Paladinen [302]3 years ago

Answer:

16 bags for the first(30% pure) and 64 bags of the second(80% pure)

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are mixed in a ratio of x bags to y bags

(0.3x+0.8y)/(x+y) = 0.7

0.3x + 0.8y = 0.7(x+y)

Multiply both sides with 10

3x + 8y = 7(x+y)

4x = y ——(1)

x + y = 80 ——(2)

Solve simultaneously

x + 4x = 80

5x = 80

x = 16 bags

y = 4x = 64 bags

Hot air balloon travels 18 miles in 3 hour. At this rate how many miles will the hot air balloon travel in 3/4 hour?
seropon [69]
You can figure out how many miles per hour it travels by dividing 18/3. This gives us the answer of 6. 3/4 = 0.75 so we can multiply 6 * 0.75 to get 4.5 as our final answer. It will travel 4.5 miles in 3/4 of an hour.
