\n" ); document.write( "How much of​ a(n) 60% orange juice drink must be mixed with 9 gallons of a 40% orange juice drink
\n" ); document.write( "to obtain a mixture that is 50% orange​ juice?
\n" ); document.write( "The amount of 60% orange juice drink is x gallons.
\n" ); document.write( "​(Type an integer or a​ decimal.)

\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "If the amount of the 60% juice is x gallons, the the total volume of the final mixture is (x+9) gallons.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "x gallons of the 60% juica contain  0.6x   gallons of the pure juice.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "9 gallons of the 40% juica contain  0.4*9  gallons of the pure juice.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The final mixture should contain  0.5(x+9)  gallons of the pure juice.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now you write equation\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    0.6x + 0.4*9 = 0.5(x+9),\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "saying that the total of pure juice in ingredients is the same as it is in the final mixture.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    +--------------------------------------------------------------+\r\n" );
document.write( "    |    As soon as you get this equation, the setup is complete,  |\r\n" );
document.write( "    |            and now your task is to solve it.                 |\r\n" );
document.write( "    +--------------------------------------------------------------+\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "From the equation\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    0.6x - 0.5x = 0.5*9 - 0.4*9\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "        0.1x    =     0.9\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "           x    =     0.9/0.1 = 9.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "ANSWER.  9 gallons of the 60% juice must be mixed.\r\n" );
