mixture of waters at two different temperatures.

T1 = 40°C        T2 = 90°C
M1 = ?            M2 = ?
    Mixture:    M =  M1 + M2 = 40 kg          T = 50°C

   T = (M1 * T1  + M2  * T2 ) / (M1 + M2)
     = [ M1 * T1  + (M - M1) * T2 ] / M

   50 = [ M1 * 40  + (40 - M1) * 90 ] / 40
   2000 = 3600 - 50 M1

       M1 = 32 Kg
       M2 = 40 - 32 = 8 kg
