A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 30% pure
antifreeze, and the second brand i$ 80% pure
antifreeze. In order to obtain 80 gallons of a
mixture that contains 70o£ pure antifreeze, hov
mabry gallons of each band ot antifneze must
bo used?

16 bags for the first(30% pure) and 64 bags of the second(80% pure)

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are mixed in a ratio of x bags to y bags

(0.3x+0.8y)/(x+y) = 0.7

0.3x + 0.8y = 0.7(x+y)

Multiply both sides with 10

3x + 8y = 7(x+y)

4x = y ——(1)

x + y = 80 ——(2)

Solve simultaneously

x + 4x = 80

5x = 80

x = 16 bags

y = 4x = 64 bags

i = 2 / - 5
