50 ounces of 15% saline solution contains 0.15*50 = 7.5 ounces of salt.
Let x be the amount of pure water you add to this solution. Then you end up with (x + 50) ounces of this new solution. The amount of salt stays the same.
You want the new solution to have a concentration of 10%. This means you need
7.5 / (x + 50) = 0.1
==> 7.5 = 0.1(x + 50)
==> 7.5 = 0.1x + 5
==> 2.5 = 0.1x
==> 2.5/0.1 = 0.1x/0.1
==> x = 25
Solve for y like the top equation:
2y = -4ax + 11
2y/2 = -4ax/2 + 11/2
y = -2ax + 11/2
Answer:
1) $16.35
2) 75%
3) $245
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Jada earns = $15 per hour
9% increase = 15 * 9/100 = $1.35
Increased Jada's pay = 15+1.35 = $16.35
2) Markup = selling price - cost= $350 - 200= $150
Markup % = 
\
= 
= 75%
3) Jada's sister commission is 3.5% of $7000
= 
= $245
Answer:
Let v = ml of 100% vinegar
Then 150-v = ml of dressing
v + .05(150-v) = .24(150)
v + 7.5 - .05v = 36
.95v = 28.5
v = 28.5/.95
v = 30 ml of vinegar
dressing = 150-30 = 120 m
0 bcz modulas function every negative no. in positive
therefore it becomes 6 - 6 I.e equal to 0
