The equation is 0.1x + 0.15(50-x)=1.20(50)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you need 50ml of 12% alcohol solution.

You have 10% and 15% alcohol solutions.

Take volume of 10% alcohol solution to be x ml

Take volume of 15% alcohol solution to be y ml

Form equations;

x+y=50 ml--------------------------equation 1

0.1x +0.15 y= 12% of 50

0.1x+0.15y=6-----------------------equation 2

Now you have simultaneous equations, use a graph tool to solve for values of x and y as attached.

or use the mixture equation the get value of x

0.1x + 0.15(50-x)=1.20(50)

The values of x and y are ;

(x,y) (30,20) which means;

y is 20 ml of 15% alcohol

x is 30 ml of 10% alcohol
