Answer: n = 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−2(4n−6)=22
(−2)(4n)+(−2)(−6)=22(Distribute)
−8n+12=22
Step 2: Subtract 12 from both sides.
−8n+12−12=22−12
−8n=10
Step 3: Divide both sides by -8.
-8n/-8 = 10/-8
n = 5/4
Answer:
The answer is 61.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, the numbers are: x, (x+2), (x+4)
Now, x+x+2+x+4 = 183
3x + 6 = 183
3x = 177
x = 59
So, second number would be: (x+2) = (59+2) = 61
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If A, B, and C are in the ratio of 2:3:5 and they are each getting some amount of money in that ratio, then to find the total amount of money they split is found in Ax + Bx + Cx and we need to solve for x. What we are told is that the smallest share = 210 and obviously A is the smallest share. Therefore,
2x = 210 and x = 105.
The total sum = 210 + 3(105) + 5(105) so
Total sum = 210 + 315 + 525
Total sum = 1050 and
C's share is 525 and
B's share is 315
Answer:
112.5 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of grape juice to add. Then the total amount of grape juice in the mix is ...
0.15(1800) +x = 0.20(1800+x)
270 +x = 360 + 0.2x . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
0.8x = 90 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 270+0.2x
x = 90/0.8 = 112.5 . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
112 mL of grape juice should be added to make a mix that is 20% grape juice.
