56*365=20440
56/4=14 (this is how many leap years are within 56 years)
20440+14=20454 days
So the best way to do these is concentration1 (%) × volume1 = concentration2 × volume2
Or C1V1 + C2V2 = C3V3, where C1 = 100% (bc ALL pecans), V1 = 6 lbs, C2 = 70%, C3 = 82%:
100%×6 + 70%×v2 = 82%×(6+v2)
100%=1.00, 70%=.7, 82%=.82
note: if none is poured out then v3 = v1+v2
6 + .7v2 = .82 (6+v2)
6 + .7v2 = 4.92 + .82v2
6 + .7v2 -.7v2 = 4.92 + .82v2 -.7v2
6 = 4.92 + .12v2
6-4.92 = 4.92-4.92 + .12v2
1.08 = .12v2
.12v2/.12 = 1.08/.12
v2 = 9 lbs
that's only v2!!!
For the final poundage, we need v3:
v3 = 6 + v2 = 6 + 9 = 15 lbs
1/7 = 3/4x-1
3/4x=1/7+1=8/7
x=8/7*4/3=32/21
I believe that the answer is 20. I am not entirely sure though.
Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
Since we use 5 parts blue and 3 parts red, the total sections is 8.
28/8 = 3.5
We want to find the red which is 3 parts.
3.5 * 3 = 10.5.
Your answer should be 10.5 pints of red.
Hope this helps!
