1.
1.4( x - 1.6) = 1.6(x - 1.4) \\ 1.4x - 2 .24 = 1.6x - 2.24 \\ 0.2x = 0 \\ x =  0
2.
1.4( x - 1.6) = 1.6(1.4 - x) \\ 1.4x - 2 .24 = 2.24 - 1.6x \\ 3x = 4.48 \\ x =  1.4933333

High grade steel consists of 85% iron and 15% magnese. Low grade steel consists of 67% iron and 33% mag ese. NASA orders 500 ton
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

361\dfrac{1}{9} tons of high steel and 138\dfrac{8}{9} tons of low steel

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of tons of high grade steel and y be the number of tons ow low grade steel needed.

In x tons of high grade steel there are

0.85x tons of iron

0.15x tons of magnese

In y tons of low grade steel there are

0.67y tons of iron

0.33y tons of magnese

NASA orders 500 tons of steel, so

x+y=500

and specifies that it must be in the proportion 80% iron and 20% magnese, so

0.85x+0.67y=500\cdot 0.8\\ \\0.85x+0.67y=400

From the first equation,

x=500-y

Substitute it into the second equation:

0.85(500-y)+0.67y=400\\ \\425-0.85y+0.67y=400\\ \\-0.18y=-25\\ \\y=\dfrac{2,500}{18}=138\dfrac{8}{9}\ tons\\ \\x=361\dfrac{1}{9}\ tons

How to solve this problem
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

B: (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First isolate the y in both equations

2) Set the equations equal to each other

3) Solve for x (you should get 2 and 5)

4) Insert the x values back in to get your y values

5) You should have gotten (2, -1) and (5, 2)

These are your two answers, but the question is only asking for one solution and (5,2) isn't one of the options, so it has to be (2,-1).
