The unknown value can be called x.
3(2x +4) = 72
6x +12 = 72
72 - 12 = 6x
6x = 60
x = 6x / 6
x = 10
Hope This Helps You!

700, because 8 is 5 and up so it'll be rounded up.
Yes, it should be taken into account
Answer:
First type of fruit drinks: 48 pints
Second type of fruit drinks: 32 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call A the amount of first type of fruit drinks. 55% pure fruit juice
Let's call B the amount of second type of fruit drinks. 80% pure fruit juice
The resulting mixture should have 65% pure fruit juice and 80 pints.
Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

Then the total amount of pure fruit juice in the mixture will be:


Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.8 and add it to the second equation:



+

--------------------------------------



We substitute the value of A into one of the two equations and solve for B.
