You work for a swimming pool cleaning service. The pool you are cleaning holds 15,000 gallons of water. The cleaning solution you have to add to the pool calls for a ratio of 1:6,000 (1oz to 6,000 gallons of water). What is the ratio of solution you must use for this specific pool?

The answer would be 2.5 oz. of solution

Step-by-step explanation:

If you need 1:6,000 ratio and the pool you are cleaning is 15,000 then you divide 15,000 by 6,000 and you get what your ratio should be

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2
