Answer:
x = 5/e
Step-by-step explanation:
ln x- ln 5= -1
We know that ln a - ln b = ln (a/b)
ln x- ln 5= -1
ln(x/5) = -1
Raise each side to the power of e
e^ ln(x/5) = e^-1
We know that e^-1 = 1/e
x/5 = 1/e
Multiply each side by 5
x/5 *5 = 1/e * 5
x = 5/e

Answer:
750 grams of 60% alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Define x = amount of 60% alloy and y = amount of 20% alloy
Equating the amounts of gold:
0.6x+0.2y = 1000(0.5)
Since there must be 1000 grams total:
x+y = 1000
Writing the 2 resulting equations together:
0.6x + 0.2y = 500
x + y = 1000
Multiply the first equation by 5:
3x + y = 2500
x + y = 1000
Subtracting the 2nd equation from the 1st:
2x = 1500
x = 750
Answer: 750 grams of 60% alloy
