Answer:
4.5 % alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = amt of 30% alloy
The resulting total is to be 25 oz, therefore:
(25-x) = amt of 5% alloy:
A typical mixture equation:
.30x + .05(25-x) = .20(25)
.30x + 1.25 - .05x = 5 .30x - .05x = 5 - 1.25
.25x = 3.75
x = 3.75%2F.25
x = 15 oz of 30% alloy required
then
25-15 = 10 oz of 5% alloy:
Check solution
.30(15) + .05(10) = .20(25)
4.5 + .5 = 5
The answer would be 2.
65 x 32 = 2080.
(65 × 30) = <span>1950</span><span>
(65 × 2) = 130
1950 + 130 = 2080
To make this easier, you can 30 from 32.</span>
Answer:
1110
Step-by-step explanation:
0.79 / 16 oz = 0.049 ( price for 1 oz of brown rice)
3.49 / 32 = 0.109 ( price for 1 oz of white rice)
the price per oz of brown rice is cheaper then 1 oz of white rice so the brown rice is the better deal
