Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color A is black. Sixty percent of the pigment in paint color B is black. An unknown amount of paint color B is mixed with 40 ml of paint color A, resulting in a paint that contains 25% black pigment. Which equation can be used to solve for x, the total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors?

0.15(40) + 0.6x = 0.25(40 + x)
0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)
0.15(40) + 0.6x = 0.25(40 – x)
0.15(40) + 0.6(x + 40) = 0.25(x)

The first few steps in solving the quadratic equation 9x2 + 49x = 22 ? 5x by completing the square are shown. 9x2 + 49x = 22 ? 5x 9x2 + 54x = 22 9(x2 + 6x) = 22 which is the best step to do next to solve the equation by completing the square? 9(x2 + 6x + 3) = 25 9(x2 + 6x + 3) = 49 9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 31 9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 103
