Answer:
192y^8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
750 grams of 60% alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Define x = amount of 60% alloy and y = amount of 20% alloy
Equating the amounts of gold:
0.6x+0.2y = 1000(0.5)
Since there must be 1000 grams total:
x+y = 1000
Writing the 2 resulting equations together:
0.6x + 0.2y = 500
x + y = 1000
Multiply the first equation by 5:
3x + y = 2500
x + y = 1000
Subtracting the 2nd equation from the 1st:
2x = 1500
x = 750
