A chemist mixes an 11% acid solution with a 4 % acid solution . How many milliters of each solution should the use to make a 700ml solution that is 6% acid ?
\n" ); document.write( "***
\n" ); document.write( "let x=amt of 11% solution to mix
\n" ); document.write( "700-x=amt of 4% solution to mix
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "11%x+4%(700-x)=6%*700
\n" ); document.write( ".11x+28-.04x=42

\n" ); document.write( "x=200
\n" ); document.write( "700-x=500
\n" ); document.write( "amt of 11% solution to mix=200 ml
\n" ); document.write( "amt of 4% solution to mix=500 ml
