The meaning of the solution is; Therefore, 1.2 liters of the strawberry concentrate and 0.8 liters of the lemon concentrate.

What is the solution to the system of equations?

It follows from the task content that the variables are;

let x be the amount of 30% strawberry concentrate.

let y be the amount of 55% lemon concentrate.

The equations of the linear system according to the task content are as follows;

  • x + y = 2
  • 0.30x + 0.55y = (2 ×0.4)

From the first equation; x = 2-y;

Hence, upon substitution; we have;

0.30(2-y) + 0.55y = 0.8

0.25y = 0.2.

y = 0.2/0.25 = 0.8L.

Hence, x = 2- 0.8 = 1.2L.
