Answer:
Cleanser that costs 50 cents is 1400 liters, Cleanser that costs 80 cents is 600 liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by using <em>simultaneous equations</em>:
- Let us express the question in terms of equations
Let a be cleanser at 50 cents and let b be the cleanser at 80 cents.
Equation 1: 0.5a + 0.8b = 0.59(a+b)
Equation 2: a + b = 2000
From equation 2, a = 2000 - b (Let's call this equation 3)
2. Substituting equations 2 and 3 in Equation 1:
0.5a + 0.8b = 0.59(a+b)
0.5(2000 - b) + 0.8b = 0.59(2000)
1000 - 0.5b + 0.8b = 1180
0.3b = 180
b = 600
Substitute in equation 3:
a = 2000 - 600
a = 1400
As a note, I formed equation 1 because I know for a fact the cost per liter of a and b. I also know it is sold at 0.59 cents per liter. We are selling 2000 liters in this instance, therefore 0.59(2000) = 1180, which in this case is the selling price.
Answer:

After striking a pair of arcs from each endpoint of a line segment, just join the intersection point of the 1st pair (above the segment) with the intersection point
of the 2nd pair (under the segment)
And this is how you construct the segment's perpendicular bisector
