How many gallons of an 80% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 100 gallons of 30% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifreeze?
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "anti + anti = anti
\n" ); document.write( "0.80x + 0.30*100 = 0.70*(x+100)
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "80x + 30*100 = 70x + 70*100
\n" ); document.write( "10x = 40*100
\n" ); document.write( "x = 400 gallons (amt. of 80% solution to add)
