<span>We have 75 mL of 4% sugar solution.
We have to add a 30% sugar </span><span>solution to make a 50% </span><span>sugar solution.
75 * .04 + .30x = .50 * (75 +x)
3 + .30x = 37.5 +.50x
I can't get the equation to solve.
Did you type it correctly? For one thing, you have the percentages typed as .30 % and 4%. Are the decimal places in the correct positions?
Also, no matter how much 30% sugar solution you add, it will NEVER increase to 50%.

30-20=10
This means that the price of the item increased by 50% or 10.
Answer:
D) x=5, x=-5.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-25=0
factor
(x+5)(x-5)=0
x+5=0, x-5=0,
x=0-5=-5,
x=0+5=5.
