You have a one liter container of a 5% salt, a 500 ml container of a 28% salt solution, and a 400 ml container of a 40% salt solution. Show the work necessary to calculate the cheapest method of preparing the 17% salt solution if the 5% salt solution costs $28 per liter, the 28% solution costs $38 per liter, and the 40% solution costs $50 per liter. Be sure to explain in paragraph form why you have selected the amounts of each and the total cost of your selection.
