You are being asked to find the amounts of each yogurt blend to get 60 pounds of yogurt that is 1% fat. \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let x = the amount of 3% yogurt and 60-x = the amount of nonfat yogurt ; you can set then set up your table.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Amount * Percent = Amount of Yogurt \n" ); document.write( "3% yogurt (x * .03 = .03x) \n" ); document.write( "Nonfat ((60-x) * 0 = 0(60-x)) \n" ); document.write( "1% yogurt (60 * .01 = .01(60))\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve the equation \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, you need 20 lbs of 3% yogurt and 40 lbs of nonfat to get 60 lbs of 1% fat yogurt. \n" ); document.write( "Good Luck! \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
