Step-by-step explanation:

If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80

Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.

We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.

We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.

x = 80 - y

.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12

9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12

.08y = 2.4

y = 30

x = 80 - 30 = 50

A fitness center charges $3 per visit plus a monthly fee of $30. How much would it cost in one month if Ella has 18 visits?
suter [353]
Her total should be 84. You have your 30 dollars that will not change which you need to add to the amount of every visit. To find the amount for each time she went you have to do 3*18 because she went 18 times for 3 dollars each. Your answer to 3*18 should be 54. You now have to add those 54 to the 30 per month. 30+54. That should be 84
