Answer:
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
x=−845
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Every integer is a rational number, since each integer n can be written in the form n/1. For example 5 = 5/1 and thus 5 is a rational number. However, numbers like 1/2, 45454737/2424242, and -3/7 are also rational, since they are fractions whose numerator and denominator are integers.
440 gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifreeze
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the gallons of 80 % antifreeze added
Therefore, "x" gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze
Final mixture is x + 80
Therefore, we can frame a equation as:
"x" gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get (x + 80) gallons of 70 % antifreeze
Thus, we get,
x gallons of 80 % + 80 gallons of 15 % = (x + 80) gallons of 70 %
Thus 440 gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed
Answer:
55 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Jim ran 15 miles in 5 days
no. of miles ran in 5 days = 15 miles
dividing LHS and RHS by 5
no. of miles ran in 5/5(=1) days = 15/5 miles = 3 miles
no. of miles ran in 1 day = 3 miles
let the no. of days taken to run 165 miles be x ----A
No of miles ran in x days = x*no. of miles ran in 1 day = 3x miles
thus, From A
3x = 165
x = 165/3 = 55
Thus, it took 55 days for JIM to run 165 miles
It would take just over 6 minutes assuming it takes him 2. 6 minutes to wax a single square inch somehow.
