X liters of 10% + (30 - x) liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15% 

<span>Plugging in the numbers </span>
<span>x(10) + (30 - x)22 = 30(15) </span>

<span>Distribute </span>
<span>10x + 660 - 22x = 450 </span>

<span>Combine like terms </span>
<span>-12x = -210 </span>

<span>Divide both sides by -12 </span>
<span>x = 17.5 </span>
<span>30 - x = 12.5 </span>

<span>17.5 liters of 10% + 12.5 liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15%

THE TRICK IS TO JUST USE ONLY ONE VARIABLE</span>

Anni [7]
ANSWER

y = 2/3x + 15

y - 9 = 2/3 ( x - -9 )

y - 9 = 2/3x + 6 ( distribution )

y - 9 = 2/3x + 6 ( add 9 to 6 )

y = 2/3x + 15
