12x8=96
<span>Dr. Graham currently has two acid solutions.
60% acid AND 20% acid </span>
Dr. Graham needs 30 L of a 50% acid solution
We set up 2 equations in which s = 60% acid and t = 20% acid
A) s + t = 30
B) .60s + .20t = (.50 * 30)
We multiply equation A by -.20
A) = -.20s -.20t = -6 then we add it to B)
B) .60s + .20t = 15
.40s = 9
s = 22.5
t = 7.5
So, she needs to mix 22.5 liters of 60% acid with 7.5 liters of 20% acid.

Answer:
y = 23x-82
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is written in the form y = mx+b
We need to find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (79-56)/(7-6)
= 23/1
The slope is 23
y= 23x +b
Put in a point for x and y to determine b
10 =23(4) +b
10 =92 +b
Subtract 92 from each side
10-92 = 92-92 +b
-82 =b
The equation is
y = 23x-82
