A 12 oz bottle of shampoo last 16 weeks. How long would you expect an 18 oz bottle to last

If a 12 oz bottle of shampoo lasted for 16 weeks, we have a ratio of 12:16 which can be shortened to 3:4.

Now if we have 18 oz bottle we know that it's 1/2 more than 12 oz bottle, so the ratio will be also 1/2 more. So if it was 12:16, the new ratio will be:

12 + (1/2 * 12) : 16 + (1/2 * 16)
12 + 6 : 16 + 8
18 : 24

It means that 18 oz bottle should last for 24 weeks. Of course the ratio has to stay the same in its lowest form in both situations and as 18:24 can be shortened to 3:4, it proves it's correct :)

Find the value of x
Doss [256]

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The three angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees

x + 30 + (3x-10) = 180

Combine like terms

4x +20 = 180

Subtract 20 from each side

4x+20-20 = 180-20

4x= 160

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 =160/4

x = 40

Find the amount paid for the loan.<br><br> $2000 at 12% for 3 years
Free_Kalibri [48]
They paid $720

Here's why:
The formula to this is Interest = Principal x Rate x Time or i = prt
Principal = $2000
Rate = 12%
Time = 3 years
2000 x .12 x 3 = i PEMDAS
2000 x .12 = 240
240 x 3 = 720
i = $720
