Answer:

b = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a(7x+2)=bx+8

=> 7ax + 2a = bx + 8

in both the equation there is a term containing x and a term not containing x.

since value of both equation is equal. hence

term containing x on both side will be equal to each and

term independent of x will be equal in both the equation

thus

7ax = bx

2a = 8

=> a = 8/2 = 4

now, plugging a = 4 in 7ax = bx

7*4x = bx

=> b = 7*4x/x = 28.

Thus, value of b is 28.

One canned juice drink is 25​%orange​ juice; another is 10​%orange juice. how many liters of each should be mixed together in or
sertanlavr [38]
               Qty     ·     %      =      Total
Drink 1:    x            .25      =      .25x
Drink 2:   15 - x      .10      =      .10(15 - x)
Mixture:  15            .21     =       .25x + .10(15 - x)

                       (15)(.21)   =     .25x + 1.5 - .10x
                           3.15      =     .15x + 1.5
                           1.65      =     .15x
                               11     =       x

Drink 1 (25%) is 11 liters
Drink 2 (10%) is 15 - 11 = 4 liters
