Answer:
1.67 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Original mixture contains 80% detergent and 20% water in a 15 gallon bucket.
New Mixture to contain 60% detergent and 40% water of 5 gallon bucket.
To find:
Volume of Pure water to be added to each 5 gallon bucket to obtain the new mixture.
Solution:
First of all, let us calculate the answer by adding pure water to 15 gallon bucket.
Let the number of gallon of water to be added =
New volume = (15+) gallons
Now, let us compare the number of gallons of water in the mixture before and after.
Therefore, to a 15 gallon bucket (80% detergent and 20% water)of detergent mixture, if we add 5 gallons of pure water , it will become 60% detergent and 40% water.
To a 5 gallon bucket, the number of gallons of water to be added =
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation starts out as 4.8x - 3.7 = 14.7,
Then you have to isolate the x variable to get: 4.8x = 14.7 + 3.7
It is + 3.7 because you have to do the inverse operation
Finally the equation becomes 4.8x = 18.4
So x = 3.833333333 repeating
A.72
B.96
C.136
D.132
Answer:
The answer is 136 .
x + 12
y + 3
