$$50\leq 8x$$ divide by 8 and be done

Soybean meal is 16% protien, cornmeal is 8% protien.How many pounds of each shoud be mixed together to get a 320 pound mixture that is 12% protien?

katrinakaif · Answer

S: number of pounds of soybean 
C: number of pounds of cornmeal

.16(s) + .8(c) = 320(.12) 
s + c = 320

anonymous · Answer

so that would be exactly how many pounds of each?

saifoo.khan · Answer

Answer: 160 lbs of soybeans, 160 lbs of cornmeal.

katrinakaif · Answer

Well turn the equation to something we can work with no messy decimals, so multiply the top equation by 100 resulting:
16s + 8c = 320 (12) ---> 3840
Now subsitute the 's + c = 320' equation for one of the variables, 
s = 320 - c 
Subsitute: 
16(320 - c) + 8c = 3840 
Solve for c, then subsitute that value as 'c' in the equation s + c = 320

anonymous · Answer

which equals how many pounds of each?
