Profit for August: x
Profit for September: x - 22%x
Total Profit for August & September: $689,000
x + x - 22% x = 689,000
2x - .22x = 689,000
1.78x = 689,000
x = 689,000/1.78
x = 387,078.65
August Profits: $387,078.65
September Profits: 387,078.65 - (22%)(387,078.65) = 387,078.65 - 85,157.30 = 301,921.35
August Profits: $387,078.65
September Profits
$301,921.35
So what you do is (2/3)x-9=7. Add 9 to both sides (2/3)x=16. Multiply by reciprocal on both sides 16 x (3/2). 16 x 3 = 48. 48/2=24
X = the amount of water to add
10 - x = amount of 18% bleach to add
.18(10-x)= .12 x 10
1.8 -.18x =1.2
-.18x = -.6
x = 3 1/3 liters water
therefore 6 2/3 liters bleach
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<u>B. 2</u>
To find MAD, find the mean of the set, then find how far each number is from the mean. Next, find the mean of THAT set of numbers. Yea, I know it's a bit confusing... don't worry!
Find the mean of the set:
12 + 10 + 10 + 8 + 6 + 7 + 7 + 12
72
72 / 8
<u>9</u>
Find how far each number is from 9:
12 - 9 = <u>3</u>
10 - 9 = <u>1</u>
10 - 9 = <u>1</u>
9 - 8 = <u>1</u>
9 - 6 = <u>3</u>
9 - 7 = <u>2</u>
9 - 7 = <u>2</u>
12 - 9 = <u>3</u>
Find the mean of that number set:
{3, 1, 1, 1, 3, 2, 2, 3}
3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 3
16
16 / 8
<u>2</u>
<u>So the answer is 2!</u>
Not so hard after all :D
