a = volume of 45% drink (pints)
\n" ); document.write( "b = volume of 70% drink (pints)
\n" ); document.write( "45a + 70b = 55*170 = 9350
\n" ); document.write( "a + b = 170
\n" ); document.write( "a = 170 - b
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "45a + 70b = 9350
\n" ); document.write( "45(170 - b) + 70b = 9350
\n" ); document.write( "7650 - 45b + 70b = 9350
\n" ); document.write( "7650 + 25b = 9350
\n" ); document.write( "25b = 1700
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "b = 68 pints
\n" ); document.write( "a = 102 pints
