Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of ounces of
A = x
B = y
A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 40% salt and Solution B is 55% salt. She wants to obtain 90 ounces of a mixture that is 45% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?
Our system of equations is given as
x + y = 90.... Equation 1
x = 90 - y
40% × x + 55% × y = 45% × 90 ounces
0.4x + 0.55y = 40.5....Equation 2
We substitute 90 - y for x in Equation 2
14+2x=62 (x=Pass cost)
-14 -14
(2x=48)/2
x=24
6.50+5.75+1.15x=18
12.25+1.15x=18
-12.25 -12.25
1.15x=5.75 divide both sides by 1.15
x=5
