Answer:

20 grams of an alloy containing 25% silver has to be melted with 50 grams of an alloy containing 60% silver to obtain a final alloy containing 50% silver

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

We define

A_{a}=50g @ 60\%, wich means alloy a has 50 grams containing 60% silver.

A_{b}=xg @ 25\%, wich means alloy b has x grams containing 25% silver.

So we can build an equiation 50 \times 0.60+x \times 0.25=\frac{1}{2}(50+x), as half of the final alloy has to be silver. Then solving for x

30+0.25x=25+0.5x\\30-25=0.5x-0.25x\\5=0.25x\\x=\frac{5}{0.25}=20

Wich means 20 grams of an alloy containing 25% silver (A_{b}) has to be melted with 50 grams of an alloy containing 60% silver (A_{a}) to obtain a final alloy containing 50% silver.

Solve for x.

\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}

  • Solve for x.

\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

Okay, so from the given figure we can see that, < FAE & < FAB forms a linear pair. In a linear pair, the 2 angles will together sum up to 180°. So,

  • < FAE = 4x°
  • < FAB = 2x°

__________________

From the explanation, we can understand that,

Sum of the linear pair = 180°

< FAE + < FAB = 180°

4x° + 2x° = 180°

6x° = 180°

x° = 180 ÷ 6

x = <u>3</u><u>0</u><u>°</u><u>.</u>

__________________

  • The value of x will be<em><u> 30°</u></em> (3rd option).

__________________

<u>NOTE</u> : Here, the lesser than symbol ( < ) stands for 'angle'.
