1/ Three grades of milk are 1%,2%, and 3% fat by volume, if x gallons of the 1% grade, y gallons of the 2% grade, z gallons of 3% grade are mixed together to give x+y+z gallons of a 1.5% grade, what's x in terms of y and z?
(1) y+3z (2) y+z/4 (3) 2y+3z (4) 3y+z (5) 3y+4.5z
2/ A certain stock exchange designates each stock with a one-, two-, or three-letter code,where each letter is selected from the 26 letters of the alphabet. If the letters may be repeated and if the same letters used in a different order consistute a different code, how many different stocks is it possible to uniquely designate with these codes?
(1) 2951 (2) 8125 (3) 15600 (4) 16302 (5) 18278

1*x + 2*y + 3*z = 1.5*(x + y + z) 0.5*y + 1.5*z = 0.5*x y + 3*z = x
