a company blends 1000 bushels of two types of apples to make a beverage that contains 12% real-juice content. One of the two types of apple contains 10% real-juice content and the other contains 15% real juice content. how many bushels of each type of apple are needed?

400 bushels of the 15%

600 bushels of the 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

x bushels of the 15%  plus the balance of 1000 bushels at 10% yield 1000 bushels at 12%

15x + 10(1000 - x) = 12(1000)

distribute

15x + 10000 - 10x = 12000

Combine like terms

5x = 2000

Divide both sides by 5

x = 400 bushels of the 15%

1000 - x = 600 bushels of the 10%
