Let x be the amount of the solution containing 10% of the chemical. Then, the solution with 40% chemical becomes 10 - x. The equation for balancing the chemical content of the solution is,
0.10x + 0.40(10 - x) = 0.25(10)
The value of x is 5. Hence, the druggist should mix 5 ounces of each. There are 2.5 ounces of chemical in the final mixture.

Answer:
-x^5 - 7x^4 + x^2 + (1/8)x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the given -9+1/8x-7x^4+x^2-x^5 in descending order of the variable x:
-9+1/8x
-x^5 - 7x^4 + x^2 + (1/8)x - 9
