Answer: the school paid $80 for the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount that the school paid for the book.

Her school charges a lost book fee equal to 75% of the cost of the book. It means that the amount that the school would charge on a book that cost $x is

75/100 × x = 0.75 × x = 0.75x

Sarah received a notice stating that she owed the school $60 for he lost book. It means that

0.75x = 60

x = 60/0.75

x = $80

jeyben [28]
To get how many customers Sam has, write an equation that will relate to the gross profit. Let n be the customers. Since for 52 weeks, Sam charges $25 per week per person, multiply n by the number of weeks and the charge. The equation is written as $88,400 = 52 weeks x $25 per week x n persons. Divide $88,400 by the product of 52 weeks and the $25 charge. The answer will be 68. The annual operating expense $48,000 is just there to make confusion.

Law Incorporation [45]

Suppose that a large mixing tank initially holds 300 gallons of water is which 50 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Another brine solution is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min, and when the solution is well stirred, it is then pumped out at a slower rate of 2 gal/min. If the concentration of the solution entering is 2 lb/gal, determine a differential equation for the amount of salt A(t) in the tank at time t.
