Step-by-step explanation:
If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80
Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.
We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.
We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.
x = 80 - y
.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12
9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12
.08y = 2.4
y = 30
x = 80 - 30 = 50

Answer:
x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall this rule of exponents:
a^b*a^c = a^(b+c)
We have:
6^9*6^x = 6^2
Then 9 + x = 2. Subtracting 9 from both sides, we get: x = -7
