<span>Cost of maple syrup = $6.00 a Gallon
Cost of corn syrup = 0.80 cents a Gallon
Cost of the syrup mixture = $2.36 a Gallon
There is mixture of 50 Gallons
Lets maple syrup be x gallons, so corn syrup be 50-x gallons
Hence,
6*x + 0.80(50-x) = 2.36*50
6x + 40 - 0.8x = 118
5.2x = 78
=> x = 78/5.2 => x = 15
So Maple will be syrup be 15 gallons.
Corn syrup will be 35 gallons.</span>
We are given with the coordinates of one of the points of a line which is
(1,2)
In order to generate an equation of a line, we need at least one other point or the slope of the line. If we are given with the slope of line, we can use the point slope form which is
y - y1 = m (x - x1)
substituting
y - 2 = m(x - 1)
Event 4 (impossible), Event 3 (probability is 7/20), Event 1 (probability is 6/12 which is greater than 7/20), and Event 2 (certain to happen)
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: number of cubic yards of mulch that first truck can transport
y: number of cubic yards of mulch that second truck can transport
Now we write the expression.
The first truck makes 12 trips to a job site:

The second makes 14 trips:

The difference between the first truck and the second truck is:
Answer:
An expression that represents the difference in the total number of cubic yards that the first truck delivers compared to the second is:
