Bottle 1 has 14 liters of 10% acid and we need to add some of bottle 2 which is
\n" ); document.write( " 60% acid to form a new bottle which is 25% ALCOHOL.
\n" ); document.write( " PART 1- WHAT IS THE VOLUME THAT WE NEED FROM BOTTLE 2?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = vol from bottle 2 required
\n" ); document.write( "Write the decimal equiv mixture equation:
\n" ); document.write( ".10(14) + .60x = .25(x+14)
\n" ); document.write( "1.4 + .60x = .25x + 3.5
\n" ); document.write( ".60x - .25x = 3.5 - 1.4
\n" ); document.write( ".35x = 2.1
\n" ); document.write( "x = $\"2.1%2F.35\"$
\n" ); document.write( "x = 6 liters of 60% acid required
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Part 2- WHAT IS THE VOLUME OF THE NEW BOTTLE??
\n" ); document.write( "14 + 6 = 20 liters \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
