Answer:
y = -3x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so I assumed that you are setting this equal to 0 or there would be an equal sign in the equation. So basically you just want to gather like terms on each side so the y's on the left and the x's on the right. You then want to solve using algebra and you have your answer! I will add a picture to show my steps.
Suppose you add x liters of pure water to the 10 L of 25% acid solution. The new solution's volume is x + 10 L. Each L of pure water contributes no acid, while the starting solution contains 2.5 L of acid. So in the new solution, you end up with a concentration of (2.5 L)/(x + 10 L), and you want this concentration to be 10%. So we have
and so you would need to add 15 L of pure water to get the desired concentration of acid.
