$800 increased by 25% = 1.25 x 800 = $1,000
Step-by-step explanation:
r - 18 = 27
r = 27 + 18
r = 45
...
-14x + 14 = 8
A hot-air balloon has an 8-foot diameter that is changing at a rate of 14 foot per minute. How long in minutes, x, will it take until the balloon has a diameter of 14 feet?
We observe that when we clear x we have:
-14x = 14-8
-14x = 6
Which means that the balloon will not reach a diameter of 14 feet
