A solution that is 34% antifreeze is going to be enriched by adding pure antifreeze. How much of each is needed to generate 4 gallons of a solution that is 63% antifreeze?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let x = amt of 34% solution
\n" ); document.write( "the total amt is to be 4 gal, therefore
\n" ); document.write( "(4-x) = amt of pure antifreeze
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ".34x + (4-x) =.63(4)
\n" ); document.write( ".34x + 4 - x = 2.52
\n" ); document.write( "-.66x = 2.52 - 4
\n" ); document.write( "-.66x = -1.48
\n" ); document.write( "x = -1.48/-.66
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2.24 gal of the 34% solution
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "4 - 2.24 = 1.76 gal of the pure antifreeze
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
