Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
14 pints of 20% juice
56 pints of 95% juice
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x be pints of 20% pure fruit juice, thus
70 - x will be pints of 95% pure fruit juice
The equation, thus can be written as:
20%x + 95% (70-x) = 80% (70)
Solving for x:

And 70 - x would be 70 - 14 = 56
Thus,
14 pints of 20% juice is needed, and
56 pints of 95% juice is needed
X= 2 over 9 or in decimal form 0.2222....
Answer: (15/2, 33/2) or (7.5, 16.5)
depending on if you want fractions or decimals
explanation:
equation for midpoint... (avg x, avg y)
x-coordinate: (6+9)/2 = 15/2 = 7.5
y-coordinate: (17+16)/2 = 33/2 = 16.5
