How many gallons of a 80% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifreeze

440 gallons of 80 % antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 15% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifreeze

Solution:

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

part b

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value
