The number of gallons that must be needed to antifreeze 50% solution is 105.

Given that 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 70 gallons of Strength 25% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antifreeze.

The six-step method involves a few steps that need to perform. These are defining the problem, determining the root cause, finding the alternative solution to solve the problem, selecting the solution, implementing the solution, and finally evaluating the outcome.

Let's consider x be the number of gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution.

As we know we need to make an antifreeze solution by adding the given quantities.

Hence,

x×50%+70×25%=40%×(x+70)

x×0.5+70×0.25=0.4×(x+70)

Now, we will multiply the numbers, we get

0.5x+17.5=0.4(x+70)

Now, we will multiply both sides by 10, we get

0.5x×10+17.5×10=0.4(x+70)×10

5x+175=4(x+70)

5x+175=4x+280

Further, we will subtract 175 from both sides, we get

5x+175-175=4x+280-175

5x=4x+105

Furthermore we will subtract 4x from both sides, we get

5x-4x=4x+105-4x

x=105

Hence, 105 gallons of 50% antifreeze solution must be needed.

Based on the fact that the widow got an exemption on homestead tax, the amount that the owner would pay in property taxes is $3,471.20.

The widow received a homestead tax exemption of $25,000 on the property.

The amount to be paid in property tax is:

= (8.8 + 9.3 + 6.5) / 1,000 x (185,000 - 25,000)

= 21.7/1,000 x 160,000

= $3,471.20

In conclusion, the property tax to be paid is $3,471.20.

Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's break this down:

60% of arenas sold out

Out of those arenas that did NOT sell out

We want to know the joint relative frequency of area that were sold out AND NOT on the previous tour schedule, therefore all the information about areas that did NOT sell out is irrelevant.

Because 90% of the areas that were sold out had been on the previous tour, 10% had NOT been on the previous tour.

Therefore, considering all the arenas, 10% of 60% of the arenas were sold out and not on the previous tour.

Let x equal the total number of arenas:

[tex](.10)(.60)x=0.06x[/tex]

Convert to percent

6%

Therefore, the joint relative frequency of sold out arenas that were not on the previous tour is 6%.

Colin paid the loan at a ten percent annual interest rate.

Simple interest is the form of interest calculation in which the principal amount remains the same for the entire duration for which the loan is taken.

It is also assumed that Colin will repay $35 per month for the next two years.

We must calculate a simple interest rate on Colin's borrowings.

As a result, Colin's total payment to his parents for two years is $35.

We are required to find simple interest rate on Colin's borrowings

Therefore, total amount paid by Colin to his parents= 35$ for 2 years

        =35*24=840

The amount paid by Colin is principal + interest

Thus, the simple interest amount= 840-700=140$

We know that the simple interest formula is principal*rate*time/100.

We know that the simple interest is 140, the principal is 700, the time is two years, and we need to find the rate of interest.

SI= P*R*T/100

140= 700*R*2/100

140/7*2=R

R=140/14=10

Therefore, The Rate of interest on which Colin paid the loan is 10 per cent per annum

The Perimeter of rectangle 3cm 5cm is 16 cm.

In geometry, a rectangle is a plane figure of four sides having four angles of 90 degree. A rectangle has different length and breadth.

Some important formulas for rectangle :

Perimeter is define as the distance around all the edges of a shape. In case of rectangle perimeter is the distance of all 4 edges i.e. 2 lengths and 2 breadth .

Thus , perimeter of rectangle = ( 2 × length ) + (2 × breadth)

                                                 = 2 ( length + breadth )

In the given question,

length of rectangle =  3cm

breadth of rectangle = 5cm

therefore, perimeter of rectangle = 2(3+5) = 16cm

Hence, The Perimeter of rectangle is 16 cm.

Answer:

a

Step-bye-step explanation:

that's the correct answer

Answer:

Area = 192.5 ft.²

Step-by-step explanation:

By splitting the shape in 2, we can find the area much simpler.

Starting with the parallelogram (on the left), the area formula is A = b × h.

b (base) = 11 ft.

h (height) = 7 ft.

A (area) = (11 ft.)(7 ft.)

A = 77 ft.² (save this for later)

Then, the trapezoid's (on the right) area formula is A = [(a + b) ÷ 2] × h.

a (first base) = 8 ft.

b (second base) = (20 - 7) = 13 ft.

h (height) = 11 ft.

A = [(8 ft. + 13 ft.) ÷ 2] × 11 ft.

A = [(21 ft.) ÷ 2] × 11 ft.

A = (10.5 ft.) × 11 ft.

A = 115.5 ft.²

Now, bringing back the first area, we can add them together to find the total:

A = 77 ft.² + 115.5 ft.²

A = 192.5 ft.²

The scale drawing which is equal to 9 yards in real time is 12 cm.

Given that 4cm on the scale, drawing is equal to 3 yards in real-time

we have to find the scale drawing which is equal to 9 yards in real-time.

Let the scale drawing be 'x'

Now it can be written as

4 cm ------ 3 yards

x cm ------- 9 yards

Now we can divide this as

4/x = 3/9

By cross multiplication, we get

4 * 9 = 3 * x

x = 4 * 9 / 3

x = 12

Therefore, the scale drawing which is equal to 9 yards in real time is 12 cm.

The solution to the system of equations is x = -8/7, y = 4/7 and z = -2/7

The system of equations is given as

2x - y + 2z = -6

-3y + z = -2

2x - 3z = -4

Subtract 2x - 3z = -4 from 2x - y + 2z = -6

This is represented as

(2x - y + 2z = -6) - (2x - 3z = -4)

This gives

- y + 5z = -2

Multiply - y + 5z = -2 by 3

-3y + 15z = -6

Subtract -3y + 15z = -6 from -3y + z = -2

This is represented as

(-3y + z = -2) - (-3y + 15z = -6)

This gives

-14z = 4

Divide by -14

z = -2/7

Substitute z = -2/7 in - y + 5z = -2

- y - 5 * 2/7 = -2

This gives

- y - 10/7 = -2

Rewrite as:

y = 2 - 10/7

Evaluate

y = 4/7

Substitute z = -2/7 in 2x - 3z = -4

2x - 3 * 4/7 = -4

This gives

2x - 12/7 = -4

So, we have:

2x = 12/7 - 4

Evaluate

2x = -16/7

Divide by 2

x = -8/7

Hence, the solution to the system of equations is x = -8/7, y = 4/7 and z = -2/7
