To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure below:
1. You have that one canned juice drink is 20% orange juice and another is 5% orange juice.
2. You must make a system of equation, as below:
x+y=15 (i)
0.20x+0.05y=0.15x15 (ii)
3. Now, you must find the value of x (the liters of the first canned needed) and y (the liters of the other canned needed):
x+y=15 (i)
x=15-y
0.20x+0.05y=0.15x15 (ii)
0.20(15-y)+0.05y=2.25
y=5 liters
x+y=15 (i)
x=15-5
x=10 liters
4. Therefore, the asnwer is:
10 liters of the canned juice drink that is 20% orange juice and 5 liters of the other canned juice drink that is 5% orange juice.
Answer:
3.50+8.74x=y , other answer 47.2
