H=30%
\n" ); document.write( "B=8 liters
\n" ); document.write( "T=5%
\n" ); document.write( "w= unknown liters to add to make T concentration\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(Intended component)/(amount of mixture)=resulting concentration
\n" ); document.write( " $\"H%2AB%2F%28B%2Bw%29=T\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"H%2AB=T%28B%2Bw%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"H%2AB=B%2AT%2BTw\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"H%2AB-T%2AB=Tw\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28w=B%2A%28H-T%29%2FT%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
