How many liters of a 20% alcohol solution should be added to a 10% alcohol solution to create a 50 ml solution that is 15 % alcohol?
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation::
\n" ); document.write( "alch + alch = alch
\n" ); document.write( "0.20x + 0.10(50-x) = 0.15*50
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "20x + 10*50-10x = 15*50
\n" ); document.write( "10x = 5*50
\n" ); document.write( "x = 25 liters (amt. of 20% solution needed)
\n" ); document.write( "50-x = 25 liters (amt. of 10% solution needed)
