If you simplified a two-equation system and all variables were eliminated, two outcomes are possible.
If the final equation is a true equation, like 3=3, then the system has an <em>infinite number of solutions </em> (the equations graph the same line, and all points appear on both graphs)
If the final solution is a mathematically false equation, like 0=-8, the system has no solution. The lines are parallel and never intersect (have a solution)
You will need 252 mL of pure water to obtain 0.25 mL of the desired 25% solution.
If we add X amount of water to the solution, the total amount of solution is 375+X.
And that must be 25%.
<h3>
What is the amount of solute in the current solution?</h3>
The amount of solute in the current amount of solution is
0.6(375)=225.
That amount won't change by adding water.
So we set up the equation so that the amount of solute divided by the new total amount of solution equals 25%.
225/(375+X)=0.25
cross multiply and solve
225/0.25=(375+X)
900-375=X
X=525
The pure water will you need to add to obtain the desired solution is 525.
Then we check 225/(375+525)=0.25.
