Answer:
120 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the new cost is 144 pounds and this is 20% more, this is 120% of the original price. Remember 100+20 = 120. To find the original price set up a proportion with these values:

Solve for the original price by cross multiplying numerator with denominator.
x(120) = 144(100)
120x = 14400
x= 120 pounds
10 L of 30 % saline solution can be formed by mixing 4 L of 60 % saline solution and 6 L of 10 % saline solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of liters of 60% saline solution
Now we require 10 L of 30% saline solution.
Liter soln % liters saline %
30 % 10 0.3
60 % x 0.6
10 % 10-x 0.1
Now forming the algebraic equation,
0.6x + 0.1 (10-x) = 10 (0.3)
0.6x + 1 - 0.1 x = 3
0.5 x = 2
x = 4 ( 4 l of 60 % solution is required. So 10 % saline solution required is 10 - 4 = 6 L).
Hence, 10 L of 30 % saline solution can be formed by mixing 4 L of 60 % saline solution and 6 L of 10 % saline solution.
3+2 = 5
80/5 =16
16 x 3 = 48
16 x 2 = 32
Answer= 48:32
I think this is right
2x - 5 < 7
2x = 12
x = 6
4x + 10 > 6
4x = - 4
x = - 1
( - 1 , 6 )
i am a mathematics teacher. if anything to ask please pm me
Answer:
{2, 4, 6}
Step-by-step explanation:
the domain is the interval or set of valid x (input) values.
the range is the interval or set of valid y (result) values.
all we need to do is use the given x values in the functional definition and collect the result values. that is the range.
x = -1
y = 2×-1 + 4 = 2
x = 0
y = 2×0 + 4 = 4
x = 1
y = 2×1 + 4 = 6
