Oranges = x
apples = y
8x + 11y = 15.22
x = 0.50
8(0.50) + 11y = 15.22
4 + 11y = 15.22
11y = 15.22 - 4
11y = 11.22
y = 11.22/11
y = 1.02 <== cost of each apple
Answer: 490 grams of the first alloy should be used.
30 grams of the second alloy should be used.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the weight of the first alloy in grams that should be used.
Let y represent the weight of the second alloy in grams that should be used.
A chemist has two alloys, one of which is 15% gold and 20% lead. This means that the amount of gold and lead in the first alloy is
0.15x and 0.2x
The second alloy contains 30% gold and 50% lead. This means that the amount of gold and lead in the second alloy is
0.3y and 0.5y
If the alloy to be made contains 82.5 g of gold, it means that
0.15x + 0.3y = 82.5 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
The second alloy would also contain 113 g of lead. This means that
0.2x + 0.5y = 113 - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 0.2 and equation 2 by 0.15, it becomes
0.03x + 0.06y = 16.5
0.03x + 0.075y = 16.95
Subtracting, it becomes
- 0.015y = - 0.45
y = - 0.45/- 0.015
y = 30
Substituting y = 30 into equation 1, it becomes
0.15x + 0.3 × 30 = 82.5
0.15x + 9 = 82.5
0.15x = 82.5 - 9 = 73.5
x = 73.5/0.15
x = 490
There would be about 19 defective products delivered.
First, let's start with the number of defective games.
100000 x 0.0095 = 950
Now, the test will catch 98% of those defects. That means 2% of the defects will get through to the consumers.
0.02 x 950 = 19
You already got the first two questions right: the group with the highest number of people unemployed / unemployment rate is the one with the highest bar in the respective histogram.
The two graph are related in this sense: take the first age group as reference. We know that 700 people from 16 to 19 are unemployed, and that those people represent 14% of the population, then we know that the 14% of the population between 16 and 19 is 700.
We can deduce that, if x is the number of people between 16 and 19, we have

So, by the relation between the two graphs, we can deduce the total population for each age group.
Answer:
The answer is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
- 14 -(17 - 5) + 8
- 14 -17 + 5 + 8
- -3 + 13 = 10
- 10 is your answer.
