One canned orange juice is 25% orange juice another is 5% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in orde

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$X = \frac{1.6 - 0.05Y}{0.25}= 6.4 -0.2 Y$ (3)

Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:

$0.75(6.4 -0.2 Y) +0.95 Y = 18.4$

And solving for Y we got:

$4.8 -0.15 Y +0.95 Y = 18.4$

$0.8 Y = 13.6$

$Y = 17$

And solving for X from equation (3) we got:

$X= 6.4 -0.2*17 = 3$

So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we can work with the concentration of water and orange juice.

Let X the amount for the orange juice with 25% content and Y the amount for the orange juice with 5% of content

Using the concentration of orange juice we have:

$0.25 X + 0.05 Y = 20*0.08$ (1)

And for the water we have:

$0.75 X + 0.95Y = 20*0.92$ (2)

If we solve for X from equation (1) we got:

$X = \frac{1.6 - 0.05Y}{0.25}= 6.4 -0.2 Y$ (3)

Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:

$0.75(6.4 -0.2 Y) +0.95 Y = 18.4$

And solving for Y we got:

$4.8 -0.15 Y +0.95 Y = 18.4$

$0.8 Y = 13.6$

$Y = 17$

And solving for X from equation (3) we got:

$X= 6.4 -0.2*17 = 3$

So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration

On a coordinate plane, triangles R S T and L M N are shown. Triangle R S T has points (5, 5), (2, 1), and (1, 3). Triangle L M N

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

LMN has a larger area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

RST

$R =(5,5)$

$S= (2,1)$

$T = (1,3)$

LMN

$L = (0,-1)$

$M= (2,-4)$

$N= (-2,-3)$

Required

Compare both areas

The area of triangle is:

$Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|$

For RST, we have:

$Area = \frac{1}{2}|5*1 - 2*5 + 2*3 - 1*1 + 1*5 - 5*3|$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}|-10|$

Remove absolute signs

$Area = \frac{1}{2}*10$

$Area = 10$

For LMN, we have:

$Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}|0*-4-2*-1+2*-3--2*-4--2*-1-0*-3|$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}|-14|$

Remove absolute signs

$Area = \frac{1}{2}*14$

$Area = 7$

<em>By comparing both areas, we can conclude that LMN has a larger area</em>
