The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to find out how much 100% pure milk should be added to the existing 800 liters of 80% adulterated milk so that the final mixture has a purity between 90% and 95%. ### Step 1: Calculate the amount of pure milk in the existing solution The existing solution is 800 liters of 80% milk. \[ \text{Amount of pure milk} = 80\% \text{ of } 800 = \frac{80}{100} \times 800 = 640 \text{ liters} \] **Hint:** To find the amount of pure milk, multiply the total volume by the percentage of pure milk. ### Step 2: Let \( x \) be the amount of 100% pure milk to be added We will add \( x \) liters of pure milk to the existing 640 liters of pure milk. ### Step 3: Calculate the total volume of the new mixture The total volume of the new mixture will be: \[ \text{Total volume} = 800 + x \text{ liters} \] ### Step 4: Set up the inequality for purity We want the purity of the new mixture to be between 90% and 95%. The percentage of pure milk in the new mixture can be expressed as: \[ \text{Purity} = \frac{\text{Amount of pure milk}}{\text{Total volume}} \times 100 = \frac{640 + x}{800 + x} \times 100 \] We need to set up the inequalities: \[ 90 < \frac{640 + x}{800 + x} \times 100 < 95 \] ### Step 5: Solve the left inequality First, we solve the left part of the inequality: \[ 90 < \frac{640 + x}{800 + x} \times 100 \] Dividing both sides by 100: \[ 0.9 < \frac{640 + x}{800 + x} \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 0.9(800 + x) < 640 + x \] Expanding and simplifying: \[ 720 + 0.9x < 640 + x \] Rearranging terms: \[ 720 - 640 < x - 0.9x \] \[ 80 < 0.1x \] Dividing by 0.1: \[ 800 < x \] ### Step 6: Solve the right inequality Now we solve the right part of the inequality: \[ \frac{640 + x}{800 + x} \times 100 < 95 \] Dividing both sides by 100: \[ \frac{640 + x}{800 + x} < 0.95 \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 640 + x < 0.95(800 + x) \] Expanding and simplifying: \[ 640 + x < 760 + 0.95x \] Rearranging terms: \[ 640 - 760 < 0.95x - x \] \[ -120 < -0.05x \] Dividing by -0.05 (remember to reverse the inequality): \[ 2400 > x \] ### Step 7: Combine the results From the two inequalities, we have: \[ 800 < x < 2400 \] ### Conclusion The amount of 100% pure milk that should be added to the existing solution should be between 800 liters and 2400 liters. **Final Answer:** \( x \in (800, 2400) \) ---
