Let x = liters 20% solution to be added
then

.12(12) + .20x = .14(12+x)
.12(12) + .20x = .14(12+x)
1.44 + .20x = 1.68 + .14x
.20x = .24 + .14x
.06x = .24
x = 4 liters


Hope this helped!!

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Marion bought 6  frog lures and 8 lizard fishing lures.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f represent frog lures and l represent lizard lures.


The total packages Marion bought is

f+l=14...eqn1


If she bought frog lures in packages of 4 and lizard lures in packages of 6 for a total of 72 lures, then

4f+6l=72...eqn2


We make f the subject in equation 1 and put it into equation 2 to get;

f=14-l...eqn3


We put equation 3 into equation 2 to get;

4(14-l)+6l=72


\Righttarrow 2(14-l)+3l=36


We expand the bracket to get;

28-2l+3l=36


-2l+3l=36-28


l=8


We put l=8 into equation 3 to get;

f=14-8


f=6

Therefore Marion bought 6  frog lures and 8 lizard fishing lures.
