Let the weight of soymeal be s, and let the weight of cornmeal be c.
You need a total of 280 lb, so that gives us one equation.
s + c = 280
Now we use the protein to write another equation.
The protein in s lb of soymeal is 0.14s.
The protein in c lb of cornmeal is 0.07c.
The protein in 280 lb of 0.09% protein mix is 0.09(280).
This gives us a second equation.
0.14s + 0.07c = 0.09(280)
Now we solve the two equations as a system of equations.
s + c = 280
0.14s + 0.07c = 0.09(280)
Solve the first equation for s and plug in tot eh second equation.
s = 280 - c
0.14(280 - c) + 0.07c = 25.2
39.2 - 0.14c + 0.07c = 25.2
-0.07c = -14
c = 200
Now we substitute c = 200 in the first equation to find s.
s + 200 = 280
s = 80
Answer: 200 lb of soymeal and 80 lb of cornmeal
Answer:
a. 20.5
Step-by-step explanation:
because this will form a right triangle we can use tan (opposite over adjacent) so an equation we could set up would be tan(70)=25/x
therefore we can just solve the equation which would give us 20.45. so if we round it the answer would be a
Answer:
6×2×2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hmm, it looks like it could be commutative property of multiplication.
The order of the expression is different.
4(2+3)=
4(5)=20
(2+3)4=
(5)4= 20
Photomath is the best for fractions, decimals ect. You could also try a scientific calculator.
