Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let x = the amount of 5% solution and y = the amount of pure alcohol, we can set up that

.05x+y is the amount of alcohol in our resulting mixture, and x+y is the total amount in our resulting mixture (which we know is 380)

so we also know that:

(.05x+y)/380 = .6

If we simplify this we come up with:

.05x+y=228

and we know x+y=380

If we solve this as a system of equations, we will find that:

x=160 ml

y=220 ml

Gwar [14]
The answer is D. y = -2x + 20. This is because it has a negative slope (-2x). When a number in a slope-intercept equation has the variable (x), that determines the positive or negative association. If it is a positive slope, it travels up from left to right. If it is a negative slope, it travels down from left to right.
