Find x if 20% of x equals 12% of ( x+20)

Mathematics
1 answer:
sergey [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find x

Given that:

20% of x = 12 % of (x +20)

This can be written as:

0.2(x) = 0.12 (x + 20)

0.2x = 0.12x + 2.4

Subtracting 0.12x from both sides we get:

0.2x - 0.12x = 0.12x - 0.12x + 2.4

0.08x = 2.4

Dividing both sides by x we get:

0.08/0.08x = 2.4/0.08

x = 30

I hope it will help you!

Which gives the correct values for points A, B, C, and D?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

<em>The correct answer is: A</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points on a Numeric Line</u>

The numeric line shown in the figure has four points A, B, C, and D. It's clear that each marked division of the line has a value of 1/4 units and all four points are below the reference zero, thus all are negative.

Point A is clearly on the -2 mark, thus

A=-2

Point B is one mark above A, thus it's located at:

B=-2+\frac{1}{4}=-\frac{7}{4}=-1\frac{3}{4}

B=-1\frac{3}{4}

Point C is one mark below -1, thus:

C=-1-\frac{1}{4}=-1\frac{1}{4}

Finally, point D is one mark below 0:

D=-\frac{1}{4}

The correct answer is: A
