Okay

pooja195 (pooja195):

You're looking for the amout of juice in the bottle and you got: 40% water = 1 liter 60% juice = ? liters 60*1/40= 1.5 liters of juice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay :) Then what

pooja195 (pooja195):

well what do you think?

pooja195 (pooja195):

You could use x : representing number of liters of juice So you'll get 60=40x

I Came Up with hold on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.4 (t) = 1l t -1l over 0.4 = 2.5 ( = 0.6 x 2.5 l

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 60 }{ 40 }=\frac{ x }{ 1 },x=\frac{ 60 }{ 40}=\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }=1.5~ litre~of~juice.\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

total 1.5+1=2.5 litres.

In a certain town the temperature, x in degrees Celsius on a certain day is described by two statements: If 3 times the temperature is increased by 2, the temperature is still less than 14°C. Twice the temperature minus 7 is greater than -11°C. Part A: Create a compound inequality to represent the temperature range. (3 points) Part B: Can the temperature in this town be 5°C? Justify your answer by solving the inequalities in Part A. (3 points) Part C: The average temperature in another town is 3°C, but the actual temperature is within 4°C of the average. Write and solve an inequality to find the range of temperature in this town. (4 points)
