Let there be x quarts of the 20% salt solution, and (25 - x) quarts of the 80% salt solution.
Then the total amount of salt in the 20% portion would be 0.2x, while that from the 80% portion would be (0.8)(25 - x). This would have to total up to (0.44)(25) in the final solution, so the equation is:
0.2x + 0.8(25 - x) = (0.44)(25)
-0.6x + 20 = 11
x = 15 quarts of the 20% salt solution
25 - x = 10 quarts of the 80% salt solution

Answer:
$47.92
Step-by-step explanation:
20% discount: $599 * 80% = $479.2 before tax
15% tax added: $479.2 + $71.88 = $551.08
Saved money: $599-$551.08= $47.92
It is the second bubble because there can only be one x per y. For example, (1,3) and (1,4) isn't a function because the x which is 1 has too many y
