Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the mass of 30% copper alloy, and y is the mass of 65% copper alloy, then:

x + y = 80

0.30x + 0.65y = 0.51(80)

Solving the system of equations using substitution:

0.30x + 0.65(80 − x) = 0.51(80)

0.30x + 52 − 0.65x = 40.8

11.2 = 0.35x

x = 32

y = 80 − x

y = 48

The metalworker needs 32 kg of 30% copper alloy and 48 kg of 65% copper alloy.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

The equation is:

409 = T - 223

And the solution is:

T = 632

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent Kiran with K and Tyler with T

Kiran score is represented as:

K = 409

Also, Kiran scored 223 less than Tyler.

This is represented as:

K = T - 223

Substitute 409 for K

409 = T - 223

Make T the subject

T = 409 +223

T = 632
