Hello! I need the solution of this verbal problem. (this is the english version)
Â
Find the system of equations to model the problem. Do not solve is system A paper company produces high-grade paper, medium grade and low grade. The number of tons
of each side produced a ton of pulp depends on the source of the pulp. The following table shows
three different sources and amount of each grade of paper that can be produced from a ton of
pulp from each source. Number of tons
High-grade Medium grade Low grade Brazilian pulp 0.6 0.3 0.1 domestic pulp 0.5 0.3 0.2 recycled pulp 0.3 0.4 0.3 The company has received an order for 11 tons of high-grade paper, 15 tons of medium grade
paper and 14 tons of low-grade paper. How many tons of pulp each type should be used to
comply exactly this order? Establishes a system of linear equations. Let x, y and z are equal to
the number of tons of Brazilian pulp, domestic pulp and recycled pulp, respectively, which are
needed to comply the order.
