8 0

Here's my step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you see the phrase "a number" in a problem like this, then they want you to use a variable. Let's use <em>n</em> for number and translate from English to Algebraic.

- The product of 2 more than a number and 10 is 36 more than 8 times the number.

- The product of 2 more than <em>n</em> and 10 is 36 more than 8 times <em>n.</em>

<em>- </em>The product of 2 + <em>n</em> and 10 is 36 + 8<em>n.</em>

<em>- </em>(2 + <em>n</em>)(10) is 36 + 8<em>n.</em>

<em>- </em>(2 + <em>n</em>)(10) = 36 + 8<em>n</em>

Let's solve.

(2 + <em>n</em>)(10) = 36 + 8<em>n</em>

20 + 10<em>n</em> = 36 + 8<em>n</em>

10<em>n</em> - 8<em>n</em> = 36 - 20

2<em>n</em> = 16

<em>n</em> = 8

Hope this helps, let me know if I made a mistake or if you have any questions!

A florist has 45 tulips in his shop. 20% of the tulips are yellow. How many tulips are yellow?
EastWind [94]
Multiply 45 by 1/5, or 0.2, and you will get an answer of 9, which is the amount of tulips that were yellow. You will know that you need to multiply 45 by either 1/5 or 0.2 because you can make a fraction 20/100 and simplify it to 1/5, or you can move the decimal point in 20.% two times to the left getting the decimal to divide the amount of tulips by

A little help would be appreciated!!!!!
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Braxton is testing 2 different types of motor oil in his truck to determine which one will last longer.

Now, he adds Brand A to the truck and Brand B to his sister's car.

Now, as Braxton wants to test the motor oil in his truck so there is no need of adding the motor oil to his sister's car as by doing so he cannot result in to a meaningful conclusion.

So, Braxton need to add both the motor oil into his truck one by one.

Hence, The conclusion of Braxton is not valid because he added Brand B to his sister's car, not the truck.

Therefore, The correct option is A.
