Answer:
3. $6000 at 8%; $5000 at 5%
4. 66 2/3 gallons of 9%; 133 1/3 gallons of 6%
Step-by-step explanation:
For many mixture problems, it works well to let a variable represent the amount of the largest contributor used in the mix.
3. Let x represent the amount invested at 8%. Then the total interest is ...
8%x +5%(11000-x) = 730
3%x = 730 -550
x = 180/0.03 = 6000
$6000 was invested at 8%; $5000 was invested at 5%.

4. Let x represent the number of gallons of 9% content. Then the alcohol content of the mix is ...
9%x +6%(200 -x) = 7%(200)
3%x = 1%(200) . . . . . subtract 6%(200)
x = 200/3 = 66 2/3 . . . . . divide by 3%
200 -x = 133 1/3
66 2/3 gallons of 9% wine and 133 1/3 gallons of 6% wine should be used.

26 = 2L
13 = L
Answer:
-10
Step-by-step explanation:
24+8-(7x6)
Answer:
Solve the equation so it is in the y=mx+b form.
Step 1. 6x+9y = 216
Step 2. 9y = -6x+216
Step 3. y = -6/9x+24
Step 4. Simplify/Reduce to get y = -2/3x+24
Since it is Parallel then the slope is the same so the slope is -2/3x.
