OpenStudy (nincompoop):

got any clue how you should solve this ?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

like at least try to come up with something so I know what part you're not getting

Miracrown (miracrown):

First we set up the variables

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

I was going to prefer that he exhausts all his knowledge to come up with a solution

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

I actually would prefer if @Miracrown could help me come up with a basis for my attempts.

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

Shouldn't I do "0.07x + 0.04y = 500" to start off? @Miracrown

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

try to "attempt" so we know what knowledge is lacking

Miracrown (miracrown):

LOL- Ok, so Solution are mixed to make 500 milliliters So X+Y =500. The other equation balances the amount of salt we have .07 ml of salt in the first solution .04ml of salt in the second solution and .05 times 500 ml of salt in the mixture

Miracrown (miracrown):

You can easily solve the system now

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

you're missing this part 0.05 (500)

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

Alright, thank you.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

it says 5% of 500 saline solution

Miracrown (miracrown):

yes and that equaled 25 which I multiplied by 100

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

so the answer is B, correct?
