Answer:
8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
i put equations as this:
x+40 = y
where x is galllons of pure mixture and y is the gallons of the new mixture
the other equation i id was:
x+0.2(40) = 0.25y
x+8 = 0.25y
y = 4x+32
solve using substitution
(x+40) = 4x+32
x = 4x-8
-3x = -8
x = 8/3
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The term 8x is a product (as is any term). It is the product of a constant coefficient (8) and a variable (x). The "coefficient" is the multiplier of the variable of interest, so is 8 in this term.
_____
The word "coefficient" is often used to refer to the constant multiplier in any term. For example, in the term 6xy, if we just ask for the coefficient, we are interested in the value 6.
On the other hand, if we ask for the coefficient of y in that term, we expect to be told it is <em>6x</em>. That is, the "coefficient" is the multiplier of the specified variable or constellation of variables.
180-53 is 127 angle 6 and 3 would be the same so your answer is 127
