Orange Juice: price 70 Rs/L, 20 L available
\n" ); document.write( "Mango Juice: h = price, 30 L available\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Price for mixture 95 Rs/L
\n" ); document.write( "Profit for mixture: 25%.
\n" ); document.write( "h = price for 1 Liter Mango Juice
\n" ); document.write( "FIND h.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "What is the COST for the mixture? Better, what is the base PRICE for the mixture?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c=base price in Rs/L;\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%28%2820%2A70%2B30h%29%2F50=c%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The profit was \"25%2F100=1%2F4\" of THE COST FOR THE MIXTURE. Symbolized, this is
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F4%2950%2Ac\", the profit in units of Rs.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "REVENUE minus cost is profit, and we have a symbolized number just shown, for profit.
\n" ); document.write( "Revenue: \"95%2A50\"
\n" ); document.write( "Cost: \"c%2A50\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight_green%2895%2A50-c%2A50=%281%2F4%29c%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve the profit equation for c; and so the price for the MIXTURE will be known.
\n" ); document.write( "Solve , using now known c, for h in the mixture equation. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I started and analyzed this on paper but did not finish solving. Tell me if any trouble.
