Answer:

30% discount

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent discount write a proportion.

\frac{1344}{1920}=\frac{x}{100}

Cross multiply numerator with denominator of each fraction to solve for x.

1344(100) = 1920(x)

134400 = 1920x

70 = x

This means you pay 70% of the price. The discount was 30%.

A chemistry teacher needs to mix a 20% salt solution with a 80% salt solution to make 25 qt of a 44% salt solution. How many qua
NNADVOKAT [17]
Let there be x quarts of the 20% salt solution, and (25 - x) quarts of the 80% salt solution.
Then the total amount of salt in the 20% portion would be 0.2x, while that from the 80% portion would be (0.8)(25 - x). This would have to total up to (0.44)(25) in the final solution, so the equation is:
0.2x + 0.8(25 - x) = (0.44)(25)
-0.6x + 20 = 11
x = 15 quarts of the 20% salt solution
25 - x = 10 quarts of the 80% salt solution
