(5 points) part b: how many liters of cranberry juice are present in the punch? show your work. (5 points)

Given that Tom is making a punch that contains 80% cranberry juice and the rest ginger ale. The punch has 2 liters of ginger ale.

Part A:

Let the number of liters of cranberry juice be represented by = x

Then the total number of liters of the punch is given by

Now we have   (ginger ale is also added)

Solving this, we get

Further solving we get x = 2

So, the required equation with one variable is :

Part B.

From part A we have-

We will find x now, that is liters of cranberry added.

We have x = = 8

Hence, there is 8 liters of cranberry juice in the punch.
