Answer:

500 and 900

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 300) + 2(x + 100) = 3300 ← distribute parenthesis

3x - 900 + 2x + 200 = 3300

5x - 700 = 3300 ( add 700 to both sides )

5x = 4000 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 800

Then

cost of book = x - 300 = 800 - 300 = 500

cost of pen = x + 100 = 800 + 100 = 900

Simora [160]

Answer:

0.1. B) 50%

0.2 A) Psicología

Step-by-step explanation:

01. Dejemos que 'x' e 'y' representen el porcentaje de boquichicos y carachamas en la piscifactoría, tenemos;

Dado que el 30% de los boquichicos es el 20% del número de carachamas

30% x = 20% y

∴ 0.3 · x = 0.2 · y

Por lo tanto, tenemos;

x / y = 0,2 / 0,3 = 2/3

Por lo tanto, por cada 100% de pescado, tenemos;

x + y = 100%

x = 2/3 · y

2/3 · y + y = 100%

5 · años / 3 = 100

y = 100 × 3/5 = 60%

El porcentaje de carachamas en la finca, y = 60%

∴ x = 100% - y = 100% - 60% = 40%

El porcentaje de boquichicos en la finca, x = 40%

Por lo tanto, tenemos el 80% del pescado en la granja, obtenemos;

Si hay 100 peces en la granja, 80% = 80 peces

Pero el número de los 100 peces que son boquichicos en la granja = 40% × 100 = 40 peces

Por lo tanto, los boquichicos son la mitad del 80% del número de peces o el 50% de los peces en la piscifactoría.

La opción correcta es;

B) 50%

02. Tenemos;

El costo de un libro de psicología> El costo de un libro en inglés

El costo de un libro de matemáticas> El costo de un libro de historia

El costo de un libro de psicología> El costo de un libro de matemáticas

Por lo tanto, tenemos;

El costo de un libro de psicología> El costo de un libro de matemáticas> El costo de un libro de historia

∴ El libro de Psicología es más caro que todos los demás libros y, por tanto, es el libro más caro

La opción correcta es;

A) Psicología
