Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
-5*x+15-(35-10*x)=0
Pull out like factors :
5x - 20 = 5 • (x - 4)
_________________________________________
Solve : 5 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
_________________________________________
Solve : x-4 = 0
Add 4 to both sides of the equation :
x = 4

Write a rational equation that relates the desired percentage p, to the amount A of a 30% solution that needs to be added to 1 liter of 10% acid solution to make a blend that is p% acid, where 0<p<100 . What is a reasonable restriction on the set of possible values of ? Explain your answer.
Answer:
100(0.1 + 0.3A)= (1 + A) P
Step-by-step explanation:
A of a 30% solution that needs to be added to 1 liter of 10% acid solution to make a blend that is p% acid,
Hence,
10% of 1 + 30% of A = p%(1 + A)
0.10 + 0.3A = (p/100)(1 + A)
Divide both sides by 1 + A
0.1 + 0.3A/ 1 + A = p/100
Cross Multiply
100(0.1 + 0.3A) = 1 + A(p)
From the above calculation, we can see that, the blend that would be formed is not lower than 10% or greater than 30%
10% < p< 30%
Adding integers with different signs is just like adding or subtracting. First you just have to add all negative integers and also add all positive. After that positive intergers will be deducted by the sum of negative integers
The GCF of these terms is x
