Answer:
200 pounds 20% raisins
800 pounds 5% raisins
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of 5% be x
and number of 20% be y
x + y = 1000
Also;
5% of x + 20-% of y = 8% of 1000 pounds
= 0.05x + 0.2y = 80
From i , x = 1000-y
0.05(1000-y) + 0.2y = 80
50-0.05y + 0.2y = 80
0.15y = 30
y = 200
x = 1000 - y
= 1000-200 = 800
Again, nice problem. These are not super easy. You need to imagine the triangles in the figure and relate sides.
For instance: ADC, its hypotenuse is 15
For ABC, it is 20,
so 20/15 is the ratio between both triangles. Now let's choose the side with 'x'
x is one side of ADC, the corresponding side in ABC is 15 (the second longest sides). You need to rotate the triangles, etc ... That's the tricky part :)
So:
20/15 =15/x ----> x = 15*15/20 = 225/20 = 45/4
Which is C
Not sure whether it's too late to help you though!!!!
Also notice that it's kind of a product rule:
x * 20 = 15 * 15
I am sure the book explains a short way of getting to this equation, like sides opposite, blah blah, but what i told you is the reason. You asked for understanding it! Best luck!

35+28=63
100-63=37
The answer would be B) all the powers have the value of 1 because the exponent is zero
