You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x ml. of 10% solution and y ml. of 18% solution, want 12% result, 112 ml. size.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%2810x%2B18y%29%2F112=12\" AND \"x%2By=112\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The percentage equation:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%285x%2B9y%29%2F56=12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"5x%2B9y=672\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "System to solve is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"5x%2B9y=672\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2By=112\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply second equation by 5 and subtract from first equation.
\n" ); document.write( "\"5x%2B9y-5%28x%2By%29=672-5%2A112\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"9y-5y=112\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"4y=112\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=28%29\" ml. of the 18% hydrogen peroxide solution.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now, you can find x, using x+y=112.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
