Let the required amount of the second alloy be x, then
0.15 x 20 + 0.1x = 0.12(20 + x)
3 + 0.1x = 2.4 + 0.12x
0.12x - 0.1x = 3 - 2.4
0.02x = 0.6
x = 0.6/0.02 = 30
Therefore, to make a 12% mixture, 30 pounds of the secon mixture should be added.
Hey there!!
A chicken has 1 head and 2 feet . A goat has 1 head and 4 feet
For heads, total = 40
Let us take the number of chickens as ' x ' and goats as ' y '
x + y = 40 ------------- ( 1 )
2x + 4y = 150 ----------- ( 2 )
Multiply the first equation with 2
2x + 2y = 80
2x + 4y = 150
Subtract the first equation from the first
2y = 70
y = 35
Number of goats = 35
substitute this in other equation
x + y = 40
x + 35 = 40
x = 5
Number of chickens are 4
Hope it helps!
