Answer:
20kg of 25% copper alloy
30kg of 60% copper alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 kinds of metal, first metal(A) have 25% copper while the second metal(B) has 60% copper. The metalworker want to create 50kg of metal, which means the total weight of both metals is 50kg (A+B = 50). The metalworker also want the metal made of a 46% which is 23kg(0.25A + 0.6B = 0.46*50). From these sentences, we can derive 2 equations. We can solve this with substitution.
A+B = 50
A= 50-B
Let's put the first equation into the second.
0.25A + 0.6B = 0.46 *50
0.25(50-B) + 0.6B =23
12.5 - 0.25B + 0.6B =23
0.35B=23 -12.5
B= 10.5/ 0.35= 30
Then we can solve A
A= 50-B
A= 50-30
A=20
Answer: I not super sure, but I think you are supposed to put the equations on each side of the table. Your end result should be 2x to the second -5x-3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A.
While D is partially correct, A is the way to go, because samples are easier to collect than whole populations. The internet quotes, "It is a much quicker process and is more time efficient." This proves the theory why A is the correct answer.
Answer: number of adults = 3, number of children = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number of adults be x, and the number of children be y.
x + y = 8 , 15x + 8y = 85
1st equation x 8 = 8x + 8y = 64

substitute x=3

So 5% of workers are not women, and 220 workers are not women, so 220 is 5% of the total workers. 220 is 5% of 4400, so there are 4400 workers in all.
