Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Product of 5 and a number: 5n

Six more than that would be 5n + 6

Finally, "six more than the product of 5 and a number, decreased by one" would be

5n + 6 - 1, or 5n + 5

Robert makes 50 litres of green paint by mixing litres of yellow paint and litres of blue paint in the ratio 2:3.

podryga [215]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Cost of each liter of yellow paint:

Yellow paint is sold in 5 litre tins and ach tin costs £26, thus the cost of one liter is £26 / 5 liters = £5.2 per liter.

2. Cost of each liter of blue paint:

Blue paint is sold in 10 litre tins and each tin costs £48, thus the cost of one liter of blue paint is £48 / 10 liters = £4.8 per liter

3. Cost of each liter of green paint.

Green paint is made by mixing yellow paint and blue paint in the ratio 2:3

Thus, 5 liters of green paint will cost:

2 liters yellow paint: 2 liter × £5.2 / liter = £10.4

3 liters blue paint: 3 liter × £4.8 / liter = £14.4

========== ========

5 liters green paint: 5 liter £24.8

Cost of one liter of gree paint: £24.8 / 5 liter = £4.96 / liter

4. Profit

Price of each liter of green paint: £66.96 / 10 liters = £6.696 / liter = £6.70 / liter

Profit per liter = price per liter - cost per liter = £6.70/liter - £4.96 / liter = £1.74 / liter

Percentage profit = profit per liter / cost per liter × 100

Percentage profit = (£1.74 / liter) / (£4.96/liter) × 100 = 35.08% = 35%

Weight = mass * g where g = gravitational force

so a weight of 150 pounds would be 150 / 6 = 25 on the moon.
The mass would be the same as on earth.

Solve with work shown. X/3+6 equals -6

8090 [49]

We start out with x/3+6=-6. Subtract 6 from both sides, and you get x/3=-12. Multiply the equation by three and you get x=-36. x=-36 should be your final answer.
