.71x+.49(44-X)=.51*44
\n" ); document.write( ".71X+21.56-.49X=22.44
\n" ); document.write( ".71X-.49X=22.44-21.56
\n" ); document.write( ".22X=.88
\n" ); document.write( "X=.88/.22
\n" ); document.write( "X=4 LITERS OF 71% PESTICIDE.
\n" ); document.write( "44-4=40 LITERS OF 49% PESTICIDE.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF
\n" ); document.write( ".71*4+.49*40=22.44
\n" ); document.write( "2.84+19.6=22.44
