Algebra.Com's Answer #260727 by robertb(5830)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 0.75x + 0.25(400-x) = 0.45*400, \n" ); document.write( "0.75x + 100-0.25x = 180, \n" ); document.write( "0.50x = 80, \n" ); document.write( "x = 160 ml of the 75% acid solution, and \n" ); document.write( "400 - x = 240 ml of the 25% acid solution. \n" ); document.write( " |
