150*0.70 + x*1.00 = (150+x)*0.80\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> 105 + x = 120 + 0.80x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> x - 0.80x = 120 - 105\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> 0.20x = 15\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> x = 75 milliliters of pure acid must be added.
