Not sure is this is right but if the chemist wants to make the solution 35% acidic then he can use all of the 30% acid and 5% of the 45% acid.
X = (15 - 8y)/9
-5[(15 - 8y)/9] + 12y = -107
(-75/9) + (40/9) + 12y = -107
y = -8.59
x = [15 - 8(-8.59)]/9
x = 9.3
(x,y) = (9.3, -8.59)
Answer:(7,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
B is the correct answer
