X: liters of 15% orange juice
y: liters of 10% orange juice

x+y=5L

y=5L - x

x liters of 15% orange juice plus y liters of 10% orange juice makes 5 liters of 12% orange juice in equation form:

0.15x+0.10y = 0.12(5L)

0.15x+0.10(5L-x)=0.12(5L)

0.15x+0.5-0.10x=0.6

0.05x=0.1L

x=2L

so y = 3L

so you need 2 liters of 15% orange juice and 3 liters of 10% orange juice

oksano4ka [1.4K]
We are given with two functions f(x) = log10 x and g(x) = 3x − 1 and is asked for the product of the two functions expressed as f(x) • g(x). The answer then is simply the product of the two functions, that is log x * (3x - 1). log 10 x is equal to log x.
