One alloy is 2 parts iron and 3 parts silver and another alloy is 7 parts iron to 3 parts silver. How much of each should be combined to produce a 30 pound alloy that is one part iron to one part silver

Respuesta :

snx2

Answer:

Let x be your first alloy

2/5x+7/10(30-x)=1/2(30)

4x+210-7x=150

3x=60

x=20

So, you need 20 lbs of the first alloy, and 10 parts of the second to make 30 lbs of half iron and half silver alloy

Answer:

20 pounds for first 10 for second.
