I have to form a couple of equations in order to solve it.
let the amount of soybean in the mixture be x and that of cornmeal be y
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y = 280
y = 280 - x
x*(14/100) + y*(7/100) = 280*(12/100)
Multiplying the whole equation by 100;
14x + 7y = 3360
in this equation,put y = 280 - x
14x +7 (280-x) = 3360
14x +1960 - 7x = 3360
14x - 7x = 3360 - 1960
7x = 1400
x = 200lbs
y = 280 - x
= 280 - 200
= 80 lbs
Inorder to make a 280lbs mixture having 12% protein, we should mix 200lbs of soyabean and 80 lbs of cornmeal
The answer:
the main rules of the use of logarithm are
loga[a] = 1
loga[AxB] =loga[A] +loga[B] for all value positive of A and B
loga[A/B] = loga[A] - loga[B] for all value positive of A and B
in our case, <span>log8 4a (b-4/c4)
so it is equivalent to </span>log8 4a + <span>log8(b-4/c4)
and since </span>loga[A/B] = loga[A] l - oga[B] , log8(b-4/c4) =log8(b-4) - log8(c4)
the possible expression:
log8 4a (b-4/c4) = log8 4a + log8(b-4) - log8(c4)
Direct variation is is when the x and y a direct relation
without constants added or subtracted
With being times by each other
so the only one that meets the definite is the first one
y = 0.5x means y is equal to half of x. So you know that every y is directly related to half of x
