Answer:
4.5 % alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = amt of 30% alloy
The resulting total is to be 25 oz, therefore:
(25-x) = amt of 5% alloy:
A typical mixture equation:
.30x + .05(25-x) = .20(25)
.30x + 1.25 - .05x = 5 .30x - .05x = 5 - 1.25
.25x = 3.75
x = 3.75%2F.25
x = 15 oz of 30% alloy required
then
25-15 = 10 oz of 5% alloy:
Check solution
.30(15) + .05(10) = .20(25)
4.5 + .5 = 5
<span>This isn't very difficult to figure out, you just need to look at these numbers in pairs. So, 16 minus 4 is 12. Then the next pair of numbers, 36 minus 9 is 27. And to complete the pattern, you just have to look at the final pair: 44 minus 11 is 33. So the number that would complete the pattern is 33.Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!</span>
Horizontal means zero slope, or a zero coefficient on x.
Answer: y = b
The equation would be 60h=m
