2. Soybean meal is 18% protein: cornmeal is 9% protein. How many pounds of each should be mixed together in order to get 360-ld mixture that is 17% protein. 
Pounds of cornmeal that should be in mixture? 
Pounds of soybean meal should be in mixture?


first mixture + second mixture = total mixture


0.18x + 0.09x = 360(0.17)

0.18x + 0.09x(360 - x) = 0.17(360)

Can you take it from here?
