x+y=5
-x -x

Equals:

y=-x+5

Now you have:

y=-x+5
x-y=1

Insert -x+5 into y

x-x+5=1

Combine like terms

2x+5=1

Subtract 5.

2x=-4

Divide 2.

Answer: x=-2

How many liters each of a 35% acid solution and a 80% acid solution must be used to produce 60 liters of a 65% acid solution? (R
serg [7]

Solving a system of equations we will see that we need to use <u>40 liters of the 80% acid solution</u>, and the other <u>20 liters are of the 35% acid solution</u>.

<h3>How many liters of each solution do we need to use?</h3>

First, we need to define the variables:

  • x = liters of the 35% acid used.
  • y = liters of the 80% acid used.

We know that we want to produce 60 liters of 65% acid, then we have the system of equations:

x + y = 60

x*0.35 + y*0.80 = 60*0.65

(in the second equation we wrote the percentages in decimal form).

To solve this we need to isolate one of the variables in one equation and then replace it in other one, isolating x we get:

x = 60 - y

Replacing that in the other equation:

(60 - y)*0.35 + y*0.80 = 60*0.65

y*(0.80 - 0.35) = 60*(0.65 - 0.35)

y*0.45 = 60*0.30

y = 60*0.30/0.45 = 40

So we need to use <u>40 liters of the 80% acid solution</u>, and the other <u>20 liters are of the 35% acid solution</u>.
