x and y are the packs of organic and inorganic fertilizer, respectively.
pounds of nitrogen added = 2x + 6y = 120
pounds of potassium added = 3x + 2y = 54
eliminate the y terms. subtract the first equation from 3 times the second equation.
9x + 6y = 162
-2x - 6y = -120
------------------
7x = 42
x = 6
y = 18
m = 36
<u>Work</u>
<em>45 + 2.50m = 3.75m</em>
<em> -3.75m -3.75m</em>
<em>45 - 1.25m = 0</em>
<em>- 45 - 45</em>
<u><em>-1.25</em></u><em>m = </em><u><em>-45</em></u>
<em>-1.25 -1.25</em>
<em> </em>m = 36
Answer:
750 bushels
Step-by-step explanation: 20/300=50/b b=bushels
cross multiply then you get 20b=15000
next you divide 20 by 15000 and you get 750 bushels!
i had the same question just now and figured it out! hope this helped you!
