<span>Nadine mixes a juice solution that is made from 3 gallons of an 80% juice solution and 1 gallon of a 20% juice solution. What is the percent concentration of the final solution? =</span>65%
Jake:
Mon- 4 boxes
End of the week- 3x the boxes on Mon
3 x 4 = 12
Sally:
Mon- 2 boxes
End of the week- 4x the boxes on Mon
4 x 2 = 8
12 + 8 = 20 boxes total
5x+2y=3
-5x on both sides
2y=3-5x
divide by 2 on both sides
y=3/2-5/2x
rewrite in order (optional depending on teacher)
y=-5/2x+3/2
Step-by-step answer:
Given:
Initial monthly salary = $5000
New salary = 10% less
Salary a year after = 15% more
Solution:
New salary
= 5000 * (100-10)%
= 5000 * 90%
= 5000 * 90/100
= 4500
Salary a year after
= 4500 * (100+15%)
= 4500 * 115%
= 4500 * 115/100
= 45*115
= 5175
