One canned juice drink is 15% orange juice; another is 5% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in order to get 10L that is 8% orange juice?
\n" ); document.write( "How many liters of the 15% orange juice should be in the mixture?
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = amt of 15% o.j required
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The resulting mixture is to be 10l, therefore:
\n" ); document.write( "(10-x) = amt of 5% o.j.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "% orange juice equation
\n" ); document.write( ".15x = .05(10-x) = .08(10)
\n" ); document.write( ".15x + .5 - .05x = .8
\n" ); document.write( ".15x - .05x = .8 - .5
\n" ); document.write( ".10x = .3
\n" ); document.write( "x = \".3%2F.1\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3 liters of 15% o.j.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "How many liters of the 5% ORANGE juice should be in the mixture?
\n" ); document.write( "10 - 3 = 7 liters of 5% o.j.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check solution
\n" ); document.write( ".15(3) + .05(7) =
\n" ); document.write( ".45 + .35 = .08(10) \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
