You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let x ounces of herbs costing $1 be added.
\n" ); document.write( "Then 30(2) + (x)(1) = (30+x)(1.6)
\n" ); document.write( "==> 60 + x = 48 + 1.6x
\n" ); document.write( "==> 60 - 48 = 1.6x - x
\n" ); document.write( "==> 12 = 0.6x
\n" ); document.write( "==> 12/0.6 = x
\n" ); document.write( "==> x = 20\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus 20 ounces cosing $1 need to be added,\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Good luck
