The answer is 3/4 and it was already simplified
Answer: 4/10
Step-by-step explanation:
4+(-6)/(-2) = 7
5/2+(-3/2)=1
-3/4-5/6 = 1.58
5/8(-3/5) = -3/8
Answer:
750 grams of 60% alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Define x = amount of 60% alloy and y = amount of 20% alloy
Equating the amounts of gold:
0.6x+0.2y = 1000(0.5)
Since there must be 1000 grams total:
x+y = 1000
Writing the 2 resulting equations together:
0.6x + 0.2y = 500
x + y = 1000
Multiply the first equation by 5:
3x + y = 2500
x + y = 1000
Subtracting the 2nd equation from the 1st:
2x = 1500
x = 750
Answer: 750 grams of 60% alloy
15% sale so 22.11 its 85% of original price. To solve this problem we can use proportion
22.10----------85%
x----------------100%
crossmultiply
85x=22.1/*100
85x=2210 /:85
x=26$- its the answer
