If we used “a” tons of grade A and “b” tons of grade B we would get a + b tons of mixture.
Converting to costs we get 36a + 24b = 33(a + b)
36a + 24b = 33a + 33b
36a - 33a = 33b - 24b
3a = 9b
a = 3b
This means the mixture contains 3 times as much of grade A than grade B
The ratio of grade A : grade B = 3 : 1
For example if we mixed 3 tons of A with 1 ton of B we would get 4 tons of mixture
The cost would be 3 x 36 + 1 x 24 = 108 + 24 = $132 for 4 tons = $33 per ton
Answer:
x = -10 or x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the given equation is

The given equation can be solved by the method of SPLITTING THE MIDDLE TERM
Split 13 in such a way that sum of the terms = 13
and product of the terms = 30
So, the given equation becomes 
Here, 10x+ 3x = 13x and 10 x 3 = 30
Now, simplifying the equation,

⇒ either (x+ 10) = 0 ,or (x+ 3) = 0
⇒ x = -10 or x = -3
2(n-7) = 3(n+7)
2n-14 = 3n + 21
-35 = n (answer)

Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio is the ratio of successive terms:
16/64 = 4/16 = 1/4
The common ratio is 1/4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
no, he is not. He literally added the numerators and the denominators. When ur adding fractions with the same denominator, u just add the numerators and keep the same denominator.
1/5 + 2/5 = 3/5
