Have you ever left your terminal logged in, only to find when you came
back to it that a (supposed) friend had typed "rm -rf ~/*" and was
hovering over the keyboard with threats along the lines of "lend me a
fiver 'til Thursday, or I hit return"?  Undoubtedly the person in
question would not have had the nerve to inflict such a trauma upon
you, and was doing it in jest.  So you've probably never experienced the
worst of such disasters....

A prescription calls for 50 g of a 10 % ointment. The pharmacist only
has a 5 % ointment and the pure ingredient available. How much of
the 5 % ointment and the pure ingredient are needed to compound
the prescription?

Let x be the amount of 5% ointment
Let y be the amount of 100% ointment

x * 5% ointment + y * 100% ointment = 50g of 10% ointment
