A solution is made by mixing an x amount of concentrate with water. Approximately how many liters(x) of this concentrate should be mixed with 5 liters of water so that 32 percent of the solution is concentrate?
\n" ); document.write( "A) 0.68
\n" ); document.write( "B) 1.6
\n" ); document.write( "C) 2.28
\n" ); document.write( "D) 2.35
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "concentrate + concentrate = concentrate
\n" ); document.write( "x + 0*5 = 0.32(x + 5)
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "100x + 0 = 32*x + 32*5
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "68x = 160
\n" ); document.write( "x = 160/68 = 2.35 liters (amt of concentrate to start with)
