The X variable is defied as the number of dimes collected.
Step-by-step explanation:
The X is next to 10 cents so therefor i can instantly infer that it is talking about the dimes. The question is asking how many dimes were collected so then that means that x would have to multiply the dimes to count how much money they raised. So we can now fully infer that the X variable is defied as the number of dimes collected.
we know that 60% of x is 120. we can rewrite this to .6x = 120, to get x we divide both sides by .6, so x = 200. now 120 + 30 = 150. then we divide 150 out of 200 which is .75 it 75%
