Answer:  The correct option is

(A) x < 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that one-third of a number is greater than five less than twice the number.

We are to select the inequality that is TRUE.

Let the required number be represented by x.

Then, according to the given information,we have

\dfrac{1}{3}x>2x-5\\\\\\\Rightarrow x>3(2x-5)\\\\\Rightarrow x>6x-15\\\\\Rightarrow x-6x>-15\\\\\Rightarrow -5x>-15\\\\\Rightarrow 5x-b~~~\Rightarrow a

Thus, the true statement is x < 3.

Option (A) is CORRECT.

Ann increased the quantities of all the ingredients in a recipe by 60\%60%60, percent. She used 808080 grams (\text{g})(g)left p
kari74 [83]

Answer:

50 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of cheese required by the recipe be "x"

Ann increased 60% from original amount and then used up 80 grams. Thus:

<em>Original, increased by 60%, became 80</em>

<em />

This translated to algebraic equation would be:

x + 0.6x = 80

<u>Note:</u>  60% = 60/100 = 0.6

So we can solve the above equation for "x" and get our answer. Shown below:

x + 0.6x = 80\\1.6x=80\\x=\frac{80}{1.6}\\x=50

Hence,

the recipe required 50 grams of cheese
