How many gallons of a plant food that is 6% nitrogen must be combined with another plant food that is 30% nitrogen to make 10 gal of a plant food that is 15% nitrogen?

x = 6 1/4

y = 3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = gallons of 6% nitrogen

let 'y' = gallons of 30% nitrogen

system of equations:

x + y = 10;  let y = 10-x

6x + 30y = 10(15)

substitute '10-x':

6x + 30(10-x) = 150

6x + 300 - 30x = 150

-24x = -150

x = 6 1/4

y = 3 3/4

answer: the 4 kilogram bag

step-by-step explanation: this is because if you divide the number of kilograms into the total it will tell you how much each individual kilogram would be worth. 2 kilos is 7 and change 3 would be around 6 ish and the 4 kilo would be 4.6 and change and the 5 kilos would be like 4.88

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!
