How many cubic centimeters of a 20% saline solution should be added to 20 cubic centimeters of a 60% saline solution to create a 30% saline solution?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let x = amt of 20% solution to accomplish this
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ".60(20) + .20x = .30(x+20)
\n" ); document.write( "12 + .20x = .30x + 6
\n" ); document.write( "12 - 6 = .30x - .20x
\n" ); document.write( ".10x = 6
\n" ); document.write( "x = 6/.1
\n" ); document.write( "x = 60 cu/cm
