Step-by-step explanation:
If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80
Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.
We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.
We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.
x = 80 - y
.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12
9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12
.08y = 2.4
y = 30
x = 80 - 30 = 50

Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
D shows that 6 is being multiplied by n. Because of the order of operations, we d this first. Then we'd subtract 4.
Answer:
adding both equations
4x+9y=5
-4x+7y=11
+ + =+
________
0 +16y=16
y=1
putting the value of y in first eqn
4x+9×1=5
4x=5-9
4x=-4
x=-1
so the x is -1 and y is 1
0.800 is already rounded to the nearest tenth
