Bruce has a bottle that contains 60% of lemon juice and the rest water. The bottle has 1 liter of water.

Part A: Write an equation in one variable that can be used to find the total number of liters of lemon juice and water in the bottle. Define the variable used in the equation. (5 points)

Given:
lemon juice = 60% in the bottle
water = 1 liter.

Since lemon juice is 60% and the rest is water. Water is 40% of the bottle.

1 liter of water is equivalent to 40% of the bottle.

1/40% = 2.50 liters amount of total liquid in the water.

2.50 x 60% = 1.5 liters of lemon juice.

0.6x + 0.4x = 2.5
