X*y=y/b........................
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
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Here is our equation
3x - 4 (2x - 5) = 15
First, we will sue the distributive property to remove the parentheses. The term outside the parentheses is -4, so that is what we multiply the insides by.
3x-8x+20=15
We combine our like terms (our x-values).
-5x+20=15
We subtract 20 from both sides.
-5x=-5
We divide both sides by -5.
x=1
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
