The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks.
\n" ); document.write( " The first type is 80% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 100% pure fruit juice.
\n" ); document.write( "let a = the amt of 100% juice
\n" ); document.write( "let b = amt of 80% juice required
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " The company is attempting to produce a fruit drink that contains 95% pure fruit juice.
\n" ); document.write( " How many pints of each of the two existing types of drink must be used to make 220 pints of a mixture that is 95% pure fruit juice?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Two equations
\n" ); document.write( "a + b = 220
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "a + .8b = .95(220)
\n" ); document.write( "a + .8b = 209
\n" ); document.write( "Use elimination on these two equation
\n" ); document.write( "a + b = 220
\n" ); document.write( "a +.8b = 209
\n" ); document.write( "---------------subtraction eliminates a, find b
\n" ); document.write( "0 + .2b = 11
\n" ); document.write( "b = 11/.2
\n" ); document.write( "b = 55 pints of 80% juice
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "220 - 55 = 165 pints of 100% juice
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
