x = amount of 21% alloy
y = amount of 50% alloy
The metallurgist wants a combination weighing a total of 44 lb, so
x + y = 44
Each pound of either alloy contributes either 0.21 or 0.5 pound of titanium. The final product needs to be comprised of 37% titanium; weighing at 44 lb, this means it should contain 0.37 * 44 = 16.28 lb. So
0.21x + 0.5y = 16.28
From the first equation,
x + y = 44 ==> y = 44 - x
Substitute this into the second equation and solve for x:
0.21x + 0.5(44 - x) = 16.28
-0.29x = -5.72 ==> x = 19.72
Substitute this into the first equation to solve for y:
19.72 + y = 44 ==> y = 24.28
Answer:
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Algebraic Equation is an equation where alphabets are used to represent numbers.
Solving the above question,
Let the number = y
Therefore,
Sum of the number = y + 3
If it's subtracted from 10 it becomes
10 - ( y + 3 )
The result : 10 - y - 3 = 5
- y = 5 - 10 + 3
- y = -2
Therefore,
y = 2
If we are supposed to assume that QS=TV
4v+3=7v-9
minus 4v both sides
3=3v-9
add 9
12=3v
divide 3
4=v
v=4
sub back
4v+3=QS=TV
4(4)+3=QS=TV
16+3=QS
19=QS=TV
then answer is C
Answer:
16 tomatoes
Step-by-step explanation:
50+3t=98
3t=48
t=16
The correct answer is d that is because if it is 1 onch per 15 miles then do 11x15 and you get 165 c and d are the only 2 close enough to be it but from there you can cancel c because its 11.3 which means it must be more than 165. and d is the only one that is greater then 165
