2x-5y=16    =>10x-25y=80
5x+3y=9     => 10x+6y=18
subtract one from the other: (6-(-25)y=(18-80), 31y=-62, y=-2
plug y=-2 in 2x-5y=16 to find x: 2x+10=16, x=3
12x+y=12*3-2=34

Pure copper was mixed with a 10% copper alloy to produce an alloy thát was 25% copper. How much of the pure copper and how much
lora16 [44]

Answer:

6kg pure copper and 30 kg 10% copper was mixed to give 36kg of 25% alloy

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to produce 36 kg of 25% alloy

Let the Pure copper be x kg while 10% alloy be y kg

Pure copper is simply 100% copper

Thus;

x + y = 36 •••••(i)

Then;

100% of x + 10% of y = 25% of 36

= x + 0.1y = 9 •••••• ii)

From i x = 36-y

from ii, x = 9-0.1y

Equate both x

36-y = 9-0.1y

36-9 = 0.1y + y

0.9y = 27

y = 27/0.9

y = 30

x = 36-y

x = 36-30

x = 6 kg

A) all values at which h has a local maximum <br> B ) all local maximum values of h
Harlamova29_29 [7]

For the given function h(x), we have:

a) at x = -2 and x = 2.

b) y = 0 and y = 3.

<h3>How to identify the maximums of function h(x)?</h3>

First, we want to get the values of x at which we have maximums. To do that, we need to see the value in the horizontal axis at where we have maximums.

By looking at the horizontal axis, we can see that the maximums are at:

x = -2 and at x = 2.

Now we want to get the maximum values, to do that, we need to look at the values in the vertical axis.

  • The first maximum value is at y = 0 (the one for x = -2)
  • The second maximum is at y = 3 (the one for x = 2).

If you want to learn more about maximums:
