We know that 20% of the first type of juice is pure fruit juice and 45% of second type of juice is pure fruit juice.

Now we have to make 30 pints of a mixture that is 35% pure.

Let x be the number of pints of first type of juice and y be the number of pints of second type of juice.

So, x+y=30 (Equation 1)

Since, 20% of x + 45% of y = 35.3% of 30

\frac{x}{5}+\frac{9y}{20}=10.5 (Equation 2)

Solving equations 1 and 2,

we get y=18 and x=12.

So, 12 pints of first type of juice and 18 pints of second type of juice are used.

EQUATION 10y=80. yes or no. ​
Darya [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                                           10*y-(80)=0

 Pull out like factors :

                                10y - 80  =   10 • (y - 8)

           Solve :    10   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

  Solve  :    y-8 = 0  

Add  8  to both sides of the equation :  

                     y = 8
