\n" ); document.write( "Amount of 15% OJ = x liters ; amt of active ingredient = 0.15x liters
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Amount of 10% OJ=\"5-x\" liters;amt of active ingredient=0.10(5-x)=0.5-0.1x lits
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Amount of 14% OJ=5 liters; amt of active ingredient = 0.14*5 = 0.7
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "active + active = active
\n" ); document.write( "0.15x + 0.5 - 0.10x = 0.7
\n" ); document.write( "15x + 50 - 10x = 70
\n" ); document.write( "5x=20
\n" ); document.write( "x=4 liters (amount of 15% OJ)
\n" ); document.write( "5-x = 1 liter (amount of 10% OJ)
