Is there a picture to go with it?
Let x be ml of 5% soln.
let 500-x be ml of 25% soln.
.
x*.05=.05x
(500-x)*.25=125-.25x
500*.20=100
.
.05x+125-.25x=100
-.2x=-25
x=-25/-.2
x=125 ml of 5% soln.
500-x=375 ml of 25% soln.
.
Check:
125*.05= 6.25
375*.25=93.75

========100
I believe the answer is D because those equation indicate an area on the negative side
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
The change is 90-100 = -10. As a percentage of the original amount, that is ...
-10/100 × 100% = -10%
The change from 100 to 90 is a reduction of 10%.
