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
Man tbh wth is this at this point just trow that mug out the window
The equation in standard form would be,
All you have to do is move -2/7x to the other side.
Hope this helped
:D

Sale Price = $157.5 (answer). This means the cost of the item to you is $157.5. You will pay $157.5 for a item with original price of $175 when discounted 10%. In this example, if you buy an item at $175 with 10% discount, you will pay 175 - 17.5 = 157.50 dollars.
Hope this helps!
