You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let s be the amount of Soybean and c is the amount of cornmeal
\n" ); document.write( "The total is 320 lbs: s + c = 320\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The mixture is 0.16s + 0.08c = 320(0.15)= 48\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve this system:
\n" ); document.write( "s + c = 320
\n" ); document.write( "0.16s + 0.08c = 48\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hint: s = 280 lbs and c = 40 lbs\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "There you go!
