Question 931770: The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is
50%
pure fruit juice, and the second type is
65%
pure fruit juice. The company is attempting to produce a fruit drink that contains
60%
pure fruit juice. How many pints of each of the two existing types of drink must be used to make
180
pints of a mixture that is
60%
pure fruit juice? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = pints of 50%
y = pints of 65%
---
x + y = 180
50x + 65y = 60*180
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y = 180
50x + 65y = 10800
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
