Answer
7.5 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Since adding x grams of salt will bring th percentage of the salt to 25
Hence. 10% of the 50 gram gives. 5 gram initial salt before it is added.
5+ x/ 50 * 100= 25/
5+x /50 = 0.25
5+x = 12.5
X= 12.5- 5
X= 7.5pounds
Hey there! :)
Answer:
x = -24.
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in the values to find the value of 'k':
-3 = k(6)
Divide both sides by 6 to solve for 'k':
-3/6 = k
k = -1/2
Plug this into the equation to solve for the value of x when y= 12:
12 = -1/2(x)
Divide both sides by -1/2:
-24 = x
x = -24.
