = y
There were 15 cups of the resulting 20% solution. Substituting this into the first equation, we have
x+5=15
Subtract 5 from each side:
x+5-5=15-5
x = 10
This isn't to diffuclt. So, to the formula for the area of a circle is 
, or instead of r, you can put D, which is r times 2
The diameteris 2.5, so, the answer would be
pi times 2.5, where pie = 3.14
So, the answer is 2.5 * 3.14 = 7.85 or 7.9
