Write the following as an expression: How much water do I need to add to l liters of pure alcohol to obtain a solution of 45% alcohol? The answer is an EXPRESSION, not an actual answer

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

amount of water w

l liter of pure alcohol = 100% alcohol

solution is 45 % percent alcohol

total amount of fluid is w+l

(w+l)( .45) = l*.100

Distribute

.45w  + .45 l = 1l

.45 w = 1l - .45l

.45 w = .55l

w = .55l / .45

w =11/9 l

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

2

x=5
