$30 = 75%, so divide it by three and you got your 25%, which ia $10.
$10 * 4 = $40.

So the answer is $40.

Hope this helps.

ohaa [14]

Expression is 900 - 75n

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Maximum watts that can be used is 900W. Find amount of watts used by n light bulbs.

⇒ Watts used by n light bulbs = 75 × n = 75n

Step 2: To find the remaining amount of wattage, subtract the maximum possible W and the watts used by the light bulbs.

⇒ 900 - 75n

. An individual wishes to invest $5000 over the next year in two types of investment: Investment A yields 5%, and investment B y

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The amount invested at Investment A must be greater than or equal to $2,750

The amount invested at Investment B must be less than or equal to $2,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the amount invested at Investment A yields 5%

y -----> the amount invested at Investment B yields 8%

we know that

$x+y=5,000$

$x=5,000-y$ -----> equation A

$x \geq 0.25(5,000)$

$x \geq \$1,250$ -----> inequality B

$y \leq 0.50(5,000)$

$y \leq \$2,250$ -----> inequality C

$x \geq \frac{1}{2}y$ -----> inequality D

Substitute equation A in the inequality D and solve for y

$5,000-y \geq \frac{1}{2}y$

Multiply by 2 both sides

$10,000-2y \geq y$

Multiply by -1 both sides

$-10,000+2y \leq -y$

Adds y both sides

$-10,000+2y+y \leq 0$

$-10,000+3y \leq 0$

adds 10,000 both sides

$3y \leq 10,000$

Divide by 3 both sides

$y \leq \$3,333.33$ -----> inequality E

therefore

<em>Solve for y</em>

we have

$y \leq \$2,250$ -----> inequality C

$y \leq \$3,333.33$ -----> inequality E

The solution of inequality C and inequality E is

$y \leq \$2,250$

For y=2,250

x=5,000-y ----> x=5,000-2,250=2,750

so

$x \geq \$2,750$ -----> inequality F

<em>Solve for x</em>

we have

$x \geq \$1,250$ -----> inequality B

$x \geq \$2,750$ -----> inequality F

The solution of inequality B and inequality F is

$x \geq \$2,750$

therefore

The amount invested at Investment A must be greater than or equal to $2,750

The amount invested at Investment B must be less than or equal to $2,250

Please help me tysm if you do

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

R=155°

S=25°

T=155°

Step-by-step explanation:

R + 25° =180°

R = 180° - 25°

R = 155°

(2) S + 155° =180°

S = 180° - 155°

S = 25°

T = R because t is opposite of r
