You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = liters of 30% solution
\n" ); document.write( "y = liters of pure acid
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "30x + 100y = 45*15
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 15
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "put the system of linear equations into standard form
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "30x + 100y = 675
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 15
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

\n" ); document.write( "answer:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 11.785714 liters of 30% solution
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3.2142857 liters of pure acid
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "now solved by substitution:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "30x + 100y = 675
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 15
\n" ); document.write( "x = 15 - y
\n" ); document.write( "30(15 - y) + 100y = 675
\n" ); document.write( "450 - 30y + 100y = 675
\n" ); document.write( "70y = 225
\n" ); document.write( "y = 225/70
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3.2142857 liters of pure acid
