Answer:
x = -56
Step-by-step explanation:
x/7 = -8
Multiply each side by 7
x/7 *7 = -8*7
x = -56
Answer:
33%
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the weight of the mixture to be 100g**, then the weight of ryegrass in the mixture would be 30g.
Also, assume the weight mixture X used in the mixture is Xg, then the weight of mixture Y used in the mixture would be (100-X)g.
So we can now equate the parts of the ryegrass in the mixture as:
0.4X + 0.25(100-X) = 30
<=> 0.4X + 25 - 0.25X = 30
<=> 0.15X = 5
<=> X = 5/0.15 = 500/15 = 100/3
So the weight of mixture X as a percentage of the weight of the mixture
= (weight of X/weight of mixture) * 100%
= (100/3)/100 * 100%
= 33%
