Hi!!
The answer to your question is asking us to make an algerbraic equation for this situation.
H = 5V
Also, H + V = 52,000. H and V can then be solves by solving the 2 equations.
The results are 43,333 and 8,667
If you still don't understand message me
If you do plz brainlest
Answer:
140 ounces of water and 105 ounces of 35% salt solution.
Explanation:
Let be the ounces of water that need to be added and be the ounces of 35% solution that need to to be added.
We know that the total of ounces of water and of 35% solution must be 245 ounces:
35% of is the salt, and since no salt is added with addition of liters of water, this must be equal to the amount of salt in the final 15% solution:
we solve for and get:
We put this value into and solve for to get:
Thus we have 140 ounces of water and 105 ounces of 35% solution.
