Answer=10 10gram weights
10*10grams=100grams
therefore the weight would be even on both sides
Let x be a variable.
Using the ratio and the given number of 117, we can create the following formula:
1x + 3x + 9x = 117, where 3x is the cups of onion
Simplify this equation.
13x = 117
Divide both sides by 13
x = 9
We want to solve for 3x, so multiply both sides by 3
3x = 27
As I started earlier, 3x is how many cups of onions is needed; thus, 27 is our answer. Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x = -b +or- the square root of (b^2-4ac) ALL / 2a

We need to separate his total earnings out into the different categories:
Category 1 (2%): 30,000
Category 2 (3%): 60,000-30,000 = 30,000
Category 3 (5%): 92,000-60,000 = 32,000
To calculate a percentage we multiply by that percentage divided by 100.
Now we can work out the commissions:
1) 30,000*0.02 = $600
2) 30,000*0.03 = $900
3) 32,000*0.05 = $1600
Adding these together, we get $3100
