How many gallons of a 60% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 90 gallons of 10% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 50% difference?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = amount (gallons) of 60% antifreeze
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( ".60x + .10(90) = .50(x+90)
\n" ); document.write( ".60x + 9 = .50x+45
\n" ); document.write( ".10x + 9 = 45
\n" ); document.write( ".10x = 36
\n" ); document.write( "x = 360 gallons\r
