2x - 4y = 32
2x - 8y = 48
2x - 2x - 4x - (-8y) = 32 - 48
4x = -16
x = -16 ÷ 4
x = -4
substitute your value of x into any of the original equations
2 (-4) - 4y = 32
-8 - 4y = 32
-4y = 32 + 8
-4y = 40
y = 40 ÷ -4
y = -10
He will mix some 20% solution and some 70% solution to make 60% solution.
Let x = number of liters of 20% solution.
Let y = number of liters of 70% solution.
He wants to make 50 liters of 60% solution, so
x + y = 50 First Equation
The amount of acid in x amount of 20% solution is 20% of x, or 0.2x
The amount of acid in y amount of 70% solution is 70% of y, or 0.7y
The amount of acid in 50 liters of 60% solution is 60% of 50 liters, or 0.6 * 50 = 30
Now we add the amounts of acid.
0.2x + 0.7y = 30 Second Equation
x + y = 50
0.2x + 0.7y = 30
-0.2x - 0.2y = -10
0.2x + 0.7y = 30
------------------------
0.5y = 20
y = 40
x + y = 50
x + 40 = 50
x = 10
Answer: He needs 10 liters of 20% solution and 40 liters of 70% solution.
