Solution:
\n" ); document.write( " \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "http://www.algebra.com/cgi-bin/display-illustration.mpl?tutor=ghostrecog&illustration_name=solution.bmp&size=thumbnail
\n" ); document.write( "Refer from the above url, consists of table which explains the below equation.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Then the Equation as follows
\n" ); document.write( "0.80x+0.35(300-x)=300(.50)
\n" ); document.write( "0.80x+105-0.35x=150
\n" ); document.write( "0.45x=45
\n" ); document.write( "x=100 of 80% of acid solution
\n" ); document.write( "300-x=200 of 35% of Acid solution. When mixed together we get 300 liters of solution.
\n" ); document.write( " check:
\n" ); document.write( " 0.80(100) =80 liters
\n" ); document.write( " 0.35(300-x)=70 liters
\n" ); document.write( " ----------------------
\n" ); document.write( " 300(.50) =150 liters
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
