Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:
And solving for Y we got:
And solving for X from equation (3) we got:
So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem we can work with the concentration of water and orange juice.
Let X the amount for the orange juice with 25% content and Y the amount for the orange juice with 5% of content
Using the concentration of orange juice we have:
(1)
And for the water we have:
(2)
If we solve for X from equation (1) we got:
(3)
Replcaing equation (3) into equation (2) we got:
And solving for Y we got:
And solving for X from equation (3) we got:
So we need 3L of orange juice with 25% of concentration and 17 L of orange juice with 5% of concentration
It would be 
indicating we start at 5 but do NOT include 5, and we keep going onward to positive infinity.
The curved parenthesis tells us not to include the endpoint.
