Let x be your first alloy
2/5x+7/10(30-x)=1/2(30)
4x+210-7x=150
3x=60
x=20
So, you need 20 lbs of the first alloy, and 10 parts of the second to make 30 lbs of half iron and half silver alloy!
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so on Saturday there is a 30% sale plus she comes early so +10% and that makes 40% off.
10% of 400=40
multiply by 4 to get 40%, 40*4=40%
40%=160
400-160=240
Hope this helps
Answer:
B. 1 over 8
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the probability of the spinner landing on 5, we need to first know what probability is,
probability = required outcome/all possible outcome
since the spinner is divided into 8 equal sections and each section contains number from 1-8, this implies there are total of 64 numbers on the spinner. This implies that all possible outcome = 64
In each section there is 5, since there are 8 sections on the spinner, the number of 5's on the spinner are 8.
This implies that the required outcome = 8
but
probability = required outcome/all possible outcome
probability (of the spinner landing on 5) = 8/64 =1/8
5+x=-9
Use the subtractive property of equality to isolate x.
5+x=-9
-5 -5
x=-14
The value that satisfies x is -14. You can check your work by substituting x as -14 and checking if the equation is satisfied.
5+x=-9
x=-14
5+(-14)=-9
5-14=-9
-9=-9
the answer is correct. Succinctly, x=-14.
Answer:
x=9
