Linear not sure ...........
X = amount of 50% solution
y = total amount after mixing
Note that the amount of alcohol in the 20% solution is 80 (0.2) = 16 oz.
We have 2 unknowns, so we need 2 equations:
first, we can write the equation for the total volume:
y = x + 80
next, apply the percentages to get an equation for the amount of alcohol:
0.4 y = 0.5 x + 16
Finally, solve the pair of equations (in this case, by substitution of the 1st into the second:
0.4 (x + 80) = 0.5x + 16
0.4 x + 32 = 0.5X + 16
rearrange and combine like terms:
0.1x = 16
x = 160
from the 1st equation:
y = 160 + 80 = 240
I'm assuming this is a system of equations you want solved so,
x = -y + 3
-2(-y+3)+4y = 6
2y - 6 + 4y = 6
6y = 12
y = 2
x + 2 = 3
x = -1
(-1,2)
-29/6<x<25/6
I'm sorry I can't graph because Brainly won't take my Img.
But I will tell you that it is a closed circle.
