A car radiator contains 5 liters of a 25% antifreeze solution. How many liters must be removed and replaced by a 75% antifreeze solution to leave the radiator filled with a 55% antifreeze solution?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = amount of anti-freeze removed AND replaced w/75% antifreeze
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( ".25(5-x) + .75x = .55(5)
\n" ); document.write( "1.25 - .25x + .75x = 2.75
\n" ); document.write( "1.25 + .50x = 2.75
\n" ); document.write( ".50x = 1.50
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3 Liters\r
