Casper has some whipping cream that is 18% butterfat and some milk that is 4% butterfat. He wants to make 500 ML of them that is 12%, percent butterfat.

Here's a graph that shows a system of equations for this scenario where x is the volume of whipping cream he uses and y is the volume of milk he uses.

Respuesta :

The solution to the system of equations from the graph is x = 285.7 and y = 214.3

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let y represent the the volume of milk he uses and x the volume of whipping cream he uses. Hence:

x + y = 500   (1)

Also:

0.18x + 0.04y = 500(0.12)    (2)

From the graph:

x = 285.7 and y = 214.3

The solution to the system of equations from the graph is x = 285.7 and y = 214.3
