\n" ); document.write( "80(5)+2x=10(x+5)
\n" ); document.write( "400+2x=10x+50
\n" ); document.write( "-8x=-350
\n" ); document.write( "x=43.75\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hence, about 43.75ml of sloution is needd.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2.80(500)-30x=50(500+x)
\n" ); document.write( "40000-30x=50x+25000
\n" ); document.write( "-80x=-15000
\n" ); document.write( "x=187.5
\n" ); document.write( "500-187.5 = 312.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hence, about 187.5mg of 30% is needed and about 312.5mg of 50% is needed.
