Answer:

x > 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3x - 5) < 2(3x + 4)

Divide both sides by 2.

-2(3x - 5) < 3x + 4

Distribute on the left side.

-6x + 10 < 3x + 4

Subtract 3x from both sides.

-9x + 10 < 4

Subtract 10 from both sides.

-9x < - 6

Divide both sides by -9. Remember that when you divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign changes direction.

x > (-6)/(-9)

x > 6/9

x > 2/3

The organizers of a fair projected a 25 percent increase in attendance this year over that of last year, but attendance this yea

Gnom [1K]

Answer: 64 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume attendance last year to be equal to "x"

- An increase in percentage sees us add the percentage amount to 100.

- A decrease in percentage sees us subtract the percentage amount from 100.

Projected attendance = ((100+25)/100) * x = 1.25x

Actual attendance = ((100-20)/100) * x = 0.80x

Hence ratio of a actual to projected attendance = 0.80x/1.25x = 0.64

Convert into percentage = 0.64 * 100 = 64 %

a state charges an 8.5% sales tax and a 10% excise tax on gasoline. he purchased $25 of gasoline before tax. How should he find

Mama L [17]

Answer:

The total money spend on total tax of purchase is $4.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The percentage of sales tax applied on gasoline purchase = 8.5%

The percentage of excise tax applied on gasoline purchase = 10%

The price of gasoline before tax = $25

Let The total money on total tax of purchase = $x

Now, Total percentage of tax = sales tax percentage + excise tax percentage

i.e Total percentage of tax = 8.5% + 10%

Or, Total percentage of tax = 18.5%

<u>Again</u>

total money on total tax of purchase = $25 of total total tax percentage

Or, x = $25 × 18.5%

Or, x = $25 × $\dfrac{18.5}{100}$

Or, x = $25 × 0.185

∴ x = $4.625

So,The total money on total tax of purchase = x = $4.625

Hence,The total money spend on total tax of purchase is $4.625 Answer
