Not sure is this is right but if the chemist wants to make the solution 35% acidic then he can use all of the 30% acid and 5% of the 45% acid.
y = -1 + 3/8x
2x - 5y = 6
Substitute the first equation into the second equation, since y is already by itself.
2x - 5(-1 + 3/8x) = 6
2x + 5 - 15/8x = 6
2x - 15/8x = 1
16/8x - 15/8x = 1
1/8x = 1 Multiply 8 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 8
Plug x into either of the equations.
y = -1 + 3/8(8)
y = -1 + 3
y = 2
2(8) - 5y = 6
16 - 5y = 6
-5y = -10
y = 2

When two quantities have a relationship, there is a corresponding equation that could describe it. These two quantities may be expressed in variables of x and y. When you plot the graph, you may see a line or a curve. This presents the trend of the relationship of the two quantities when the independent variable changes.
Notice that <em>f(x)</em> is only defined over the intervals 0 ≤ <em>x</em> < 3 and 3 < <em>x</em> ≤ 6; that is, all real numbers <em>x</em> between 0 and 3, and between 3 and 6, but <u>not including 3</u>. Since there is no definition for <em>f(x)</em> at <em>x</em> = 3, the value of <em>f</em> (3) is undefined.
