X liters of 10% + (30 - x) liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15% 

<span>Plugging in the numbers </span>
<span>x(10) + (30 - x)22 = 30(15) </span>

<span>Distribute </span>
<span>10x + 660 - 22x = 450 </span>

<span>Combine like terms </span>
<span>-12x = -210 </span>

<span>Divide both sides by -12 </span>
<span>x = 17.5 </span>
<span>30 - x = 12.5 </span>

<span>17.5 liters of 10% + 12.5 liters of 22% = 30 liters of 15%

THE TRICK IS TO JUST USE ONLY ONE VARIABLE</span>

Plssss hellpppppp meeeeeeeww
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

When the numerators are the same, the denominator that is bigger has a lesser value. In this case, the inequality > shows that \frac{1}{10} is bigger than the fraction next to it so in order to find a fraction that is lesser in value than  \frac{1}{10}, we need to find a denominator that is <u>more than 10</u>, since 10 is the denominator of the first fraction. The only number more than 10 in the options is 12, so 12 is the answer.

Write an equation of each line in standard form with integer coefficients.<br> 4. y = 2.4x + 1.8
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

<h2>12x - 20y = -9</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation of a line:

Ax+By=C

We have

4y=2.4x+1.8

Convert

4y=2.4x+1.8          <em>multiply both sides by 10</em>

40y=24x+18          <em>subtract 24x from both sides</em>

-24x+40y=18            <em>change the signs</em>

24x-40y=-18          <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

12x-20y=-9
