There's no equation to solve, until you tell us
what that expression is equal to.
You would have to multiply then subtract
30% is .30

Answer:
<h2>36.14 pounds of 34% copper alloy and 9.86 pounds of 48% copper alloy</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
First alloy contains 34% copper and the second alloy contains 48% alloy.
We wish to make 46 pounds of a third alloy containing 37% copper.
Let the weight of first alloy used be
in pounds and the weight of second alloy used be
in pounds.
Total weight =

Total weight of copper = 

Subtracting 34 times first equation from second equation,

∴ 36.14 pounds of first alloy and 9.86 pounds of second alloy were used.
