Given that the hot chocolate is made of 480 grams of milk and 20 grams of cacao.

We need to determine the percentage of cacao in hot chocolate.

<u>The percentage of cacao:</u>

The total grams of hot chocolate can be determined by adding the total grams of milk and the total grams of cacao.

Total grams of hot chocolate = Grams of Milk + Grams of cacao

Total grams of hot chocolate = 480 + 20 = 500 grams.

Thus, the total grams of hot chocolate is 500 grams.

Now, we shall find the percentage of cacao.

The percentage of cacao is given by

$\frac{100}{500}\times 20$

Simplifying, the values, we get,

$\frac{2000}{500}=4\%$

Thus, the percentage of cacao is 4%

Solve for x in terms of r, s and t : s=2x+t/r

Anna007 [38]

For this case we have the following equation:

$s = \frac {2x + t} {r}$

We must clear the value of the variable "x" as a function of r, s and t:

If we multiply by "r" on both sides of the equation we have:

$rs =2x + t$

If we subtract "t" on both sides of the equation we have:

$rs-t = 2x$

If we divide by "2" on both sides of the equation we have:

$x = \frac {rs-t} {2}$

Thus, the value of the variable "x" is:

$x = \frac {rs-t} {2}$

Answer:

$x = \frac {rs-t} {2}$

Last week at a festival, a man sold 5 times as many tie-dyed T-shirts as silk-screened shirts. He sold 240 shirts altogether.

Alja [10]

Let silk shirts be x,so tie dye shirts 5x.
X+5x=240
6x=240
X=40
So 5x=200

Members of a school sports team are raising money by selling custom water bottles at school activities. They plan to sell each b

andre [41]

Answer:

B. (13 - 6)n - 40

Step-by-step explanation:

If each bottle costs them $6 and they are selling each one for $13, the amount of money they make for each bottle can be represented by (13 - 6)n

This is because this finds the profit per bottle, then multiplies it by n, which is the number of bottles they sell.

Then, since they spent $40 on advertising, subtract 40 from this.

The expression will be (13 - 6)n - 40.

The correct answer is B. (13 - 6)n - 40
