Algebra.Com's Answer #553785 by richwmiller(17219)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! We have 50 mL of 25% solution \n" ); document.write( "We want to add some 68% solution to make 43% solution \n" ); document.write( "0.68*x+0.25*50=0.43(50+x) \n" ); document.write( "0.68*x+12.5=21.5+0.43x \n" ); document.write( "0.68x-0.43x=21.5-12.5 \n" ); document.write( "0.25x=9 \n" ); document.write( "x=36 mL at 68% (24.48) is added to 50 mL at 25%(12.5) to make 43% of 86 mL(36.98) \n" ); document.write( "check \n" ); document.write( "0.68*36+0.25*50=0.43(50+36) \n" ); document.write( "24.48+12.5=0.43(86) \n" ); document.write( "36.98=36.98 \n" ); document.write( "ok \n" ); document.write( "codemixadd \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
