Answer:
Each pitcher has the same fraction of the other drink.
Step-by-step explanation:
After 1 cup of tea is added to x cups of lemonade, the mix has the ratio 1:x of tea to lemonade. So, the fraction of mix that is tea is 1/(x+1).
The 1 cup of mix contains 1/(x+1) cups of tea and so x/(x+1) cups of lemonade. When that amount of lemonade is added to the tea, it brings the proportion of lemonade in the tea to (x/(x+1))/x = 1/(x+1), the same proportion as that of tea in the lemonade.
_____
You can consider the degenerate case of one cup of drink in each pitcher. Then when the 1 cup of tea is removed from its pitcher and added to the lemonade, you have a 50-50 mix of tea and lemonade. Removing 1 cup of that mix and putting it back in the tea pitcher makes there be a 50-50 mix in both pitchers.
Increasing the quantity in each pitcher does nothing to change the fact that the mixes end up in the same ratio:
tea:lemonade in Pitcher 1 = lemonade:tea in Pitcher 2
Answer:
Elliot will make 4 hats and 16 scarves
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of hats and y be the number of scarves Elliot will make.
Elliott wants to make a total of 20 items, then
x + y = 20
Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn, so x hats use 0.2x kilograms of yarn and each scarf uses 0.1 kilogram of yarn, then y scarves use 0.1y kilograms of yarn. Elliott wants to use twice as much yarn for scarves as for hats, then
0.1y = 2(0.2x)
Thus,
0.1y = 0.4x
y = 4x
Substitute it into the first equation:
x + 4x = 20
5x = 20
x = 4
y = 20 - 4
y = 16
Hence, Elliot will make 4 hats and 16 scarves
