-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assumptions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let x be the amount of 25% orange juice
Let y be the amount of 10% orange juice

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 15 litres of 13% orange juice
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 15

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 15 litres of juice is 13% orange juice
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.25x + 0.1y = 15 x 0.13
0.25x + 0.1y = 1.95

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rewrite the equations and solve for x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 15 ----------------------- (Equation 1)
0.25x + 0.1y = 1.95 ----------- (Equation 2)

(Equation 1):
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y  ----------- (Substitute into Equation 2)

0.25 (15 - y) + 0.1y = 1.95
3.75 - 0.25y + 0.1y = 1.95
0.15y  = 1.8 
y = 18 ÷ 0.15
y = 12 ------------- (substitute into Equation 1)

x + y = 15
x + 12  = 15
x = 15 - 12
x = 3

x = 3 and y = 12

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 3 liters of 25% of orange juice with 12 liters of 10% orange juice
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Triangles MNP & MAB are similar (NP//AB & Angle A= Angle N (correspondent) Same for P & B

We know that MA = 67.2 -3.2 = 35.2
Since Triangles MNP & MAB are similar , then we can write the following ratio:

MN/MA=MP/MB or 67.2/35.2 =81.9/x
& x= 43 m
