One canned juice is 15% orange juice another 10% orange juice. How many liters of each should be mixed together in order to get 5l that is 11% orange juice

Respuesta :

Equation:
0.15x + 0.10(5-x) = 0.11*5
---
Multiply thru by 100:
15x + 10*5 - 10x = 11*5

---
5x = 5
x = 1 liter (amt. 15% oj needed)
----
5-x = 4 liters (amt of 10% oj needed)
