Moonshine Problem: How many gallons of 20% moonshine and how many gallons of 30% moonshine have to be mixed together to make 100

gallons of 25% moonshine? (x = gallons of 20% moonshine; y = gallons of 30% moonshine. 20% moonshine is called 20% because 20% of any amount (like x) is PURE MOONSHINE!)​

Answer:

50 gallons 20%

50 gallons 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is gallons of 20% moonshine, and y is gallons of 30% moonshine, then:

x + y = 100

0.20x + 0.30y = 0.25(100)

Solve the system of equations using substitution or elimination.  Using substitution:

0.20x + 0.30(100 − x) = 0.25(100)

0.20x + 30 − 0.30x = 25

5 = 0.10x

x = 50

y = 50

What is the sum of three consecutive even numbers is 30?
kykrilka [37]
8, 10, 12

A helpful equation:
x+x+1+x+2 = 30

Combine like terms
3x + 3 = 30

Subtract 3 from each side
3x = 27

Divide each side by to isolate x
x = 9

x = 9. However, 9 is not an even number. Let’s subtract 1 from 9 to get the first even number.

The first number is 8. The best two even numbers after 8 are 10 and 12.

8 + 10 + 12 = 30, thus this is the sequence.

meriva

Hi,

The sum of ten and a number.

Usually AND refers to adding, that's just the rules of math according to writing equation. Times would be multiplying, taking away is subtraction and divided by is dividing.


So if the question uses AND, it's adding.
