How many gallons each of 0.5% milk and 3% milk should a dairy farmer combine to
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

2.8 gallons 0.5% milk

4.2 gallons 3% milk

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = .5% milk

let 'y' = 3% milk

System of Equations:

x + y = 7

.005x + .03y = 7(.02)

I used the substitution method and solved the first equation for y:  y = 7 - x

.005x + .03(7 - x) = .14

.005x + 0.21 - .03x = 0.14

-0.025x + 0.21 = 0.14

-0.025x = -0.07

x = 2.8

7 - 2.8 = 4.2

y = 4.2

What is the solution to the problem in the picture below?
Pie
 this equation ( /2x-1/=5)can be solved if we solve the following equations:
2x-1=5
2x-1=-5

1)We solve the first equation: 
2x-1=5
2x=5+1
2x=6
x=6/2
x=2

2) we solve the second equation.
2x-1=-5
2x=-5+1
2x=4
x=-4/2
x=-2

The solutions of this equation /2x-1/=5 will be: x=3 and x=-2

Answer: x=3 and x=-2
